Document Summarizer
Extract the essential from any long document — reports, papers, contracts, transcripts, books — and present it in a format that's actually useful for your decision.
When to Use
- "Summarize this document / report / paper"
- "What are the key points in this?"
- "I need to read this but only have 5 minutes"
- "Extract only the financial data / recommendations / risks from this"
- "Compare these two documents"
What to Give Me
- The document text (paste it or use the pdf / file reading tools)
- Purpose: why you're reading it — what decision does this inform?
- Audience: who will read the summary (exec, technical team, client, yourself)
- Format: executive brief, bullet points, detailed outline, Q&A
