tldrx.me

tldrx.me takes one of the simplest possible approaches to article summarization: URL prefixing. You take the link of a long article, news story, or webpage and put tldrx.me/ in front of it, then the service reads the page and returns a concise summary. There is nothing to copy, paste, or highlight, which makes it fast for links you encounter while browsing or in a message.

The tool gives you control over the output. You can pick a summary style — Instant for a quick overview, Structured for organized sections, or Bullet for a key-points list — and choose a detail level between Compact, Standard, and Deep. That means the same article can be turned into a two-line gist or a longer breakdown depending on how much you want to absorb.

Beyond the web page, tldrx.me is available as a Chrome extension, an iOS shortcut, and a mobile app, so the interaction can fit your browsing habits. It is run as an independent free project by a solo developer, Trieu Pham, and the site invites visitors to support children's charities such as Red Nose and Room to Read rather than paying for a subscription. As a free AI tool, summary quality depends on the underlying models, and key details should be checked against the original page.
