Hello Product Hunters! πŸš€ We're thrilled (a bit nervous) for our first-ever PH launch and can't wait to hear what you think! Problem: πŸ€” 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. πŸ˜• Solution: βœ… 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. πŸŽ‰ Key Features: πŸ›  One extension to summarize everything No need for multiple summarizers β€” Gist AI summarizes websites, YouTube videos, online PDFs and even PDFs uploaded from your computer. πŸ”„ Unlimited, Unrestricted free summaries No restrictions on length of content or number of summaries. πŸ” 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. πŸ‘Œ Free, Simple and easy to use Just install the Chrome extension and you are setβ€”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. πŸ™ 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 πŸ“š. 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 β€” be it articles, YouTube videos, or PDFs β€” 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 πŸ™ˆ 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. πŸ™ Wishing you a great day! β˜€οΈ

@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?
Sayoni Dutta Roy
@guillaume_ang1 Great suggestion: Sharing the summary along with the link. We will definitely include it in upcoming versions. Let us know if you think of other improvements. It would be really helpful
Thomas
Just tried. Very impressed and it also supports other languages 🀯 I wish it was a standalone webapp instead of an extension though.
Sayoni Dutta Roy
@thmsrn Thanks for trying Gist AI. We are glad you found it useful. Creating Gist AI as a standalone app is a promising idea for the near future. We initially made it an extension to offer real-time summaries while users browse or watch YouTube. However, a standalone app could offer broader features and reach more users.
@thmsrn Thrilled to hear you're impressed and excited about the multilingual support! 🀯 Your wish for a standalone web app is noted and something we'll consider for the future. Thanks for the valuable feedback!

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.
Sayoni Dutta Roy
@ishwarjha Thanks Ishwar. Glad to hear that you are finding Gist AI useful
@ishwarjha You're awesome, thanks for the support! Let us know how Gist AI improves your comprehension of long articles.
Naoto Shibata
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?
Sayoni Dutta Roy
@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.

Gist AI sounds like a really cool tool! I totally understand the struggle of trying to find good summarization tools. Sometimes the summaries just aren't detailed enough and you have to go back and read the whole thing again.
Sayoni Dutta Roy

congratulations on the launch
Julien Ergan
Congratulations for the launch! Are you planning to the link it with other note/memo tools like Notion, Evernote, etc. Sounds very useful for people trying to Build a Second Brain.
Sayoni Dutta Roy
@julienergan Thanks for the feedback Julien. The need to save summaries is a great idea and seems like a major feature request from today's launch. We definitely plan on adding it in upcoming versions. Stay tuned!
ToyHeart
Hi, thanks for building such a great extension, it's easy to use and good in summary quality. Just find a bug, when I choose to use non-English, it do reply with non-English, but the reply in 'Read More' is still in English.
Sayoni Dutta Roy
@bleedingsaber Thanks for trying it out. We are really glad you liked it. We are aware that the content in the 'Read More' section is in the same language as that of the original article. But we totally agree that if the user changes the language, then that part should also be translated. Great suggestion! We will definitely incorporate it in future versions.
