About Paragraph Summarizer
This page opens with a short paragraph and a two-sentence summary. It is set up for small inputs: the length slider runs from one sentence up to the number of sentences you pasted. It is free, needs no sign-up and runs in your browser, so nothing you enter is uploaded.
A single paragraph has few sentences, so each choice matters. Ask for one sentence to get the most central point, or two to keep a little supporting detail.

Privacy: how it works
- Your text is processed in your browser and is not sent to Ulkaa. Only if you choose the AI rewrite, the model file is downloaded once from Hugging Face; your text is not sent there.
Tips
- Use a percentage for long documents and a sentence count for short ones.
- If the summary opens with a sentence that starts with "However" or "This", raise the length by one so the sentence before it is included.
- Text with no punctuation, such as a transcript, has no sentences to rank. Add full stops or line breaks first.
- Each line break also ends a sentence, so bullet lists in your source are treated as separate sentences.
