Introducing Illinotes: A New Way to Share Notes at UIUC

Today marks an exciting milestone for the UIUC community. We're officially launching Illinotes - a platform built by students, for students.

The Problem We Solved

If you've ever tried to find notes for a missed lecture, you know the struggle:

  • Scrolling through endless GroupMe messages
  • Asking in class Facebook groups with no response
  • Searching Google Drive folders with inconsistent naming

We built Illinotes to solve this problem once and for all.

How It Works

  1. Sign up with your email
  2. Upload notes organized by course (CS124, MATH241, etc.)
  3. Search and filter to find exactly what you need
  4. Engage with likes, comments, and @mentions

AI-Powered Summaries

Our built-in AI summarizer helps you digest lengthy lecture notes in seconds. Just paste your notes and get a clear, organized summary with key concepts highlighted.

What's Next

This is just the beginning. We're working on:

  • Mobile app (coming Spring 2026)
  • Professor verification badges
  • Study group formation tools
  • Integration with Canvas
