Chat notes are easy to make and hard to keep

Good answers get buried

The notes you asked for last week sit somewhere in a long chat history. Finding them again means scrolling and guessing.

Two assistants, two histories

You use ChatGPT for one thing and Claude for another. Neither one knows what you saved in the other.

Notes lose their source

A summary without the video or page it came from is hard to check, quote or revise when your exam or report comes around.

What your assistant can do with Gistr
