Prompt Library

Paste your raw lecture notes or reading material and this tool sorts them into a three-column page, term or question in the first column, the explanation in the second, and a concrete example or memory hook in the third, built for vocabulary, formulas, and definition-heavy material rather than a flowing lecture, or explains when three columns beat two if you'd rather decide the format yourself first.

Name a note-taking method and a subject and this tool builds a blank, reusable template shaped for that exact pairing, section headers and layout in place but no content filled in, ready to print or copy before a lecture or reading session starts, or compares two methods side by side to help you pick a template if you're not sure which one fits your class.

Paste your raw lecture notes or reading material and this tool sorts them into the classic Outline Method, main topics as Roman numerals, supporting points indented under each one, details nested a level deeper than that, or explains how to run the method live during a lecture if you'd rather take the notes yourself.

Paste your raw lecture notes or reading material and this tool describes Walter Pauk's Mapping Method for it, a main topic branching down into sub-topics and those sub-topics branching further into details, drawn as an indented tree rather than a linear page, built for material with a clear hierarchy and real cause-and-effect or category relationships, or explains how it differs from a freeform concept map if you want that distinction first.

Paste your raw lecture notes or reading material and this tool describes a hand-drawable sketchnote layout for it, containers, connecting lines, banner headings, and simple icon suggestions for the key ideas, following the visual note-taking approach from Mike Rohde's The Sketchnote Handbook, since it can describe the page but can't draw it, or explains the core building blocks of sketchnoting if you'd rather learn the approach before drawing your own.

Paste your messy raw notes and this tool cleans them up without switching their method, fixing scattered ordering, merging duplicate points, tightening rambling phrasing, and removing filler, while keeping whatever format you already wrote them in, or flags what's actually wrong with a page of notes first if you want a diagnosis before a rewrite.

Paste your raw lecture notes or reading material and this tool sorts them into a simple two-column split page, main points on the left and supporting examples or clarifying detail on the right, with no cue column and no summary band, a lighter format than Cornell notes for material that just needs the main content kept visually apart from its supporting detail, or explains when the lighter format is enough if you'd rather decide that first.

Paste your raw lecture notes or reading material and this tool rewrites every point as the question it answers, one question-and-answer pair per fact instead of a section-level question the way SQ3R turns headings into questions, so the whole page becomes a built-in self-test rather than a page you review and then separately quiz yourself on, or explains how this differs from turning headings into questions if you want that distinction first.

Paste the raw notes you took during a lecture and this tool rebuilds them into a proper topic outline, inferring the main topics and supporting points a live lecture rarely announces cleanly, since a professor talks in a straight line while the actual structure underneath has to be reconstructed after the fact, or checks a lecture outline you already built for gaps you might have missed while writing live.

Paste your raw lecture notes or reading material and this tool condenses it into a bulleted list at a density you choose, never prose, from a lightly trimmed version close to your original wording down to a bare must-know list, built for turning a dense page into something you can scan in under a minute, or explains how to pick the right density if you're not sure how much to cut.

Paste your raw lecture notes or reading material and this tool sorts them into the Boxing Method, separate bordered boxes for each sub-topic laid out on the page instead of a linear column, built for visual thinkers and for material that splits cleanly into self-contained chunks, or explains when boxes beat a straight list of notes if you'd rather decide that yourself first.

Paste your raw lecture notes or reading material and this tool sorts them into the Sentence Method, one numbered sentence per new fact or idea, written down in the order the material actually covered it, built for fast-moving lectures where there's no time to decide on a hierarchy first, or explains why the speed comes at a real review cost if you'd rather understand the tradeoff before choosing it.

Paste your raw lecture notes or reading material and this tool sorts them into Walter Pauk's Charting Method, a grid with one column per category and one row per item, built for material that's naturally comparative, historical periods, species, theories, drug classes, or explains when a chart beats a linear page of notes if you'd rather decide that yourself first.
