About Coconote
Coconote is a leading AI note-taker, consistently ranking in the Top 50 Education apps on Apple's App Store. They help transform lectures and meetings into organized notes, transcripts, and study materials, supporting over 100 languages and multiple content formats including audio, video, and PDF conversion.
Coconote is tailor-made for neuro-diverse students and professionals including those with ADHD, ASD, dyslexia, and auditory processing issues.
Enhancing Student Engagement
While traditional note-taking apps require students to manually scroll and search through content, Coconote is creating interactive study experiences through conversational AI.
Coconote’s voice chat feature, powered by Hume's EVI, helps users transform static notes into dynamic conversations. Students can:
-
Ask natural questions about their lecture content,
-
Receive contextual explanations referencing specific notes, and
-
Engage in quiz-style conversations for active learning—all through natural voice interaction.
EVI powers Coconote's "Voice Chat" feature
For example, a student might ask, "What were the key differences between mitosis and meiosis from today's biology lecture?" and receive an immediate response from EVI that not only references their notes, but also discusses follow-up questions and tangential topics (e.g., cytokinesis).
Technical Integration
EVI's advanced capabilities make it an ideal fit for Coconote. The platform delivers conversational latency for natural dialogue flow, and uses intelligent end-of-turn detection based on vocal cues. Most importantly, EVI provides emotionally aware responses that adapt to students’ attitudes and confidence levels.
From a development perspective, the integration was seamless:
-
Clean API integration with existing Coconote infrastructure
-
Custom system prompts aligned with Coconote's supportive brand voice
-
Chat history capabilities for reviewing past study sessions
The result enables students to have meaningful conversations with their notes while maintaining the technical sophistication needed for educational applications. Users can test the EVI integration in Coconote directly at https://coconote.app/.
