Getting started

Quick start

From zero to your first recall nudge in five minutes.

1. Sign in

Go to app.recl.app, or get the app for iPhone, iPad or Android, and sign in with Google or Apple. Those are the only sign-in methods — no passwords, no magic links.

2. Save your first video

  • Click “Add video” in the dashboard and paste a YouTube URL.
  • Recl fetches the transcript, generates short/concise/deep-read summaries, extracts topics, and builds a quiz — usually within a minute.
  • Open the video page to read the summary at the depth you want.

3. Enable recall nudges

Enable push notifications in the mobile app: Recl reminds you when saves are due (day 1 → 3 → 7 → 14 → 30 → 60), and the app's Today screen shows them with a one-tap “Mark reviewed” button. On the web, every save's page has the same button.

4. Explore

  • Library — everything you've saved, filterable and searchable.
  • Search — find saves by title or channel; search your saved videos by meaning in the Chrome extension, or ask a question and get an answer from your saves, with sources.
  • Graph — topics and entities connecting your saves.
  • Nuggets — terms, quotes, and article insights saved as durable cards.
