Glean (the lecture tool at glean.co) is now Genio Notes. You record a class, type notes beside the audio, add slides, and play the moment back. Transcription, live captions, quizzes, and provided study notes sit on institutional plans. Pricing is sold to departments (minimum 10 seats) or campus-wide. There is no honest public student checkout on the pricing page we checked 21 September 2026.
If your campus does not licence it, this is not a $10 app you can just buy. Ask disability services or the library. Do not confuse it with Glean.com, the workplace AI search product.

Excellent when the campus pays. Invisible when it does not. Otter is the self-serve alternative.
