Everything Summ-it does
Summ-it is an Android and iOS app that turns articles, newsletters, YouTube videos, PDFs and pasted text into audio — the full text or an AI summary, your choice per item — and plays them back as one auto-advancing queue. You save from your browser, your phone's share sheet or by forwarding an email; you listen on your phone, including CarPlay and Android Auto.
Platforms
Save on any of them; listen on the phone apps.
Android app
Save and listen. Google Play. Supports Android Auto.
iPhone and iPad app
Save and listen. App Store. Supports Apple CarPlay.
Chrome, Firefox and Safari extensions
Save the page you are reading, or every open tab at once. The extensions save — playback is on the phone apps.
What you can save
Anything you would otherwise leave in an open tab.
Save articles, blog posts and web pages
From the browser extension on your computer, or your phone’s share sheet. Public Reddit, X and Medium posts usually work too.
Save YouTube videos
Share a video and listen to it as audio — the whole thing, or a summary of it.
Save newsletters by forwarding email
Forward to summary@summ-it.pro for a summary or full@summ-it.pro for the whole thing, from your registered address.
Save PDFs, text and Markdown files
Share a file from your phone, upload it from the extension, or send it by email.
Save pasted text
Paste anything you want read aloud and it joins the queue like any other item.
Bulk-save every open browser tab
One click in the extension, with checkboxes to pick which tabs make the cut.
Priority save to the front of the queue
For the thing you want next rather than eventually.
How it is processed
You choose the depth per item, not once for the whole account.
AI summaries — brief, standard or detailed
Pick the length that suits the item. A summary and a full read each count as one item.
Full-text narration
The complete article read aloud, with page chrome, ads and subscribe prompts stripped out first so it reads cleanly.
Summaries and narration in the source language
Saves in another language are summarised and narrated in that language by default. Pro can translate them into a language you choose instead.
How you listen
One queue that keeps playing without you touching the phone.
Auto-advancing audio queue
Each item rolls into the next, hands-free — the reason it behaves like a playlist rather than a list of files.
Offline download
Audio downloads to the phone, so a tunnel or a flight does not stop playback.
Lock-screen and background playback
Skip, scrub and pause from the lock screen with the app closed.
Apple CarPlay
Your queue on the car screen, playable without unlocking the phone.
Android Auto
The same queue on Android Auto head units.
Organizing a backlog
For when you save faster than you listen.
Automatic topic tagging and labels
The library groups itself into lists. Filter by label, source or length and play just that set, or label things your own way.
Ask Summit — answers drawn from your own saved library
Ask a question and get a short answer built only from what you saved, with a note showing how many of your articles it drew on.
Catch Up — one short audio digest from a backlog
Folds a pile of older saves into a single catch-up and archives the originals, which stay recoverable.
What Summ-it doesn't do
- No web player — saving works anywhere, listening is on the Android and iOS apps.
- No RSS or podcast feed subscriptions.
- No highlighting or annotation.
- No OCR, so an image-only scanned document cannot be read.
- No Kindle or e-reader delivery.
Start listening
If your problem is a growing pile of articles, newsletters and PDFs you never get back to — and you'd get through them on a commute or a walk if only you could listen — that's what this is built for.
