# AI notes for chemistry

Canonical URL: https://notedly.ai/for/chemistry

> Paste a chemistry textbook section or drop in a lecture video and get organized notes on the concepts, reaction types, trends and key terms. Use outline notes to follow a topic step by step and Cornell notes for definitions, then check every formula, unit and equation against your textbook and work the practice problems yourself.

## Sound familiar?

- A chapter that introduces a new concept, unit and equation on every page
- Reaction types and periodic trends that blur together the night before the exam
- Fast lectures where you're copying the board instead of following the reasoning

## How students use Notedly in Chemistry

1. **Add the chapter or lecture:** Paste a textbook section, drop in a link to an online reading or a YouTube lecture, or upload the chapter PDF or a photo of the page on Premium.
2. **Pick a note style:** Outline to follow a topic like equilibrium or bonding step by step, Cornell for definitions and reaction types, standard for a quick review.
3. **Check against the textbook:** Go back to the book for structures, diagrams and worked examples, and check every formula, unit and equation against the original.
4. **Practice and test yourself:** Work the assigned problems yourself, then on Premium turn your notes into a practice quiz on the concepts. Follow your course's rules on AI use.

## Readings, videos and live lectures in one place
Chemistry classes mix a dense textbook, posted lecture videos and the lecture itself. Notedly handles all three:
- **Textbook sections** as pasted text on every plan, or as PDFs and page photos on Premium.
- **YouTube lectures** on every plan. Long videos with captions work, and short videos without captions are transcribed by AI.
- **Live lectures** on [Premium Plus](/pricing). See how [live lecture notes](/live-lecture-notes) work.

## Use AI responsibly
Use your notes to understand and organize the material, and do your own problem sets and lab reports. Don't hand in AI-generated text as your own work, and follow your course's AI policy.

## Frequently asked questions

**Can Notedly summarize a chemistry textbook chapter?**

Yes. Paste the chapter text, or upload the PDF on Premium. A full chapter can run past the free plan's 10,000 words a month, so chapter-by-chapter studying fits best on Premium (500,000 words a month for $9.99 a month or $49.99 a year).

**Does it handle equations, structures and diagrams?**

Notedly works from the text of your reading, so formulas and equations come through as text. Study structures, mechanisms and diagrams in the textbook itself, and check every formula and unit in your notes against the original.

**Can it take notes during a live chemistry lecture?**

Yes. Live lecture notes are part of Premium Plus ($24.99 a month or $129.99 a year): start recording in your browser and the notes build as the lecture goes. On any plan you can also paste a recorded lecture's YouTube link.

**Is it free?**

Your first summary needs no account, and a free account includes 10,000 words a month.
