This tool reads the article you paste and writes a summary of 3 to 5 sentences, followed by 4 to 6 key points. It uses only what the article says, and keeps names, figures and quotes exactly as written.
What you get
Summary in 3 to 5 sentences
The summary covers the article's main claim, its key facts and its conclusion in a short paragraph you can read in under a minute.
Key points as bullets
You get 4 to 6 bullet points, each one a single claim or finding taken from the article, so you can scan the main ideas quickly.
Names, figures and quotes kept exact
Names, numbers, dates and quotes appear exactly as the article wrote them, so you can check them against the original without guessing what changed.

Who uses it
Reading a long article before a meeting
Paste the article and get the main points in a minute, so you know the argument before you read the full piece or join the discussion.
Checking what an article actually claims
Compare the summary's key points with the article's own wording, using the exact names, figures and quotes it keeps.
Keeping short notes on articles you read
Save a short summary of each article you read so you can find the main point again later without rereading the whole page.
Questions
Does the summary add anything the article does not say?
No. The summary uses only what the article says. Results can still contain mistakes, so check the summary against the original article when the details matter.
Are names, numbers and quotes changed?
They are kept exactly as written in the article. Dates, currency amounts and quoted words are carried over without rewording.
What language is the summary written in?
The summary uses the same language as the article you paste. If the article is in French, the summary and key points are in French.
How much of an article can I paste?
The free preview works on about 6,000 characters of text. A free account handles longer articles, so you get the summary of the whole piece.
