Text Summarizer

A text summarizer picks the most representative sentences from a passage and returns them in their original order. This tool uses a word-frequency method that runs in your browser, so it extracts rather than rewrites.

It runs entirely in your browser. Nothing you paste or upload is sent to a server or stored.

How to read the result and act on it

Choose how many sentences to keep and read the output for flow. Because sentences are taken from different parts of the text, they may need a connecting word or reordering. Use the summary to find the main points of a long draft, to write a first version of a meta description, or to create a takeaway box, then edit it so it reads naturally and reflects the page accurately. Check that no key number or caveat was left out.

Common mistakes to avoid

Do not publish the raw output as final copy, since extracted sentences can lose context or lean on pronouns that point to missing text. Avoid summarising text that depends on tables or images, which the tool cannot read. And do not treat a summary as a replacement for the full page: search engines evaluate the whole content.

What is an extractive summary?

One made of sentences taken directly from the original text, rather than newly written sentences.

How is it different from AI summarisation?

AI tools can rewrite and condense in new words. This tool only selects existing sentences, so it never adds new claims.

How can summaries help SEO?

Short summaries can serve as meta descriptions, intros and key takeaways. Write the final version yourself so it matches the page and search intent.
