Frequently asked questions

Is it free?

Yes. It is free with no signup, no watermark and no usage limit.

Is my data uploaded?

No. The AI model runs inside your browser, so your text never leaves your device.

Why is the first run slow?

The first time, your browser downloads the AI model from a public model host (Hugging Face via jsDelivr). After that it is cached and starts much faster.

Does it work on phones?

Yes, in a modern mobile browser, though large inputs run slower than on a laptop.

Choosing a summary length

Worked example

A student pastes a 1,200-word textbook section on the Goods and Services Tax. The short summary says GST replaced many indirect taxes in 2017 and is charged at each stage of supply with input tax credit. The medium summary adds the CGST, SGST and IGST split and the main rate slabs. The student then reads the original only for the parts the summary flagged as important.

Tips for better summaries

For notes from a meeting recording, first turn the audio into text with the AI audio transcriber, then summarise it here. To check how long your final text is, use the word counter.

More questions

Does it work on Hindi or other Indian languages?

It is designed for English. Results in other languages are unreliable.

Is there a word limit?

There is no fixed limit, but very long text runs slowly in the browser. Split books or long reports into sections.
