That's really a fantastic tool. More than just tweets, I am trying to learn to summarize my writing and be more to the point. I was really surprised at how great the result was. Sure, room for some improvement, but, I've added the plugin.

Might be nice also to have a gmail plugin, as it's often in email where I want to be more concise.

Great work!

Very interesting! I played around with it, and it seems to perform abstractive summarization of fairly good quality with coherent output. I can see myself using this. Can I ask what kind of model are you using, and what dataset was out trained on?

Super cool! Thanks for sharing this! Question though, when adding to Chrome it asks for permission to read and change data on all medium.com sites. Any reason for this?

Thanks for feedback. Ya, there is a feature, we are testing right now, when user visits medium article, it can process it and give the result without even copy-pasting.

Also we considered adding techcrunch or even HN. Maybe could be somewhat useful for some people ))
