Page Summarizer (Using AI)

A powerful browser extension that utilizes AI to efficiently summarize website content using OpenAI or Transformers.js technology.

About Page Summarizer (Using AI)

This browser extension enables quick and accurate website content summaries through artificial intelligence. It offers two summarization methods: a cloud-based solution using the OpenAI API for fast, language-agnostic summaries, and an offline method via Transformers.js, which runs directly in your browser but is slower and resource-heavy. Currently, Transformers.js supports only English. The OpenAI option provides faster results and supports multiple languages, making it ideal for diverse content.

How to Use

Open the extension options to select your preferred AI summarization method. For OpenAI, enter your API key. Navigate to any webpage, click the toolbar or sidebar button to generate a summary, which appears instantly in the sidebar.
