One of the best is Gist AI, a free Chrome extension that uses ChatGPT technology to summarize web pages, YouTube videos and PDFs. It can summarize instantly, provide a "read more" link to the original source material, and let you skip ahead to parts of YouTube videos. It's good for students and professionals who need to get a handle on a lot of information.
Another strong contender is Summary Box. This online text summarizer uses artificial intelligence technology to summarize web articles. It personalizes itself with options like generative AI, document summarization and tools to help you read faster and write better. It can also be used for personalized learning by uploading interactive documents, so it's good for students, researchers and content creators.
If you want a more structured summary, Briefy can present information in a variety of formats like short paragraphs, mindmaps and tables. It works in multiple languages and on Chrome and Safari browsers, so you can read on your phone and ask follow-up questions. That makes it a good choice if you want to get more out of web pages and be more productive.
Last is RecapioGPT, a general-purpose AI summarization tool that's available as a Chrome extension or web app. It can handle a variety of content, including PDFs and YouTube videos, and has advanced natural language processing and customization options. RecapioGPT is good for students, researchers and professionals who need to quickly get a handle on long documents.
