The AI Text Summarizer Prep tool helps you prepare any block of text before sending it to an AI summarizer like ChatGPT, Claude, or Gemini. Instead of pasting raw, messy text into a chatbot and hoping for a good result, this tool cleans your input, detects its structure, estimates the token count, and generates an optimized summarization prompt you can copy and paste directly into your preferred AI assistant.
Step-by-Step
Paste your text — Drop in any article, document, email thread, or long-form content you want summarized.
Review the cleaned output — The tool strips unnecessary whitespace, fixes encoding artifacts, removes boilerplate headers/footers, and normalizes formatting.
Check the token estimate — See an approximate token count for GPT-4, Claude, and other popular models so you know if your text fits within context limits.
Choose a summary style — Select from bullet points, executive summary, one-paragraph, or key-takeaways format.
Copy the generated prompt — The tool produces a ready-to-use prompt that includes your cleaned text wrapped in the optimal instruction format for AI summarization.
Features
Noise Removal — Strips ads, navigation text, repeated headers, footers, and other non-content elements from pasted text so the AI focuses on what matters.
Structure Detection — Identifies headings, lists, paragraphs, and sections in your text, preserving meaningful structure while removing clutter.
Token Estimation — Calculates approximate token counts for OpenAI (GPT-3.5/4), Anthropic (Claude), and Google (Gemini) models. Know before you paste whether your content fits the context window.
Prompt Template Generation — Generates an optimized summarization prompt tailored to your chosen AI model and summary style. The prompt includes best-practice instructions like "summarize in bullet points, preserve key facts, keep under 200 words."
Multiple Summary Formats — Choose between bullet-point summaries, executive summaries, single-paragraph condensations, or key-takeaway extractions.
Common Use Cases
Research — Summarize lengthy academic papers, reports, or blog posts before adding them to your notes.
Email Triage — Clean and summarize long email threads to quickly extract action items.
Content Repurposing — Prepare articles for summary before creating social media posts or newsletter blurbs.
Meeting Notes — Paste raw meeting transcripts and generate a structured summary prompt for AI.
Legal & Compliance — Summarize policy documents and contracts to find key clauses quickly.
Why Use This Tool
Raw text often contains noise that confuses AI summarizers — extra whitespace, encoding issues, boilerplate, and unstructured formatting. By cleaning and structuring your text first, you get dramatically better AI-generated summaries. The token estimation ensures you never hit context-window limits unexpectedly, and the generated prompts follow proven patterns for getting concise, accurate summaries from any AI model.
