Free News Reader

Hit a paywall? Get a free summary of any news article — powered by AI.

Do you hate running into paywalls at news sites? Never get stuck there again. You can almost always find a free version of the story! Free News Reader detects when you've hit a paywalled article and gives you a one-click way to get the full context — for free. No subscriptions required. No paywall bypassing. Just smart AI that finds you the story. HOW IT WORKS • Visit any major news site • A small notification bar appears at the top of paywalled articles • Click "Free News Reader" and get an instant summary with: – A clear headline – Two key takeaway bullet points – A full 200-300 word context article – Links to free sources covering the same story (AP, Reuters, NPR, BBC, and more) – An AI-generated editorial image WHAT THIS EXTENSION DOES NOT DO • It does NOT bypass, crack, or circumvent any paywall • It does NOT access or scrape any paywalled content • It only reads publicly visible metadata (headline, description) from the page you're already on
