Summarize a PDF and ask it questions

Get the gist of a long report in seconds. Summarize & ask picks out the key sentences at the length you choose and lets you search the document with a question, pointing to the pages that answer it. It runs on your device, with an optional on-device AI model for exact answers.

  • Your files stay on your device

    Summarize & ask runs in your browser, so nothing is uploaded — not the file, not even its name.

  • Free, with no sign-up

    No account, no watermark on your files and no daily limit for normal use.

  • Files up to 100 MB

    Large or scanned files are fine — they simply take a little longer.
