Gist — AI Summarizer

Summarize any web page or selection with AI, then translate the summary into your language. Uses your own API key.

Gist turns any web page into a quick, readable summary — right in your browser. No copy-pasting into a chatbot, no separate tab. One click. Then, if you want, translate that summary into your own language. ★ WHAT IT DOES • Summarize the page you're reading in Short (3 sentences), Medium (5 bullets), or Detailed form. • Or summarize just the text you select. • Translate the summary into English, Korean, Japanese, Chinese, Spanish, French, or German — then switch back to the original anytime. • Right-click any page or selection and choose "Summarize with Gist". • Results stream in live, word by word. ★ BRING YOUR OWN KEY Gist uses YOUR own OpenAI, Anthropic, or Google Gemini API key. That means: • No subscription and no markup — you pay the AI provider directly, at cost. • Choose your model (GPT‑5.x or Claude, or Gemini) and trade off speed vs. quality. • Enter a custom model ID anytime, so you're never stuck on an old model. ★ PRIVATE BY DESIGN • Your API key is stored only in your browser and is never sent to us. • We run no server. Your text goes straight from your browser to the AI provider you chose. • Gist only reads a page's text the moment you click — it does not run in the background on every site. ★ GREAT FOR • Long articles, research papers, documentation, and reports • Reading content in a foreign language • Getting the gist before you commit to a full read ★ HOW TO START 1. Install Gist. 2. Open Settings and paste your OpenAI, Anthropic, or Google Gemini API key. 3. Open any article and click "Summarize this page." Gist is free. You only ever pay your AI provider for the tokens you use.
