Hello Product Hunt! 👋 Our team is very excited to be featured on PH! We just love this community and the products launched here on this platform :) There is so much valuable information out there on Youtube but we often find it difficult to switch across tabs to take notes. We wanted to reimagine the way we take notes on Youtube, making it as frictionless as possible. Presenting to you, Clarity, a chrome extension that allows you to take lightning fast Youtube notes. Take distraction-free notes without leaving your keyboard. No more juggling between media controls, mouse and what not. As seamless as you can imagine. Why Clarity? 1. Take notes at the speed of your thoughts. Inbuilt shortcut commands that allow you to take markdown notes without leaving your keyboard. 2. Never lose your notes again. Your notes are automatically saved and synced online. Retrieve it whenever you want. 3. Youtube notes stored in the context. Your notes make more sense when you can understand the context in which it is situated. Take Youtube notes from where you left earlier. We hope that Clarity becomes your second brain someday. Thanks again for your support and our team is ready for any feedback and comment! PS: Readwise and Notion integrations coming soon :)

I always found it difficult to take notes on another tab while watching youtube videos - it was annoying to switch between tabs while watching a video. Clarity has finally solved my problem! I've been taking notes on clarity now for the past ten days and it has improved my work flow drastically :D

@deepika_gk Thank you for this comment Deepika! Nothing like finding a right solution for a user's problem! Hope this helps improve your workflow!

@shreyas_prakash1 Yes! It would be great if you could also include a feature that helps capture parts of the video - like a transcript of sorts.

@shreyas_prakash1 @deepika_gk Hey Deepika, we already have it in our pipeline. You will be super happy when we integrate the same very soon :)

Excellent. What other note-taking tools does it talk to? If not, on the roadmap?
Abu Abdullah

@abhash_kumar2 Hey Abhash, right now the notes are stored in clarity dashboard but we have plans to integrate with other knowledge bases like readwise, notion, roam, soon. :)

Been using it for sometime and it is a worthwhile extension to keep if you use youtube for studying. 🚀

@rohit_lakhotia Hey Rohit, thanks for the shoutout! I hope this fits into your various other use cases for rapid fast youtube note taking :)

@rohit_lakhotia Thank you Rohit. Yeah we want to enhance the YT learning experience and happy that it helps you to do the same.

This product is crazy good. 🔥 As a self-taught developer, I do learn actively via tutorials, interviews, and conference videos on Youtube and this makes it super easy to grab insights as I am listening and revisit them later on. I have been using this for the past couple of weeks and can't recommend this enough to any person who is an active learner on the internet The product delivers great value despite being in its early stage and the team is full of awesome people. 👏👏👏👏

@utkarsh_bhimte Thanks a lot Utkarsh for being such an important person in building this product. And happy totally happy that its helps you in your active learning :)

@rajivraj Thank you Rajiv. Yeah all the integration are in the pipeline. Will be adding those very soon :)
Shreyas Prakash
Maker
@rajivraj Thank you for all the suggestions Rajiv! We would be integrating Clarity with Readwise, Notion and Keep. As our early adopter, you get the first taste of our cake :)
reddy2Go
this sounds incredible and i'm guessing you have an obsidian plug-in lined up as well. thought if it integrates with readwise, you needn't bother. curious if there's any way to integrate this into the mobile youtube experience?
Abu Abdullah
Maker
@reddy2go Hey the readwise integration is something which we are working on currently and would be available sooner. This will make your life super easier. W.r.t mobile experience we are figuring out some of the feasible solutions. Do share your suggestions & feedbacks with us.
Siddhant Sumon
The much needed structure to the YT learning experience, which promises the world (quite literally) but doesn't solve the value 'capturing' problem as well. This feels like the missing piece.
Abu Abdullah

@siddhantsumon Thanks a lot Siddhant for your kind words. Happy that you like the product :)
Arda Helvacılar
Is this useful for Meet or Zoom? Do you have plans to do so? Great luck people!
Abu Abdullah

@helvacilar Currently this product integrates only with YT. But we want to integrate with other platforms as well as in near future. Thank u for shoutout Arda. :)
Kağan Korkmaz
Wow, very nice for self-learners, I will give a try. But I wonder how can I access the notes I took without going to Youtube.
Abu Abdullah
Maker
@kagan_korkmaz1 Thank you Kağan. The notes can be accessed in the clarity website. You will get to know about this once u install the extension. Don't want to spoil the onboarding user experience :P Do let us know ur feedbacks after u use it.

@abu_abdullah @alxmth03 Hey Alex! This wouldn't have been possible without your critical feedback during the beta phase. Thanks for helping us out
Aditya
Wow! This is so amazing! If YouTube is the new classroom, Clarity should be the new notebook. Can the video outline through time stamps be added as headings automatically? For example, somethings like this:
Abu Abdullah
Maker
@adityavsc Thank you for your kind words :) Currently we do not have a support for that. But yeah we are working on something similar as well :)
Aditya
@abu_abdullah awesome! :)

@shreyas_prakash1 @saibhaskardevatha Thanks a lot Sai for being an inspiration in bringing this live. World should have more people like you who helps other builders launch. Kudos to you. :)
Aniket Mandle
Super helpful for taking feedback while watching tutorials. I was always annoyed to have a second app open or have to use another screen! Simple and effective
Shreyas Prakash
Maker
@aniket_mandle Hey Aniket! Yes! Context switching across multiple tabs is indeed a big hassle. Thanks for the shoutout, and do enjoy the note-taking experience :)
Abu Abdullah
Maker
@aniket_mandle Yeah Aniket, why should i open a separate app to note taking which would cause lots of distraction. Happy that you liked the product. :)
