Hi HN community - Today I wanted to share with you my latest open source project:

When scrolling through HN every day I usually open multiple tabs. Some articles I read immediately but most of them I want to consume at a later point, preferably on my e-reader - in a format tailored to me so it provides more context sparks more inspiration.

AI Summary Helper (available as Chrome Extension and Universal / browser-agnostic bookmarklet) allows you to summarize articles with a custom prompt — so it can be as tailored to your language, profession or point of view as you define it. You can also ask questions about the article.

What makes it special? The summary gets injected in the content area itself. This way you can easily forward the article, including the generated summary to your Kindle device e.g. using Reabbles Send-to-Kindle tool.

It's a very simple approach (yes, yet another OpenAI GPT 4o mini-wrapper (possibly with more integrations to come), but one of which I now use on a daily basis - thus I felt like sharing it :).

Cheers, Phil
