Instantly summarize web pages with Sumr. Get beyond the headline while saving time. Activate only when needed, right on your Safari browser on iOS, MacOS and iPadOS. All powered by your OpenAI API key.
Safari on iOS is almost perfect. The only thing missing - an ability to summarize an article.
So I've created a simple extension which can summarize you an article in just 3 taps
aA → Sumr → Summarize
Since the making of the very first prototype, I was using it every single day, because
1. faster and more reliable than shortcuts
2. right where I need it to be - in my default browser
3. not in my way, but always just 3 taps away from the content I am reading
4. it makes it very easy to share content on social media and messenger
5. better than web clipper - I can store only a short version of the content piece with a URL
The app itself is free. It uses your own OpenAI API key, so you pay as you go. Summarization of one article is usually fraction of a cent (I use gpt 3.5 under the hood - it's sufficient for simple summaries).
I am not planning to stop developing - advanced features are on the way! Things on my roadmap:
- ability to ask a follow up questions
- additional and quickly swappable system prompts
- neat storage for summaries alongside URLs in the app
and more!
Let me know what you think!
Feel free to try it and and I would appreciate if you would leave a review on App Store with your thoughts and ideas.
congrats on the launch, sumr tldr sounds like a practical tool for quick content digestion. what inspired the specific focus on safari users, and are there plans to expand to other browsers in the future?
Interesting idea that could help save time, especially for news articles for example. Do you have any plans to add customization into the tone or writing style of the summarisations to feel more relatable to how you prefer to consume information?
I wonder how SummarizeMe handles the nuance of different writing styles, especially creative or opinion-based pieces. Accurately capturing the main points in these cases can be tricky! Curious to hear your thoughts.
