Snip customizations

How to configure the default snipping behavior, change the AI generated summary format, duration of the snip, etc.

Updated over 2 weeks ago

You can customize the default behavior of your snips in "You" > "Settings" > "Snip settings".

There are 3 options:

  • Generate title: if you toggle this off, the generated snip will not have a bold title as the first line.

  • Summary: you can choose your desired AI generated summary format

    • Short: a short bullet list of key takeaways

    • Long: a longer bullet list of key takeaways

    • Custom: you can specify your own prompt that will be used when creating a snip. See below for some inspirations.

  • Snip duration: you can decide the duration of the snip

    • Auto: let the AI automatically decide how much context to include in the snip. This is the preferred option as it will try to find the best start/end point.

    • Fixed: approximately X seconds from the time you create the snip

Snip custom prompt inspirations

  • Flashcard Q&A prompt

Write it in a flashcard design (question, then answer). Write the question in bold, starting with “Q:”, then two newlines, then the answer in normal text (not bold), starting with “A:”.
  • Elevator pitch prompt

Create a summary of the text that emphasizes in 3 to 4 bullet points the main ideas as well as the elevator pitch of the text. Pay special attention to any surprising or especially insightful remarks and prioritize those in the summary.
  • Quote and explanation prompt

Start with a “Quote:”, then write a quote relevant to my summary chosen from the podcast episode in bold. Vary the length of each sentence (short, medium and long sentences). Include examples from the podcast episode whenever possible. Use a conversational tone.
