📑 How to Use Wordtune Summarizing Tool
The Summarizer offers a revolutionary reading experience that helps you summarize long documents and articles, so you can save time and skim the key points.
Using our advanced AI algorithms, Wordtune creates a summary for you — like a study guide — for any article or document you want to read.

You can import an URL from the Internet, upload a PDF file from your computer, or paste text into the box. PDF files can be uploaded by dragging and dropping or clicking the "browse" button.

✨Wordtune's extension can summarize Youtube videos!
Let's get started and show you how:
First thing's first, download the Wordtune extension from the Chrome Web Store (here)
Next, you'll want to watch the video below in order to learn how to summarize videos with Wordtune:
Get Started:
1. Make sure the extensions are installed
2. Hover your mouse over your Youtube video to see the Wordtune icon in the upper right corner.
3. Click on the extension in your browser and select the puzzle piece icon if you don't see the icon.
Once you have it set up, play any Youtube video and the extension will appear instantly.
💡 It's important to note that the first time you use it, you MAY need to click the extension icon at the top right corner of your screen, in order for it to appear. In this situation, you will either click the puzzle piece icon OR the Wordtune icon, if it's already visible ( I did the latter, in the Gif below)
Following which, you would click "Open Summarization Panel" on the Wordtune pop up.
Summary boxes will then appear in the extension, summarizing what was said in the video. Each summary box will have a timestamp. Having a timestamp means that you can click a chosen box and it will bring you to that exact part of the video you are watching.
On the top right corner of the the extension window you'll have the option to "Open in Website. Click that icon and you'll be taken to your AI Workspace (Our Webapp). There you can then copy all of the summarized text from the video to paste nearly anywhere you choose (ex: notes, Microsoft Word, Google Docs, etc.) or download your text as a document.
