Hello Product Hunters! 🚀
We're thrilled (a bit nervous) for our first-ever PH launch and can't wait to hear what you think!
Problem: 🤔
Gist AI emerged from my personal struggle with existing summarization tools. As an avid reader of online content, I faced three major issues:
1️⃣ The summaries were high-level and left me wondering if they covered everything important.
2️⃣ If something caught my eye, I had to revisit the entire article or video to learn more.
3️⃣ I was juggling multiple extensions for websites, YouTube, and PDFs. Plus, no extension offered free PDF summarization. 😕
Solution: ✅
Gist AI started out as a basic tool just for me and a few friends. But after launch the response was overwhelming and we realized that many other people were facing similar problems. Numerous customer feedbacks and a bunch of improvements later, we are finally ready to bring Gist AI to the Product Hunt community. 🎉
Key Features:
🛠 One extension to summarize everything
No need for multiple summarizers — Gist AI summarizes websites, YouTube videos, online PDFs and even PDFs uploaded from your computer.
🔄 Unlimited, Unrestricted free summaries
No restrictions on length of content or number of summaries.
🔍 Deep Dive into What Interests You
If you find something interesting, use our unique 'Read More' feature to deep dive into the summary source. For YouTube videos, jump right to that moment in the video.
🧠 Enhanced Comprehension
Gist AI improves focus and understanding by breaking down lengthy content into digestible pieces.
👌 Free, Simple and easy to use
Just install the Chrome extension and you are set—no payment, no API keys, no fuss.
🌍 Overcome language barrier
Translate summaries into 30+ languages, making Gist AI accessible worldwide.
We hope Gist AI helps you save some valuable time.

Congratulations on your launch. This extension will make it easier to find and highlight key information
Volodymyr from True Nation!
Congratulations @sayoni_dutta_roy ! It seems evident that Gist AI can save users a significant amount of time while enhancing productivity, but I have a question: How does Gist AI handle complex and technical content? Thanks!
Impressive tool, Sayoni and Kshitiz. Gist AI addresses a genuine pain point for content consumers.
Question: How does Gist AI handle context retention in longer content? Considering user customization, perhaps integrating a user-adjusted summary length option might cater to individual preferences. This can ensure a tailored experience.
Keep innovating!
Congratulations on your Product Hunt launch! It's exciting to see a tool that addresses the common issues faced by readers of online content when it comes to summarization. You mentioned that Gist AI can summarize websites, YouTube videos, and online PDFs. Could you elaborate on how the summarization process works for each of these content types? Are there any limitations users should be aware of?
I've just tried your extension, and it's awesome!
Having different apps for all these tasks made it such a problem to switch from one to another.
My question to you is:
1/ Is there a way to get a summary of a YouTube video if it doesn't have captions?
2/ Does it support other languages besides English?
@sayoni_dutta_roy & @kshitizkr : Congrats on the launch team, the product looks amazing.
The only downside is that I might become addicted to Gist AI and forget how to read full articles. Oh well, worth it! Congrats on the launch!
This is awesome!! Addation to PDF, Does your team plan to expand the summary to other formats?
Impressive! This will save me considerable time that I would have spent watching tutorials.
