Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about ai lecture note taker.

Can I record a lecture live in the app?

Yes — record directly in Thetawave during class or upload a recording afterward. Both methods produce identical structured notes with headings, key concepts, and summaries. Live recording works on any device with a microphone.

How accurate is the AI lecture transcription?

Thetawave achieves over 95% accuracy across accents and speaking speeds. It handles technical terminology in STEM, law, and medicine — outperforming generic transcription tools on academic content.

Does it preserve math formulas from lectures?

Yes — Thetawave detects spoken math and renders it as clean LaTeX. Integrals, matrices, chemical equations, and multi-step derivations are all preserved with proper formatting.

How long does lecture processing take?

A 60-minute lecture typically takes 2–3 minutes to transcribe and structure. Processing time scales linearly with recording length. You receive structured notes, not just a raw transcript, within minutes of uploading.

What audio and video formats are supported?

Thetawave supports MP3, WAV, M4A, MP4, MOV, and WebM. You can also paste a YouTube link for online lectures. Any recording device or format works — phone, laptop, or external recorder.

Is it useful for reviewing several recent lectures together before an exam?

Yes. Each lecture is captured and structured as its own note, so when you pull up a few recent ones in the same workspace it's much faster than rewinding through every recording from scratch. Useful before an exam or when you want to revisit several class sessions in one sitting.
