GlenSum turns any web page, article or PDF into a clean summary in seconds. Bring your own AI key for unlimited use — or start free with built-in models. Pay once, use forever.

Free plan available. No account required to start.

What it does

A focused toolkit for people who read a lot on the web.

Instant page summaries

One click on any article, documentation page or blog post — get the key points without the noise.

Refine any text

Select text on any page and refine, condense or restructure it — great for papers, reports and long reads.

PDF support

Parse and summarise PDF documents directly, including local files — no upload to third-party services.

Batch processing

Queue multiple pages or documents and let GlenSum work through them while you do something else.

Bilingual side-by-side

Read the summary in two languages at once — ideal for non-native articles and research.

Export where you think

Send results to Markdown for Obsidian, or as mind maps. Your notes stay in your tools, not in ours.

Bring your own key — unlimited use

GlenSum does not run AI on our servers. You connect your own AI provider (OpenAI-compatible API key) or use the free built-in model options, so there are no usage quotas from us and no per-summary charges. Ever.

Questions

Short answers. If yours is not here, just email us.

Is this a subscription?

No. Pro is a one-time purchase. You pay once and keep access to the full version, including future updates. There is nothing to cancel and nothing renews.

What does "bring your own key" mean?

GlenSum does not include a paid AI service. You either enter an API key from an AI provider you already use, or use the free built-in model options. This is why we can offer unlimited use without a subscription — the AI usage is between you and your provider.

Do you see the pages I summarise?

No. Page content is sent directly from your browser to the AI provider you configured. Our server never receives the pages you read or the text you refine — it only handles licence activation. See our Privacy Policy.

How do I activate Pro after buying?

Your activation code is emailed to you right after purchase. Open the extension settings, paste the code, and Pro unlocks. There is no account to create.

What if I want a refund?

Email us within 14 days of your purchase and we will refund it in full, no questions asked. See our Terms of Service.
