There is more content than ever, but it is almost always SEO-optimized & AI-assisted. Usually one interesting idea and few arguments, get expanded into pages of noise, always in a different shape.

I like skimming most blog content in the same consistent structure: - key idea - claims - arguments - counterpoints - action items...

Then, if it looks worthwhile, I then read the full post.

The same structure doesn't work for every content type. Research, product, engineering, marketing... each require a different reading shape.

I have been doing this manually for hundreds of posts, with ChatGPT copy & paste, customGPTS, etc. Eventually turned it into Chrome plugin and since it has become part of my daily reading workflow.

Skimlane lets you create different reading recipes and use Chrome's on-device model (or BYOK) as a local reading harness.

I built it for myself, love using it, and decided to share it. https://skimlane.com/
