<strong>Reddit Summarizer</strong> is a browser add-on that uses AI to summarize Reddit posts and their top comments, helping you understand long threads without reading dozens of lines or comments.

Click the <strong>AI Summary</strong> button on any text-based Reddit post to generate a concise summary that includes:
<ul><li>What the original post is about.</li><li>The main discussion points from the top comments.</li><li>The community's overall reaction.</li><li>A brief description of the current subreddit.</li></ul>
<ul><li>AI summaries for text-based Reddit posts.</li><li>Summarizes top comments and overall discussion.</li><li>One-click integration directly into Reddit.</li><li>Lightweight and easy to use.</li></ul>

To generate a summary, the following information is sent to the backend:
<ul><li>Subreddit name</li><li>Post text</li><li>Top comments</li><li>Original poster's username aka the OP</li></ul>
No browsing history, Reddit account information, or personal data is collected, stored, logged, or associated with you.
