Open source

Why not just summarize it?

Summary

You get a paragraph.

Fast context, but the demonstration, delivery, and nuance disappear.

Transcript + chapters

You still have to hunt.

The source is searchable, but deciding what matters is still your job.

CutNotes

You get the teacher and the takeaway.

Original moments play end to end, with the sauce and next steps beside them.
