| TL;DR paste an article URL in https://letmesummarizethatforyou.com/ and get a brief summary in a shareable link. Hey HN,
Machine generated summaries have become pretty good, and I still often find myself staring at a long article I'm interested in but don't have enough time/energy at the moment to read it. Copy pasting to Gemini/ChatGPT and asking it to summarize works, but I sometimes find it a little tedious. I had a 6 hour flight and I used it to put together this simple web app, all it does is fetch the URL, extract the text (if it's an HTML/PDF), ask an LLM to summarize it nicely, and produce a shareable link with the summary. I actually found myself using this quite a bit to get summaries for HN posts, for example here's the summary for the "Reverse engineering Ticketmaster's rotating barcodes" [1] article that was posted recently: https://letmesummarizethatforyou.com/url/?url=https%3A%2F%2F...
