Frequently Asked Questions

Find answers to common questions about using our tool, its features, and how it handles your data privacy.

Our AI summarizer is highly accurate for general content, news articles, blog posts, and non-technical documents. It successfully identifies main topics, key arguments, and important facts. However, for highly technical, legal, or academic content with nuanced arguments, always review the summary carefully. The tool works best on well-structured content with clear topic sentences and logical flow.
Use summaries as a study aid and research tool, NOT as a substitute for reading source material. For academic work: (1) read summaries to quickly assess if a source is relevant; (2) use them to review key points; (3) always read the full original for citations and deep understanding; (4) never submit AI-generated summaries as your own work. Treat it like Cliff Notes—helpful for comprehension, not replacement for actual reading.
For news articles (500-1000 words): 100-150 word summaries. For blog posts (1500-2000 words): 200-300 words. For research papers (5000-10000 words): 500-800 words. For books or long reports: chapter-by-chapter summaries of 200-400 words each. The goal is to reduce content by 70-90% while retaining all critical information.
Currently optimized for English content. Performance on other languages varies depending on language structure and AI model training. For best results with non-English text, consider using a language-specific summarization tool or translating to English first, summarizing, then translating the summary back.
Yes, completely secure. All text summarization happens locally in your browser using client-side AI processing. Your documents, articles, or research papers are never uploaded to servers, stored, or accessible to anyone. Safe for confidential reports, unpublished research, business documents, or sensitive information.
