01 / How it works

Step 1

Paste your article

Paste the full text, or read from a URL first to pull the first part of the page into the box.

Step 2

Generate the block

A fast open model writes a 2 to 3 sentence answer-first summary and 3 to 5 self-contained takeaways, using only facts from your text.

Step 3

Put it at the top of the page

Copy the plain text or the ready HTML snippet and place it right under your H1, before the rest of the article.

02 / FAQ

Questions, answered.

Why put a TL;DR at the top of an article?+

An answer-first block at the top of a page is one of the most liftable structures an AI answer engine can find. It states the point plainly before the reader even scrolls, which is exactly the shape ChatGPT, Perplexity and Gemini tend to quote from. It is not a guarantee of a citation, just the format that gives you the best odds.

Where should the TL;DR go and how should it be marked up?+

Right under the H1, before the rest of the article. The HTML export below wraps it in a section with an h2 reading TL;DR, a p for the summary and a ul for the takeaways, plain markup with no classes or inline styles so it drops straight into most editors.

Does a TL;DR cannibalize the rest of the article?+

Honestly, a little, for skimmers who only wanted the headline. But readers who want the depth and detail keep reading past it, and AI engines and skimmers both get served by the block being there instead of buried three paragraphs down. Most articles gain more readers than they lose.

Does the model add facts that were not in my article?+

It is instructed to use only what is stated in your article and never invent numbers, names or claims. Check the summary and takeaways against your source anyway before you publish; treat this as a fast first draft, not a fact-checked final.

Is there a limit on how long the article can be?+

We read up to about 6,000 characters of your pasted text. If your piece runs longer, summarize it in sections, or paste the part you most want covered.

Is this free, and does it store what I paste?+

Yes, free with an hourly rate limit per visitor so no one visitor can drain shared capacity. What you paste is sent only to generate the summary and is not stored beyond that request.
