Hello Product Hunters! 🚀 We're thrilled (a bit nervous) for our first-ever PH launch and can't wait to hear what you think! Problem: 🤔 Gist AI emerged from my personal struggle with existing summarization tools. As an avid reader of online content, I faced three major issues: 1️⃣ The summaries were high-level and left me wondering if they covered everything important. 2️⃣ If something caught my eye, I had to revisit the entire article or video to learn more. 3️⃣ I was juggling multiple extensions for websites, YouTube, and PDFs. Plus, no extension offered free PDF summarization. 😕 Solution: ✅ Gist AI started out as a basic tool just for me and a few friends. But after launch the response was overwhelming and we realized that many other people were facing similar problems. Numerous customer feedbacks and a bunch of improvements later, we are finally ready to bring Gist AI to the Product Hunt community. 🎉 Key Features: 🛠 One extension to summarize everything No need for multiple summarizers — Gist AI summarizes websites, YouTube videos, online PDFs and even PDFs uploaded from your computer. 🔄 Unlimited, Unrestricted free summaries No restrictions on length of content or number of summaries. 🔍 Deep Dive into What Interests You If you find something interesting, use our unique 'Read More' feature to deep dive into the summary source. For YouTube videos, jump right to that moment in the video. 🧠 Enhanced Comprehension Gist AI improves focus and understanding by breaking down lengthy content into digestible pieces. 👌 Free, Simple and easy to use Just install the Chrome extension and you are set—no payment, no API keys, no fuss. 🌍 Overcome language barrier Translate summaries into 30+ languages, making Gist AI accessible worldwide. We hope Gist AI helps you save some valuable time. 🙏 Thanks for your support Your upvote and your feedback are very important for us. Please share any features or improvements you'd like to see in upcoming versions. Cheers! Sayoni and Kshitiz, Gist AI Co-founders

Hey Product Hunters! So happy to introduce you to Gist AI 📚. We're excited for you to experience it first-hand and can't wait to hear your thoughts. Gist AI was born out of our own frustrations with the existing solutions for content summarization. We aimed to create a one-stop solution that efficiently summarizes everything — be it articles, YouTube videos, or PDFs — and saves you some valuable time each day. Gist AI is designed to be intuitive, so you can instantly hit the ground running. My personal favorite 🙈 is that now I can summarize long PDFs for free. Let us know what your favorite feature in Gist AI is? Your input is crucial to us. We're keen to learn what you think and how we can fine-tune Gist AI to better meet your needs. 🙏 Wishing you a great day! ☀️

@sayoni_dutta_roy this makes so much sense. I see a great use for it in order to improve the shareability of content. You read an article or watch a video, get the summary and share the link alongside your key takeaways. What do you think?

Congrats on your launch! Reading and watching some content takes me a lot of time, so it will save time. By the way, the token ChatGPT can handle is limited. How can you put all data on the website into ChatGPT?

@naoto_shibata_morph We hope Gist AI helps you save some time. :) Gist AI splits long content into easy-to-understand smaller blocks. So we can handle the token limitation imposed by ChatGPT.

I came to know about this product while searching for chrome plugin that can help summarise the pdf/text file. I instantly jumped out to check it. The product worked flawlessly and helped me achieve what I wanted with some tweaking and adjustments in the prompt. Its a good product to use especially if you want to extract the summary and responses based on your local files. My best wishes are with the maker Sayoni for a fruitful future.

Congratulations on the launch! Would I be able to export the summaries after generating them? I think it would be cool to sync them with Notion or something similar. Best of luck on your mission!

Review Gist AI?

Reviewers see Gist AI as useful for summarizing content and tackling a real information-overload problem, but the feedback here is narrow and mixed. One user calls it impressive and suggests more control over summary length for better customization, especially on longer content. At the same time, others report practical issues: declining responsiveness, a translation feature that stays stuck in English, and serious concern about the Chrome extension requesting broad read-and-write access across websites, which raises trust and security questions.
