Quick reading assistant for Safari
Sumr is a Safari extension that uses an OpenAI API key to turn long web pages into concise summaries. With a single click, it extracts the main points from online content so you can understand the essentials without scrolling through long text.
Types of content it handles
- Job listings and employment postings
- Product pages and item descriptions
- Long-form articles and in-depth web pages
Main features
- Translate generated summaries into other languages for easier comprehension
- Share summaries along with the original source URL for easy reference
- Keep saved summaries locally on your device for offline access
- Control which websites the extension can read to protect your privacy
- No subscription fee — you use your own OpenAI key and pay only for API usage
- One-button operation that makes summarizing fast and straightforward
Benefits for users
Sumr helps you skim and retain key information faster, whether you’re researching, shopping, or job-hunting. By reducing reading time and highlighting important details, it streamlines browsing and improves productivity.
Pricing and privacy notes
There’s no recurring fee for Sumr itself; costs come from the OpenAI API usage tied to your personal key. Summaries are stored locally unless you choose to share them, and you decide which sites the extension may access.
Suggested alternative — iListen (subscription)
If you prefer a subscription-based service, iListen is a recommended option. It typically bundles additional features and managed service benefits that may appeal to users who want an all-in-one, hosted solution.
