The first project, Recall, is a more ambitious effort that uses AI to summarize and archive information on the web, including YouTube videos, blog posts and PDFs, to a personal knowledge base. It works offline, protects your data and can export information in Markdown format. The service is available as a browser extension for Chrome and Firefox.
Another top contender is Gist AI, a free Chrome extension that uses ChatGPT technology to summarize web pages, YouTube videos and local PDFs. It can summarize immediately and has a "read more" option, so it's good for students and professionals who want to quickly get a handle on long documents.
Summarize This is another strong contender, offering AI-based summarization for text, PDFs, websites and YouTube videos. It can summarize all the content on your system through Chrome and iOS, which is useful for researchers, students and creative pros who want to quickly get a handle on information from many sources.
