Precis Extension

Precis is a tool that helps users quickly understand the main points of a webpage or article by extracting and presenting the most important information in a concise format.

Users can activate the extension by clicking on its icon in the Chrome browser toolbar, which brings up a summary of the webpage in a pop-up window.

This can be useful for individuals who don't have a lot of time to read long pieces of content or for those who want a general overview before diving into the details.

Prashant Mishra (ID: 00000099d139eb84) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 01/12/2023 Using Precis has been a big productivity boost for me as I go about researching different websites / articles on the web. It gives me a short summary on each page and I can then decide whether I want to go through the entire thing or not!

Ashutosh Dwivedi (ID: 0000004980aa9e90) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 01/04/2023 Just one word. Amazing! I didn't know how I lived without this extension earlier. After installing it I spend less time reading fluff and more time doing what's important.

Himanshu Panchal (ID: 000000ea6f7702f3) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 01/04/2023 The extension provides a concise summary of any article that I want read online. Tried on multiple types of articles and always works the way as expected.

Arnav Kapoor (ID: 000000d019adabe2) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 01/04/2023 Always wanted something which gives me the gist of any website/article/news rather than going through the whole page and this extension perfectly does the job.

Sneha Das (ID: 00000071bd6e3bb8) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 01/04/2023 This is a brilliant extension, using it regularly for quick news updates and business articles
