Open a Panopto lecture recording in your VLE. If it is embedded, pop out the Panopto player, then Synlecto adds a guided way to recap, practise, revisit the source, and connect repeated ideas across saved guides.

From Panopto lecture video to next study action
Open the Panopto player once. Synlecto gives you something to read, something to answer, and something to come back to later.
Step 1
Open the Panopto lecture
Start in your VLE, then open or pop out the embedded Panopto player when needed.
Step 2
Get a guide, flashcards, and short missions
One source becomes a guide to read and recall tools to answer.
Step 3
Come back when the lecture is due again
Due topics return later so the next study action is obvious.
How Synlecto works
From lecture source to checked study actions.
Synlecto starts with the recording, transcript, captions, or source text, then adds structure, coverage checks, and guardrails before students see guides, recall, missions, later review, and accessibility tools.
After the first session
Synlecto keeps the next step visible.
Most study tools stop at the summary. Synlecto brings back due cards, short missions, and weak topics so the lecture returns when it is worth revisiting.
A guide only shows "Checked guide" after current automated checks.
Synlecto publishes guides through an academic assurance model that combines source provenance, publication states, quality gates, benchmark fixtures, and internal review logic. We would rather downgrade a guide honestly than overclaim its completeness.
Starts from the source
Synlecto begins with the lecture transcript or source text, not a blank prompt.
Keeps what matters
Important academic terms, comparisons, processes, and case examples are kept where they matter.
Checks coverage and connections
We look for missing sections, later-topic gaps, and source support before connected routes are presented.
Labels guides honestly
When the source is weaker or incomplete, the guide says so clearly instead of overstating confidence.
Source excerpts remain truthful. Learner-facing labels may be cleaned conservatively where confidence is high, but source truth is not rewritten.
University names and logos are trademarks of their respective institutions. They are shown here to explain compatibility context, not approval or partnership.
Students make progress when the study loop is clear.
Synlecto turns one lecture into a practical rhythm: read, test, and return later, so familiar review becomes active practice.

You still do the thinkingActive learning
Synlecto keeps revision in your hands. It gives the lecture a structure you can use: guide first, recall next, then a route back in later.
What students noticed after using it
Less rewatching, less second-guessing, and a clearer next step.
Student feedback
It stopped me from mindlessly rewatching. The missions are short, but they make me think, which is the point.

Student feedback
The next best action removed the daily debate. I opened Synlecto and just did the thing.

I felt more in control. Small sessions, most days. The streak helped, but the structure helped more.

FAQ
Direct answers before you try it.
What do Synlecto’s guide quality labels mean?
Labels show how much source coverage Synlecto found: Checked guide, Partial guide, Limited-source guide, or Source text only. They are not lecturer verification, so students should still use course materials.
How do students start using Synlecto?
Create an account, add Study Companion, then open an existing Panopto lecture recording, lecture video, or source material to build a guided study route.
Does Synlecto work with Panopto?
Yes. Synlecto is built around Panopto lecture recordings in university VLEs. Open or pop out the Panopto player so the transcript or captions can load, then create a source-grounded study route.
Does it work in my VLE?
Yes for common lecture videos in Canvas, Moodle, Blackboard, and Brightspace. Panopto is the main supported lecture recording workflow, with YouTube and file/text fallbacks where source material is available.
Do I need the browser extension?
If you want to create directly from a Panopto lecture video in your VLE, yes. If not, you can still create from uploaded files or pasted text inside Synlecto.
Is it just AI summaries?
No. The guide is the starting point. Synlecto also gives flashcards, short missions, later review prompts, and MyMap connections across saved guides so students practise and revisit the material.
How is MyMap different from a lecture library?
A library stores recordings and guides. MyMap looks for repeated source-backed concepts across a student’s active tracks, then turns those connections into a route with cited moments and private weak-point support.
What about privacy?
Synlecto keeps data minimal and gives deletion controls for guides, local data, and accounts.
Do university names on the site mean endorsement?
No. They show lecture-system compatibility context only. University names and logos are there to explain where Synlecto can run, not to suggest institutional approval.
Start with your next lecture.
Quick start gives you the cleanest route in: open a Panopto lecture recording with Study Companion, view the sample guide, or use the fallback create flow if capture is unavailable.
