Dla mnie rewelacja , w końcu wszystko w jednym miejscu .Niestety nie do końca działa kontekst materiałów i wyszukiwanie .Kiedy dodałem około 7 filmów a awatarach pokazuje mi tylko 3 wiec chyba baza wektorowa nie taguje ich odpowiednio. Mam nadzieje ze zostanie to poprawione.

Excellent extension offering highly effective concise and detailed summary options. Its value could be further elevated by adding features such as customizable summaries, quiz generation for specific grades/difficulty levels with user-defined prompts, and the ability to create step-by-step flowcharts/mind maps, tables/diagrams/illustrations for clearer understanding and visual learning, and key takeaways in the summary. Medical students can make high quality notes if there are features to include pictures from pdf to the summary ,and pictures in the quizzes/flashcards for reviewing. Adding multiple contents (multiple pdfs, or multiple pdfs and videos simultaneously) is a need while studying multiple resources of the same topic at a time to make high yield all in one comprehensive note or research. With these enhancements, it has the potential to become an indispensable tool for learning and productivity.

The privacy policy is rather insane. Of course, many are these days, but I definitely recommend reading it and running it (as well as their list of subprocessors) through your favorite LLM for insights into implications you might not think about. The biggest problem that I see is that they have subprocessors in other jurisdictions, meaning your data is subject to multiple legal systems with varying privacy protections. And here’s the kicker — at $80/year, you might think you’re the customer, but in reality your data could be worth just as much, if not more, to them over time. With multiple analytics, enrichment, and CRM vendors in the mix, even a conservative estimate of the potential market value of your behavioral profile, enriched identity, and usage patterns puts it on par with or exceeding the subscription fee over a few years. That means their incentive isn’t just to serve you well — it’s to collect, retain, and leverage as much about you as possible. If you’re using this on a personal home computer, you could be opening yourself up to far more data exposure than you bargained for. The extension does have a switch to turn it off, but don’t overestimate that as privacy protection. In most cases, such a toggle only stops active features; the extension still lives in your browser with its permissions intact, old cookies and identifiers remain, and any data already shared with third-party vendors continues to be trackable through their own channels. Real protection means disabling or removing it entirely when not in use, or blocking its network calls through other tools.

I'm a SWE full time, using recall to learn cybersecurity as a hobby. The web browser tool helps me capture information/articles quickly, and then I can prompt the built-in AI for "Takeaways" I may have missed from each article (99% of the time its spot on). The spaced repetition has been nice, with the AI generated quiz questions hitting on topics that I haven't seen in a while. I don't normally subscribe to AI tools, but recall has been nothing short of amazing. Recommended it to my girlfriend who is in engineering, and she has been using it as well to accelerate her learning. Dearest thanks to the recall team, hoping to see this tool go far.

Since installing this extension a few weeks ago, my web experience has greatly improved. Having access to the summaries and linking content from my pages to existing data in my knowledge base has been really helpful. UPDATE: 2026-03-05 I use Recall constantly, mostly for saving and summarizing YouTube videos (but it can do so much more), and it's become one of the top tools in my stack. You can chat with the content you save, which sounds like a gimmick until you use it. It also connects your notes together automatically, whether you typed them yourself or pulled them from somewhere else, and that's something most tools just don't do. The new text editor was the missing piece for me. It's similar to Notion, and honestly, without it I was close to fully committing but not quite there. Now I can capture ideas fast and actually go back to them without friction. The updated quiz feature is well thought out and customizable to meet my needs. I've always had this problem where I collect a ton of information and then can't remember any of it or put it into context. Having a quiz built right into the same place where I store everything actually helps with that. I already had a lifetime deal on a similar tool. Paid a good amount for it. Still switched to a yearly Recall subscription because it's just that much better. The team is really responsive and they don't rush things out. You can tell they think features through before shipping them. I can't say enough good things about the tool or the people behind it. Definitely top three in my tool stack.

Great utilization of AI in trying to make a framework of easily accessible knowledge that could potentially span even generations, but there are some things that raise concerns and preventing me from committing to and adopting this particular brand of the service despite my enthusiasm for the concept: 1. From the fair use policy: "Recall incurs costs based on usage. If an individual user's consumption significantly exceeds reasonable levels, we reserve the right to pause, review, or adjust their subscription." If you say unlimited and it is limited.. how am I supposed to trust you? Unlimited sounds nice, but unlimited does not mean limited. It's worded pleasantly but I don't want a guillotine hanging over my neck waiting for me to get too interested in a topic of research that I'm deemed a profit-risk and must be dealt with. 2. Seemingly no desktop client (that I could see) with any way to continue utilizing the style of service/past work building up the knowledge base if this company ever goes under (which isn't impossible for the timeframes expected for someone that wants to actually use this service to it's fullest extent). A risk of all time and effort invested into this going up in smoke is too threatening for me to want to commit. 3. "Accounts are intended for individual use only and cannot be shared across multiple people or resold." Restrictions for account access being shared specifically remove all of my potential use-cases for sharing accumulated information with family/children or friends, which would be a major selling point for me personally. I would want something along the lines of adding ways to share/browse/compare/merge other people's saved data. I would use this for saving baking recipes but as for serious long term data accumulation it feels too risky, the lack of a desktop client or ways to keep this system functional in case of you guys vanishing is concerning. I would also probably want a lifetime plan in that case or better yet a one-time purchase of a software that's effectively a framework allowing me to plug in whatever AI I wanted and reach the same result (which sounds perfectly reasonable), which is honestly probably a superior product in general due to the massively increased trust with such a system. Is the business model more about selling off small portions of ai data plans and profiting off of the difference in usage, or are you actually trying to create a revolutionary framework that improves the information gathering/storage/categorization power of people as a whole? I would be more than willing to purchase the product if it's the latter.
