What is Summarize?

The Summarize feature takes long blocks of text and turns them into short, easy-to-read summaries. Instead of reading an entire article or page, you can get the key points in just a few sentences.


Who is This For?

This feature is helpful for:

  • Students who need to quickly understand long articles or textbook passages
  • Researchers who want to scan content faster
  • Anyone who finds long text overwhelming or difficult to process
  • People with ADHD or reading difficulties who benefit from shorter text
  • Anyone who wants to save time while browsing

Step 1: Open Helperbird

Click the Helperbird icon in your browser toolbar. It looks like a small owl and is usually in the top-right corner of your browser.

This will open the Helperbird menu.


Step 2: Select Text on a Webpage

Go to any webpage and use your mouse to highlight the text you want to summarize. Click and drag to select a paragraph, section, or the full article.


Step 3: Summarize the Text

With your text selected, use the Highlight Menu or the Helperbird menu to choose Summarize. Helperbird will process the selected text and generate a shorter version.


Step 4: Read the Summary

A panel will appear showing your summarized text. The summary captures the key points from the original content in a shorter, more digestible format.

You can copy the summary to your clipboard or close the panel when you are done.

I got this tool as an extension to try out first of all. I was amazed at what it can do in terms of accessibility. I have shown my friends and brother who suffer from dyslexia and they have all downloaded the extension. Great step forward from a company looking to help people!!
