SMMRY is a summarization service for turning text and other content into shorter, digestible summaries. Its web tools support webpage summaries, transcript summaries, and file uploads. The REST API accepts raw text, web URLs, or PDF content, supports more than 20 languages with automatic language detection, and lets callers set summary sentence counts or exclude questions, exclamations, and quotations.

The free plan includes 10 summaries. Essential is 7.00 USD per month, billed $14; Advanced is 13.00 USD per month, billed $25. API pay as you go is 1.00 USD per once, averaging about $1 USD per credit, with credits that do not expire. The service is available on the web and via API, with a browser extension also listed.
