Frequently Asked Questions

Why does Coconote block uploads after one lecture?

Coconote uses a 1-note teaser funnel before requiring Coconote Pass. Vertech lets you test our starter tutors free and gives you a full 14-day $0 trial across all 38 tutors and Notes Studio.

Does Vertech generate audio podcasts from my class notes?

Yes. Inside our 7-Mode Study Studio, the Audio Recap tab turns any lecture note into an engaging spoken review you can listen to while walking to class.
