Get instant summaries of articles, PDFs, and videos in your browser

This extension turns a long article, PDF, or video into a short summary right in your browser. Nothing you read gets sent to any server.

It's a free browser extension that turns a long text or video into a list of key points. It runs locally — on your own computer, not the cloud.

When it helps

Use it when you need the gist of a long article, PDF, or video before a meeting. For a careful read of a complex document, read the original or connect your own larger model instead.

Pros

  • Works without internet and without an API key — a password for paid AI.
  • No account, subscription, or API key needed at all.
  • Runs on your GPU or a plain CPU — the default model is under 1GB.
  • YouTube and Bilibili videos get a clickable timeline of key moments.

Cons

  • The default model is small — not built for complex documents.
  • Bigger models need separate setup via Ollama or llama.cpp.

How to set it up — step by step

  1. 1Open your AI agent (Claude Code, Codex) in your project folder.
  2. 2Send the agent the text from the block below.
  3. 3Let it install the extension via the Chrome Web Store or Firefox Add-ons links.
  4. 4Open a long article or PDF you want to understand quickly.
  5. 5Run the summary in the extension and pick a response format.
  6. 6Check the result — the agent will show you the finished summary.

Text for your agent

Copy this and send it to your agent — Claude Code, Codex, any of them:

Install the Apogee browser extension following the README here: https://github.com/darshi1337/apogee — it links to the Chrome Web Store and Firefox Add-ons page. Once installed, open a long article or PDF and run a summary, then show me the result.

Lightweight: no graphics card needed, the default model is under a gigabyte and runs even on a plain CPU through WebAssembly.
