Turn any recorded lecture into study-ready notes

Every slide, captured
Automatic detection of each new slide or screen — no manually scrubbing through the recording to grab screenshots yourself.

Clean .mp4
The original recording, converted to a standard, widely-playable .mp4.
Pricing
Token-based — 1 token ≈ 1 minute of video processed, rounded up. No unlimited plan, on purpose: it keeps processing fast and reliable for everyone instead of a few heavy users slowing it down for the rest. Because nothing is stored and nothing trains an AI model, there's no hidden data business subsidizing the price — you're paying for compute, plainly. First pass at pricing — may change as we learn more from real usage.
30 tokens · $6.00 pay-as-you-go
Pay as you go
$0.20 / token
Buy tokens as you need them. 1 token processes about 1 minute of video.
Subscription
$15 / month
100 tokens included every month — about 25% off buying the same tokens individually.

Learn about Light Patterns
StudyBeacon is built by Light Patterns, a studio that builds software without the dark patterns — the deliberate sludge other companies use to keep you confused, paying, or unable to leave. That same standard shaped every choice here: pricing is a flat, plainly-stated token cost, not a subscription engineered to be forgotten. Your video, screenshots, and transcript are deleted the moment your download is ready — no quiet archive, no data pipeline feeding someone else's AI model. Transcription runs on infrastructure we control, not a third-party API. Simple, secure, and built to earn your trust rather than extract from it.
