Too long; didn’t read...
One of the incredibly useful ways in which our language heuristics technology can benefit the average web user is in the real time analysis of content. By going beyond simple natural language processing and using heuristics to actually understand copy, we can make instant decisions that benefit the web experience.
The web's #1 summary tool
An extension for most modern browsers, TLDR Plugin summarizes articles online. Enabling readers to quickly get necessary information from long content in their browser. TLDR summaries are displayed instantly via an on-page overlay optimized for the reading experience. Users can browse to a page with long content, click the “TLDR” button in the browser, and reduced text appears instantly, offering four concise versions of content: short, medium, long, and original. TLDR shortens e-mails, news articles, blog posts, even documents behind a paywall or on a corporate intranet.
