Reading full articles takes time most people don't have. Whether you're scanning industry news, catching up on research coverage, or triaging a reading list that grows faster than you can clear it, you need the core points without the padding. An AI article summarizer extracts the arguments, evidence, and conclusions from any article and delivers them in the format you choose -- bullet points, a condensed paragraph, or a single-sentence TL;DR.

Coda One's Article Summarizer handles news articles, opinion pieces, long-form features, and technical write-ups equally well. The Key Points mode is ideal for quickly scanning what an article covers. Paragraph mode gives you a cohesive overview you can share with colleagues. TL;DR mode delivers the bottom line in one sentence -- perfect for deciding whether the full article is worth your time.

The tool works with articles up to 10,000 words on paid plans (1,000 words free). Paste the article text, choose your summary format, and adjust the length slider to control how compressed the output should be. Three free summaries per day, and you can start the first task in your browser before creating an account. For journalists, analysts, and anyone who needs to process large volumes of written content, this turns a 10-minute read into a 10-second scan.

Frequently Asked Questions

What types of articles can I summarize?
Any text-based article: news reports, opinion editorials, magazine features, technical articles, blog posts, press releases, and academic article summaries. The AI adapts to the content type and structure automatically.
Does it preserve the article's key arguments?
Yes. The AI identifies the main thesis, supporting evidence, and conclusions. Key Points mode lists each distinct argument. Paragraph mode weaves them into a coherent summary. The original reasoning structure is maintained in the output.
How long should the article be for best results?
The summarizer works best with articles of 200-10,000 words. Very short articles (under 100 words) don't have enough content to meaningfully compress. Longer articles produce better summaries because there's more redundancy to cut.
Can I summarize articles in languages other than English?
The tool is optimized for English-language articles. It can handle articles with occasional non-English terms or quotes, but full non-English articles may produce lower quality summaries.
How accurate is the AI at capturing the main points?
The AI reliably identifies primary arguments and conclusions. For nuanced opinion pieces, we recommend using Key Points mode and reviewing the output against the original. Factual articles (news, reports) produce especially accurate summaries.
