Text Summarizer

Instantly summarize any article, essay, or document. Extract the most important sentences using smart sentence ranking.

How to Use the Text Summarizer

Paste an article, report or any long text into the box, set the target summary length and maximum sentences, choose a focus (general, key points, or action items), then click Summarize. A concise summary appears that you can copy or regenerate with different settings.

Use it to skim long research papers, prepare meeting briefs, or extract the essence of product reviews before a purchase decision. For best results, paste the full original text rather than a partial excerpt - context matters.

Try the Try Sample button to see how the tool handles different focuses. If the summary feels too compressed, increase the max sentences or switch the focus to general for a broader overview.

For meeting notes, paste the raw transcript and choose action items as the focus to extract decisions and owners. For research, summarize each section separately to keep the detail, then summarize the combined version for the executive view.
