What we do

Calm study. Real recall.

Synlecto turns lecture material into calm, structured active study. We do not do assignments for students. We help them understand, retrieve, and retain what they are learning.

Try it live

Try a sample guide generated from lecture video content

This is a real-style sample guide. Your own lecture videos can generate the same structure: concepts, flashcards, missions, transcript pins, and audio support.

Sample guide outputs

Explore one section at a time. Start with Live demo for a full guide preview, then move through overview, concepts, flashcards, and missions.

Try the full flow: watch, jump by transcript, and pin key moments.

Students are not one profile

Support that meets learners where they are

International learners, undergraduates, postgraduates, and attention-diverse students each get tools tuned to their real study friction.

English as an additional language

International + multilingual students

Fast delivery, dense vocabulary, and hard-to-catch lecture moments.

  • Guided reading level for simpler language and scaffolding
  • Read-aloud voice and slower speed controls
  • Language variant support (UK/US) in Study Companion
  • Transcript search + timestamp replay + clarity pins
  • Works well alongside browser translation tools when needed

Building foundations and study habits

Undergraduate students

Large content volume with unclear priorities each week.

  • Next-best-action prompts to remove daily decision fatigue
  • Due-today spacing queue for regular memory practice
  • Goal-based 5-rep sprints for quick momentum wins
  • Flashcards + missions + quiz + match for active recall variety

Depth, synthesis, and independent learning

Postgraduate students

Complex content with limited time and high standards.

  • Deep reading level when detail matters
  • Companion responses anchored to lecture evidence
  • Glossary, key-point extraction, and concept maps
  • Assignment scaffold and calendar export for structured planning

Neurodivergent and attention-diverse learners

Students with focus/access needs

Sustained attention, cognitive load, and text fatigue.

  • Needs-based accessibility presets and line focus
  • Bionic text, font, spacing, and low-glare/high-contrast options
  • Keyboard-first study actions and quick pin shortcuts (K/E/C)
  • Podcast-style playback and read-aloud pacing for flexible intake

Bionic reading

Structured emphasis can reduce scanning strain and support focus during heavy reading.

Line focus mode

Peripheral lines dim to reduce visual overload.

Current study line stays in clear focus.
