Today, students spend 80% of their study-time taking notes, yet are forced to choose between two broken extremes: manual note-taking, which is messy and time-consuming, and pure AI tools like Otter AI, which focus on passive note-taking, leading to poor retention and zero cognitive engagement.So, we are building Snaplearn which is a middle ground: a collaborative AI note-taking platform that transforms PDFs, lecture recordings, videos, and audio into structured, fully editable notes. Students can generate flashcards, quizzes, and podcasts from notes - resulting in active recall and retention of concepts. Students can also collaborate in real-time with AI assistance, editing together, refining ideas, or clarifying complex topics directly within their notes – resulting in active cognitive engagement, deeper understanding. Unlike passive AI tools, it ensures students are truly learning, not just capturing information
