Hey Hacker News community! I’m Hui, the maker of AI Summarizer – stoked to share this with you today!

I built this tool because, like many of you, I was drowning in endless articles, hour-long YouTube tutorials, and dense PDFs. One day, while scrambling to prep for a project, I thought: “What if AI could cut through the noise and give me the gist in seconds?” That spark led to months of coding, testing, and collaborating with beta users to polish a tool that’s fast, free, and works in 15 languages .

Why you’ll love it:\n Zero cost, zero fuss – completely free, no hidden limits.\n Your AI, your rules – pick ChatGPT, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Qwen or others to match your style.\n Works everywhere – summarize YouTube videos (yes, even with subtitles!), blogs, PDFs, and more.\n Speaks your language – whether you’re reading in Hindi, Korean, French, or 12 others.

Try it now and let me know:\nWhat content do YOU struggle to digest?\nWhich AI model gives you the best summaries?\nAny features you’d love to see next?

Big thanks to early testers who helped shape this – your feedback is gold! Let’s keep the conversation going: Ask me anything about the tech, roadmap, or how to tweak prompts for laser-focused summaries. Let’s make information overload a thing of the past!

Make it a Show HN and add the URL when you submit it.

Does it use the YouTube transcript/subtitles?

EDIT: it seems to use subtitles: https://robwu.nl/crxviewer/?crx=https%3A%2F%2Fchromewebstore...","comments":[]}],"comments_count":1}
