TL;DR + bullets, not a wall of text
Every summary leads with a one-paragraph TL;DR, followed by structured bullets you can scan in 30 seconds. No filler, no "as an AI language model".

✦ Chapter I · Why it's different
A summarizer that keeps the source in context.
Page citations on every line
Each bullet links back to its source page. Click to jump straight to the paragraph it came from — handy when you're skimming a 200-page PDF.
Chat with the source later
Summaries are saved documents that remember their source. Open one a week later, and the AI Chat sidebar lets you ask follow-ups grounded in the original.
Works in your browser
The Chrome extension lets you summarize an open PDF, a news article, or a long Gmail thread without leaving the page. The summary lands in your workspace.

Got questions,
we've got answers.
Everything you need to know about the HyperWords summarizer.
An AI tool that turns any PDF (or URL, or DOCX) into a TL;DR plus structured bullets with page citations. The summary is saved as a document in your workspace, and you can chat with it later to ask follow-up questions — the summary remembers the source, so the chat is grounded.
After HyperWords summarizes a PDF, the summary becomes a real document with the source attached. Open it later and the AI Chat sidebar lets you ask follow-ups — "what does it say about onboarding?", "summarize chapter 3 in 5 lines", "compare section 2 to section 5". Every answer cites back to the source page.
Yes. The Free plan includes 10 summaries per month, unlimited spell & grammar checks, 25 chats/day, 25 rewrites/day, and 1 custom AI skill. No credit card required. Pro ($3.99/mo) unlocks more summaries, 5 custom skills, and higher daily limits — roughly a third of Wordtune Premium's price.
PDF (any length), DOCX, plain text, and any URL. The Chrome extension lets you trigger a summary directly from the current page or a PDF open in the browser. For local files, drop them into the studio at app.hyperwords.pro.
Three things competitors don't do together: (1) Page citations on every bullet — click a citation to jump to the exact page in the source. (2) The summary is a saved document with the source attached, not a throwaway popup. (3) Chat with the summary later to dig deeper — the source stays in context. Grammarly doesn't have a summarizer; Gist AI generates one-shot summaries with no follow-up chat.
Your PDFs are processed in real time and not used to train models. We don't keep file contents beyond what's needed to generate and store your summary. Summaries belong to your account — delete a summary and the source extraction goes with it. See our Privacy Policy for details.
Yes — the same Chrome extension that powers HyperWords across the web also exposes Summarize. Highlight a long thread in Gmail, an article on the web, or content in any text field, and trigger a summary inline. The summary is saved to your workspace so you can come back to it.
Your next draft starts sounding like you.
Draft in the web app, rewrite from the Chrome extension, summarize long sources, and save the prompts that match how you actually write.
