How readiness works

How it works

How to summarize a document with AI

Real screens from the Kuliko web app, generated from our own sample lecture notes on gravity assists.

  1. Add a document

    Upload a file, paste a link or start from a topic. Every source becomes a document you can study from.

  2. Generate a summary

    Kuliko writes the summary: questions to think about first, then an overview and the key points.

  3. Go further from the same document

    Open the document to read the original, review its flashcards or take a quiz when you want to check what you remember.

What you get

The essentials first, the details when you need them

  • Questions before you read

    A few broad questions open each summary, so you read with a purpose.

  • Overview and key points

    An overview and the key points of the document, in one place.

  • Lectures and videos too

    Summarize a lecture recording or a YouTube video once Kuliko has transcribed it.

Readiness

Understand it first, then prove it

Mind maps, summaries and notes help you understand, but they do not change your readiness score directly. Generate flashcards and quizzes from the same document to build that evidence.

Frequently asked questions

What are the questions before the summary?

Each summary opens with a few broad questions to think about before you read, so you read with a purpose and look for the answers.

What is the difference between a summary and notes?

A summary gives you the essentials to review a topic quickly. Notes keep more of the detail and pair it with questions you can use to test yourself. You can generate both from the same document.

Can I summarize a lecture recording or a YouTube video?

Yes. Upload an MP3, M4A, WAV, WebM or MP4 recording, or paste a single YouTube video link, and Kuliko transcribes it into a document you can summarize. Audio and YouTube imports use a monthly allowance.

Is the AI summary generator free?

Yes. Summaries are part of the free plan, with 5 document uploads a month, files up to 5 MB and 5 flashcard reviews a day. Pro adds unlimited document uploads, files up to 20 MB and higher limits.
