How It Works (Behind the Scenes)

This tool uses smart Extractive Summarization directly in your browser. It doesn't rely entirely on heavy AI APIs, ensuring maximum privacy and instant speed.

• Smart Sentence Picking: Important words get a higher score. Sentences containing these high-score words are prioritized for the summary.
• Structure Maintenance: The algorithm gives higher priority to paragraphs at the beginning (introduction) and the end (conclusion) of the document, mimicking a human-written summary structure.
