Frequently Asked Questions
The core experience stays the same: login starts the free plan, Pro expands limits, and the product is strongest when it stays grounded in source material.
Can teachers use 5tldr for free?
Yes. The free plan starts after login and includes daily limits. Pro unlocks higher limits, library storage, and stronger workflow support.
Can I summarize lesson videos?
Yes. Use the YouTube flow for lesson videos that have captions, or use Learning Loop for link-based study workflows.
Does it create full lesson plans?
Not directly. 5tldr is strongest at turning long source material into prep notes, discussion prompts, and summaries you can adapt into your own lesson plan.
Can I export the results?
Yes. You can copy Markdown, save summaries to the library, and reuse them in your own teaching workflow.
