Direct answer
Acloom accepts supported lecture video files and processes their audio into a timestamped transcript. The same session can then produce a summary, detailed notes, flashcards, quizzes, written practice, and Tutor context without requiring a second upload.

The problem
Why this workflow exists
A recorded lecture preserves the class, but reviewing it from beginning to end repeats the full time cost. A searchable transcript and structured notes let students move to the relevant explanation while keeping the original recording available for verification.
Best fit
- Downloaded university lecture captures
- Recorded class presentations
- Video lectures that need searchable timestamps
- Students who need notes before exam review
