AI-generated article summaries in your inbox
By unverified author Claim this AI
Generated by ChatGPT

SkimIt.ai is an AI-powered summarization tool that enables users to quickly get a summary of any article. Simply email the article link to [email protected], and within 10 minutes the user will receive an AI-generated summary of the article along with drafts of shareable tweets and a LinkedIn post.

The AI-generated summary is powered by OpenAI's GPT technology, and is meant to provide users with key takeaways from the article without requiring them to read the full article.

All generated content is for entertainment purposes only, so users should not rely on its accuracy. SkimIt.ai was created by Karthik Sridharan and Alex Furmansky as a fun little hackathon project to practice AI text processing, email handling, and web scraping.

    I’ve been using Collate to go through technical PDFs, and it’s been surprisingly handy. Summarizing docs and being able to ask questions directly saves me time, especially when I’m skimming through research or API references. No sign-ups, works offline, and everything stays on my device — which I appreciate.
