SkimIt.ai is a service that allows users to receive summaries of articles by simply emailing the article link to go@SkimIt.ai. The user will then receive a summary of the article within approximately 10 minutes. The process is simple – email the link, wait for the summary to be sent back via email.
Users can share interesting articles with friends by cc’ing them in the email to go@SkimIt.ai. This way, friends will not only receive the original article but also get a helpful summary generated by SkimIt.ai.
The service is powered by OpenAI’s GPT technology, providing users with key takeaways from articles without the need to fully read them. However, it is important to note that the generated content may not always be completely accurate, and users should use the summaries responsibly.
SkimIt.ai is a project created by Karthik Sridharan and Alex Furmansky as a fun hackathon project to practice AI text processing, email handling, and web scraping. Made by Magnetic Ventures LLC, this service aims to make it easier for users to quickly grasp the main points of articles without investing the time to read them fully.
