Introducing "I Lazy To Read". πŸš€I built this app to auto-summarize any online article into 5 key sentences. Get bit-sized insights without reading the full article. I made this tool to solve my own problem.πŸ™€ I love reading about tech news, startups and product management. But with tons of information and limited time,⏳ I figured I needed a solution that can help me to extract the "important part". This app utilized Machine Learning APIs to scan text and extract key information. I hope you enjoy using it as much as I did when I was building it. ⏳

@whizzzoe Nice work! I'm curious, how long did you work on this?

Nice work @whizzzoe! This tool is simple and clever! Do you plan to make a Chrome widget out of it? :)
Zoe Chew
@fajarsiddiq Thank you for your kind words, Fajar! I'm glad to have made something useful :)

@whizzzoe This is awesome! To boost SEO, I see many news sites unnecessarily bloat articles, so this is perfect! A few suggestions - Create a chrome extension, so you can right click on any page and summarize it - Display original number of words vs summarized number of words, maybe even time saved - If its possible, benchmark data would be great. To show how good your algorithm is

wow this is really cool , do you have an API for it? at the moment I am using an api service to summarise articles for an email newsletter app i am making.. if you have an API maybe i could give it a go to see if it gives better results :D -- maybe it can grab the blog author name somehow too?
Zoe Chew
@graeme_fulton Hey Graeme! Thank you so much for your words! Yeah, I did the same I also used APIs to summarize text. You may check out https://english.api.rakuten.net/ I used it to explore APIs and have found some gems. Thanks to @jed_ng the maker behind this API marketplace.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/l... was the article, try it yourself

Pros:

I really liked the idea

Cons:

Tried it on a Washington Post article re how Tech may be ruining San Francisco, but the summary gave none of the essences.

This could be a major time saver if it were a chrome extension

Pros:

Simple, Fast

Cons:

- None so far

Zoe Chew
Thank you Sharath @sharathprabhal for leaving a review! Will keep in mind for the chrome extension too!

Tested it on a summary of results in experimental particle physics. Not only gave the most important data result, but also summarized the point of the experiment pretty well.... crazy tool :) Great job Zoe!

Pros:

Very simple design and easy to use. Reasonably fast (few seconds) for what it's doing.

Cons:

None that I know of.

Zoe Chew
Thank you for leaving a review, Sammy @sammyshabib! I'm glad it works for you!

Barend
This is cool! Small bug: it seems like you forgot an array join(). I get something like "['LONDON β€” Theresa May announced Friday...', '...', '...', 'Last month...']"
Zoe Chew
@grooveplex Thank you so much, Barend! πŸ™ I'm so grateful that you share with me the bugs. Yeah I'll def keep that in mind to remove/filter the special characters πŸ˜…

Well done Zoe! I tried it out on some crypto articles published recently. It summarises them very well. I'd like to see it bring the title of the article in... maybe extract the H1 or try for the metadata. I'm guessing the next logical step is to build a SaaS where subscribers can choose topics and have their news feed automatically generated and summarised for them each morning!
Zoe Chew
@kodemunki Thank you Jurgen! I'm glad it works for you! Yeah I should consider adding the H1 before the URL link generated on the result page. SaaS is a great idea and getting brief news each morning is so awesome!😊

I loved the way it summarises the web page, it is to the point. Adding some additional fonts will be great :)

Pros:

- Super Fast - It parses the page from URL in few seconds - Summary is to the point

Cons:

- Nothing at all

Zoe Chew
Thanks @a1iusman for leaving a review here! I really appreciate your sharing of thoughts!
