Free article summarizer

Paste an article or give us its address and get the short version: five bullet points and a paragraph. Nothing in the summary that was not in the article.

0/40000 characters

Paste the text, or leave this empty and give a URL below.

We fetch the page once, read it, and keep nothing but a counter. Public pages only.

Sets the register of the wording, not the facts.

How it works

Three steps, no account

  1. Paste it, or point at it

    Either the text or a public URL. Text is instant and never leaves the request.

  2. We condense it

    Five bullet points and one paragraph. With a model configured it is rewritten in the tone you picked. On the free page the highest-signal sentences are selected verbatim, and the page names which of the two you got.

  3. Change the tone and run it again

    The tone select re-runs the summary. Copy the bullets or the paragraph with one click.

Frequently asked questions

Can the summary say something the article does not?

In extractive mode, no: every sentence is lifted verbatim from what you gave us. With a model configured it is a rewrite, and the instruction forbids adding facts, but a rewrite is a rewrite: check it against the source before you publish it.

Why does the tone sometimes do nothing?

Extractive mode picks your own sentences rather than writing new ones, so there is no wording for a tone to change, and the result names the mode it ran in. Configure a model key and the tone rewrites the summary.

How long can the article be?

Up to about 40,000 characters pasted. A URL is fetched once, up to 400 KB.

Do you store the article?

No. Pasted text lives for the length of the request. A fetched page is read and discarded; we keep a counter of how many times we have fetched that host, and nothing else.
