While this specific app may be paid, I built https://HackYourNews.com (free) specifically to "summarize HN for me" and it grew to include many other websites. Uses Gemini Flash under the hood and summarizes both the story AND the HN comments!

Very cool. Some ideas;

- would love to collapse all the news outlets at top and keep closed - would love a way to customize the wrap ups below that you have - would love the comments summary below

Great ideas! We're totally considering these.

For the comments summary - honestly, we think comments are pure gold. Sometimes they're way better than the actual news (which says something about journalism these days ). I personally read every single comment because you never know when someone drops absolute wisdom in there. But, not everyone has my comment-reading obsession, so we'll definitely add a summary option for the normal people!

That's really cool! I just checked out HackYourNews.com and it's a great implementation of the summarization concept. I love that you're covering multiple sites beyond just HN, and including the comments summary is smart - often the real insights are in the discussion threads.

It's interesting that we both saw a similar need around staying informed without spending hours browsing. Your approach with Gemini Flash for the web-based solution makes a lot of sense, especially being able to offer it for free.

Our focus is a bit different - we're exploring what becomes possible when you move that intelligence directly onto the device itself. So while you're solving the summarization problem really well in the cloud, we're asking "what if this kind of AI agent lived natively on your iPhone?" The privacy, speed, and offline capabilities open up some interesting possibilities.

Thanks for sharing your project - it's always great to see different approaches to similar problems. The fact that multiple people are building in this space suggests there's real demand for better ways to consume information.

And, We will remove the paid feature in the later versions. Cause this agent is running on your device, there is no need to have any pay.
