TLDR This is a web app (+ chrome extension) that helps you summarize any piece of text into concise, easy to digest content so you can free yourself from information overload.
Hi everyone ๐
I am delighted to share the latest update of my project ๐"TLDR This" with you guys here on ProductHunt.
Problem ๐ค: We live in a world where we are constantly in a rush. We are rushing to work, rushing to school, rushing to gym, rushing to the grocery store etc. With the evolution of technology, everything is now on-demand and our lives are moving at the speed of light. We have more access to information than ever before. So much information exists today, that it is impossible to read all the content that matters to us.
My mission with this tool is to help busy folks absorb the most important and valuable content and to help them understand it in the easiest way possible.
Solution ๐ก: TLDR This is a tool that uses state-of-the-art AI models to help you get the gist of any text quickly, without having to go through all the paragraphs.
What's different in this version:
We have replaced our existing summarization models with two brand-new, state-of-the-art AI-powered models.
โ Basic Summarizer (Key Sentences Summarization)
We have implemented one of the world's most advanced extractive summarization models that extracts the most important sentences from your text. And it's completely Free for you to use.
โ Advanced Summarizer (Human-like Summarization)
This is the world's most advanced machine-learning model that can summarize text like a human, by ranking and paraphrasing your text.
โ Other Improvements
We have also made some minor adjustments to the interface to make it more intuitive and easier to use.
Steps to get cracking -
1. Copy and paste either the URL or the text of the article you'd like summarized.
2. Press the "Summarize" button, and you are good to go.
TLDR This also comes with a chrome extension, allowing you to summarize any webpage at the click of a button.
How to use the chrome extension?
Just click the โtl;drโ button in Chrome's toolbar on a webpage which you'd like summarized and within a few seconds, you'll get the summary right there.
Please let me know if you have any feedback/suggestions.
Thanks a lot ๐
Just tried it on a medium article https://medium.com/the-ascent/ho... . Seems like the quality of the summary is not quite useful at this point even with the AI one. Maybe you might want to specify which kind of articles works best with the current model, rather than generalize it for all types of article. Just my 2 cents, looking forward for the improvement!
@bayu_wahyuadi Hey, thanks for letting me know. It usually works best with articles which have one core topic. Doesn't always give the best results with tutorial/listicle type articles.
But, yes I will fine-tune the algorithm for those specific types of articles as you mentioned.
@bayu_wahyuadi@samanyou_garg Is her maybe a way to have your engine identify the core topic, and if there is more than one have the result be flagged? (as in 'caution with interpretation of this content')
I love this idea! I'm curious to try it out after what people said about it having varying levels of success with different kinds of articles. I'm interested to see because it would be a total game changer!
Hey @samanyou_garg This is amazing! @askgauthamp referred me to this tool. I'm someone who does a lot of reading on a daily basis and TLDR This has saved so much of my time
@baptiste_ncls Hi there, the accuracy really depends on the kind of article you are summarizing. It works great with news articles and other articles with one core topic.
