## Best for

- Lecture and class notes
- Mixed handwritten and typed inputs
- Reviewing a shorter summary

## Not designed for

- Automatic meeting recording
- Unattended transcription
- Replacing source verification

## Workflow

1. Capture the original note with Write or Scan.
2. Review the source content.
3. Organize it with related notes.
4. Generate and verify the summary.

## AI after capture, not instead of capture

Pocket Orbit keeps the original note visible in the workflow. AI helps with grouping and summaries after you provide the source, which makes it easier to check what the output was based on.

## Built around the iPad study context

Use Apple Pencil when spatial notes are fastest, the keyboard when wording matters, and the camera when the material already exists on paper.

## Frequently asked questions

### Does Pocket Orbit record lectures?

Pocket Orbit is positioned around notes you actively write or scan. It is not presented as an unattended meeting or lecture transcription service.

### Should I trust every AI summary?

No. Check important facts, names, formulas, and definitions against the source note.
