The summarization model is trained on English news articles; other languages are not supported reliably.

Understand long texts in minutes

A quick summary of news articles, blog posts, reports and research lets you grasp the main ideas while saving time. The Text Summarizer uses DistilBART, trained on news articles, to summarise text in its own words (abstractive summarisation).

Summary length

  • Short: the main idea in a few sentences
  • Medium: a summary with the key points
  • Detailed: a more comprehensive summary

Long texts are summarised in parts and combined.

Privacy and performance

The model is about 270 MB and is downloaded once, only after you confirm. It runs on your CPU, so long texts take a while. Your text is never sent to a server, so you can use it safely for confidential documents.

Language support

The model is trained on English news and doesn't produce reliable summaries in other languages.

How to use AI Text Summarizer

  1. Paste your English text.
  2. Choose the summary length.
  3. Confirm the model download on first use.
  4. Read and copy the summary.

Why use this tool?

Summarise securely on your device without sending text to cloud AI services.

FAQ

Can it summarise non-English text?

No. The model is trained on English news and produces unreliable summaries in other languages.

Is the summary faithful to the text?

Abstractive models can occasionally produce wrong details; verify important facts against the source.

How long a text can I summarise?

Long texts are processed in parts; processing time grows with very long texts.
