CLUSTER LECTURES-MACOS-NOTES · 14 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2026-09-05
macOS lecture study apps
This cluster consists of macOS apps that record lectures, transcribe audio, and convert materials into study aids such as notes and summaries. The dated history before the index start is too thin to read a shape from, as no entries were recorded. Among the members with activity signals, GotIt leads with 3 stars, followed by whisp with 2 and murmur-notes with 1.
Entry timeline
ENTRY TIMELINE
Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.

Two labels per entry, never collapsed into one: how it was built, and who stands behind it. Counted over the 14 listed below. Unlabelled means nothing has decided yet — not that the answer is small.
