The problem it solves

You come across a long news article you want to understand quickly, or return to later, but reading and summarizing it yourself takes time you don't have. Digging back through old articles to find one detail is even more of a hassle.

Who it fits

Researchers, students, journalists, and anyone who wants a quick, searchable digest of the news they read.

How it works

  1. You send a news article link to the Telegram bot
  2. The system scrapes the article's text, images, and metadata
  3. AI reads the content and writes a summary with the key points
  4. You receive the summary, a downloadable report, and any images back in Telegram
  5. The article is also saved so you can ask follow-up questions about it anytime
What you get

Articles you understand without leaving Telegram

You can send any news link to Telegram and get an instant summary, images, and a report you can revisit and question anytime.

What you get

A Telegram summary of the article plus an ongoing chat you can use to ask questions about it.

What you need

A Telegram bot, an OpenAI API key, and a database for storing article content.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
