A lecture extract, before and after

What you hear
Right, so… um, inflation, what is it? It's when the general price level goes up, okay, not one single price, the general level. And so your purchasing power, it drops. We measure it with the CPI, the consumer price index, which the statistics office publishes every month… Now, the causes, there are two big ones, remember this for the exam: demand-pull inflation, when demand outruns what the economy can produce, and cost-push inflation, when production costs rise — energy in 2022, typically… Now, careful: inflation isn’t necessarily a bad thing, okay? The central bank aims for roughly 2% a year, that’s its target. The problem is when it spirals, like in the seventies, or the opposite, when prices fall, deflation… We’ll come back to that next week with interest rates, write it down, it comes up a lot.
What Hekko gives you

Inflation

Everything Hekko picks up

A lecture in the hall, a video class, a file you already recorded or the lecturer’s slides: it all ends up in the same sheet.

  • In the lecture hall

    Start recording from the app or your computer when the lecture begins, and let Hekko listen.

  • Over video

    On a computer, Hekko records your computer's sound: Zoom, Teams or Meet, in Chrome or Edge.

  • A recording you already have

    Import an audio or video file up to 50 MB: a voice memo, a lecture video, last year’s recording.

  • Slides and documents

    PDF, PowerPoint, Word or a photo of the board: Hekko merges them with the audio into one lecture.

  • Notes shaped like the subject

    Tables, formulas, timelines, diagrams: the layout follows what the lecture calls for.

  • Over 100 languages

    The lecture language is detected automatically, and you can translate your notes to revise in yours.

Note-taking methods

Three techniques show up in every study guide. By hand they take time; on a Hekko sheet, they're already there.

  1. 01Key terms in bold

    Make what will be on the exam stand out, so you find it at a glance. Hekko already puts key concepts in bold, and you can highlight anything else in your notes editor.

  2. 02Diagrams

    A hierarchy, a sequence of steps or a timeline sticks better as a picture than as a paragraph. When the lecture calls for it, Hekko draws them in your notes: trees, flows and timelines.

  3. 03Tables

    Two theories, two causes, two periods: a comparison reads better in columns. Whenever the lecture compares several things, Hekko puts it in a table.

With Hekko, you no longer choose between listening and formatting: your sheet arrives with key concepts in bold, diagrams and tables in place, and all that's left is revising.

Three steps, that’s all

  1. 1One button when the lecture starts
  2. 2Your attention on the lecturer, not on your page
  3. 3Your sheet, flashcards and quiz a few minutes later

Why it works in lectures

  • Your focus stays on the lecture

    Your brain cannot listen and write at the same time. By the time you note one sentence, the lecturer is on the next. With no pen to keep up with, you understand during the lecture instead of copying.

  • You catch everything

    An example dropped in passing, a question asked in the hall, a hint about the exam: Hekko listens to the whole lecture, even the minutes you zone out, and keeps what matters in your notes.

  • Didn't get an explanation? Ask Hekko

    Open the lecture chat and ask your question: Hekko starts from your lecture, cites the sections of your notes it uses and fills in when needed.
