Creating speaker notes for virtual conferences

1 . A method, comprising:

identifying, via a private user interface of a conferencing software, objects in a document;

receiving requests to associate notes with at least some of the objects of the document, wherein the document comprises a slide and at least one of the notes is associated with an object included in the slide, and wherein the object included in the slide is selected from a set comprising a bullet point and a visual object;

in response to receiving the requests, associating, in a data store, the notes with the at least some of the objects of the document including the note associated with the object included in the slide;

displaying, in the private user interface, an object list user interface populated based on at least some of the objects identified in the document;

for each identified object that has one or more notes associated therewith, presenting, in the object list user interface, a respective indicator indicating that the each identified object has one or more associated notes, including an indicator for the object included in the slide;

sharing the document in a conference via the conferencing software;

displaying the private user interface at a device of a presenter in the conference but not at devices of other conference participants; and

displaying, in the private user interface, at least one of the notes based on a portion of the document currently displayed in the conference.

2 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

receiving a block of text to associate with an object of the document;

transmitting a rewrite request to a natural language processor to rewrite the block of text;

receiving a rewritten text in response to the rewrite request; and

associating the rewritten text as a note with the object.

3 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

receiving a block of text in a first language to associate with an object of the document;

transmitting a translation request to a natural language processor, wherein the translation request includes a second language;

receiving a translated text in response to the translation request; and

associating the translated text as a note with the object.

4 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

receiving a selection of a note from a library of notes; and

associating the note with an object of the document.

5 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

storing a note of the notes in a library of notes.

6 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

associating a note with a visual object of the document.

7 . The method of claim 1 , wherein a note is associated with a title of the document.

8 . The method of claim 1 , wherein a note is associated with a list item object of the document.

9 . The method of claim 1 , wherein a note is associated with the document as a whole.

10 . A system, comprising:

one or more memories; and

one or more processors, the one or more processors configured to execute instructions stored in the one or more memories to:

identify, via a private user interface of a conferencing software, objects in a document;

receive requests to associate notes with at least some of the objects of the document, wherein the document comprises a slide and at least one of the notes is associated with an object included in the slide, and wherein the object included in the slide is selected from a set comprising a bullet point and a visual object;

in response to receiving the requests, associate, in a data store, the notes with the at least some of the objects of the document including the note associated with the object included in the slide;

display, in the private user interface, an object list user interface populated with based on at least some of the objects identified in the document;

for each identified object that has one or more notes associated therewith, present, in the object list user interface, a respective indicator indicating that the each identified object has one or more associated notes, including an indicator for the object included in the slide;

share the document in a conference via the conferencing software;

display the private user interface at a device of a presenter in the conference but not at devices of other conference participants; and

display in the private user interface, at least one of the notes based on a portion of the document currently displayed in the conference.

11 . The system of claim 10 , wherein the private user interface comprises a rich text editor.

12 . The system of claim 10 , wherein the one or more processors is further configured to execute instructions stored in the one or more memories to:

visually identify the at least some of the objects of the document as objects having associated notes.

13 . The system of claim 10 , wherein the one or more processors is further configured to execute instructions stored in the one or more memories to:

transmit a request for a summary of at least some of the notes;

receive a summary note; and

associate the summary note with the document.

14 . The system of claim 10 , wherein the private user interface is displayed with a transparent background.

15 . A non-transitory computer readable medium storing instructions operable to cause one or more processors to perform operations comprising:

identifying, via a private user interface of a conferencing software, objects in a document;

receiving requests to associate notes with at least some of the objects of the document, wherein the document comprises a slide and at least one of the notes is associated with an object included in the slide, and wherein the object included in the slide is selected from a set comprising a bullet point and a visual object;

in response to receiving the requests, associating, in a data store, the notes with the at least some of the objects of the document including the note associated with the object included in the slide;

displaying, in the private user interface, an object list user interface populated based on at least some of the objects identified in the document;

for each identified object that has one or more notes associated therewith, presenting, in the object list user interface, a respective indicator indicating that the each identified object has one or more associated notes, including an indicator for the object included in the slide;

sharing the document in a conference via the conferencing software;

displaying the private user interface at a device of a presenter in the conference but not at devices of other conference participants; and

displaying, in the private user interface, at least one of the notes based on a portion of the document currently displayed in the conference.

16 . The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 15 , wherein the operations further comprise:

including, in the private user interface, a rewrite command, wherein the rewrite command is associated with instructions that, when invoked, cause a rewrite request of a note to be transmitted to a natural language processor.

17 . The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 15 , wherein the operations further comprise:

including, in the private user interface, a translate command, wherein the translate command is associated with instructions that, when invoked, cause a translation request of a note to be transmitted to a natural language processor.

18 . The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 15 , wherein the operations further comprise:

including, in the private user interface, a summarization command, wherein the summarization command is associated with instructions that, when invoked, cause a summarization request of the notes to be transmitted to a natural language processor.

19 . The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 15 , wherein the operations further comprise:

including instructions for rendering a rich text editor in the private user interface.

20 . The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 15 , wherein the private user interface is displayed in an overlay mode or in a docked mode.
