Who wants to read long emails, newsletters, or articles? Not us.

If you don't either… tl;dr is the app for you.

tl;dr uses the best AI models to summarize any webpage or email in about a second. News, newsletters, Substacks, Reddit threads, LinkedIn feed, YouTube videos — get the key points instantly and move on with your life.

Did disaster strike somewhere in the world? Be informed–without getting depressed.

Did POTUS do something crazy today? Find out–without losing your morning.

Did your favorite LinkedIn influencer do something amazing with AI? Find out all about it without doomscrolling.

A summary you can talk to!
Ask follow-up questions with AI chat. It's not just a summary — you can have a conversation about it. Ask clarifying questions, dig deeper into specific points, or get context you're missing. It's like having a research assistant for everything you read.

Share the good stuff. Found something worth sharing? One click creates a beautiful, shareable link (tl-dr.cc) that anyone can read — no extension needed. Share summaries with friends, coworkers, or drop them in Slack.

Key Features:
• One-click summaries of any webpage, email, or YouTube video
• AI chat to ask follow-up questions about what you just read
• Shareable summary links anyone can view
• Gmail integration — summarize newsletters and long emails in-place
• Beautiful side panel UI with dark mode
• Summary history with search — find anything you've summarized before
• Works in any language–translate any article into your preferred language.

How It Works:

Click the tl;dr icon on any page or email
Get an instant, well-structured summary in the side panel
Ask follow-up questions with AI chat
Share it with a single click or find it later in your searchable, categorized history

Searchable History
Vaguely remember that article mentioning some cool app or tool? Or that LinkedIn post that was interesting - two weeks ago? Anything saved is searchable with AI. If you remember anything about it–pull it right up.

Of course you can just look in a timeline, instead, if that's easier. And you can share any summary, including ones from long ago.

Fully free to use. No API keys, no paywall, no catch. Install and start summarizing.

Your privacy matters:
• Summaries are yours, private unless you share them
• We don't track your browsing
• No personal data collected or sold
• tl;dr is GDPR, CCPA and CDPA compliant

Favorite use cases:
• That great newsletter that is just. too. long.
• Articles from The Atlantic. Who has that kind of time?
• Long emails from parents and in-laws
• Your boss's wordy emails
• YouTube videos you don't have 20 minutes for
• Reddit threads that went off the rails
• Articles your friend swears you "have to read"
