Your list keeps growing — where do you even start?

Summarize the YouTube videos and PDFs you've saved up, and keep them neatly organized.

Does any of this sound familiar?

  • Buried under a growing watch-later list (33, office worker)

    Ooh, I should watch this properly later.

    I bookmarked every useful video I came across on my commute, and now they've piled up. Watching them all would take half a day.

  • Overwhelmed before reading a single page (27, graduate student)

    Just reading it will use up all my energy.

    I finally found the research I needed — 98 pages to get through, and none of it in my language. And this can't be the only source. I'm overwhelmed already.

  • Underwhelmed by AI summaries (23, university student)

    Why does it keep summarizing whatever it feels like?

    I handed it to an AI, and it ignored the context and summarized whatever it liked. Rewriting the prompt every single time is exhausting.

It's time to try LiveWiki.

LiveWiki turns the videos and documents you need to get through into accurate, easy-to-read summaries.

You'll grasp it all without watching every minute, and without the effort. Focus only on what actually matters to you.

AI summarizes the essentials quickly, lowering the barrier to digital material.

STEP 3. Note

Record important thoughts and insights as notes, so your own knowledge accumulates.

STEP 4. Archive

Gather those insights into a personal knowledge archive you can actually put to use.

STEP 5. Re-Create

LiveWiki will become the starting point where organized knowledge turns into new ideas.

  • No. Only videos with captions can be summarized. Summaries are built from a video's captions, so if a video has no captions at all — not even auto-generated ones — it can't be summarized. Private and members-only videos, as well as live streams, aren't supported either.

  • Yes, they can. Upload the PDF and click Summarize to see the paper or report in a summarized, organized form.

  • If the text in the PDF cannot be selected — that is, the pages are images — summary quality drops. PDF summaries also have a monthly per-user limit, and summarizing may not run once you exceed it. You can check your monthly usage in your workspace.

  • LiveWiki supports content in any language, and accuracy is highest for English and Korean. We are actively improving accuracy for other languages as well.

  • Yes, you can. Your past summaries are available in the workspace on the LiveWiki website, including anything you summarized with the extension.

  • LiveWiki isn't a one-and-done summary tool. It's built so you can come back to what you've organized and connect it to everything else. It delivers accurate, well-presented summaries that make any content easy to take in — a good fit for anyone building a body of knowledge.
