The last few weeks I’ve been working on something exciting — a new workflow that lets me scrape any web page using Summaryr.com, then interact with that scraped content using a powerful AI toolset.
If you’ve ever wished you could take long articles, documentation pages, research posts, or blog entries and instantly turn them into summaries, study materials, or even formatted files… this is for you. 👇

🔍 Step 1: Scrape Any Website Using Summaryr.com
Summaryr.com lets you grab clean, structured content from any webpage. No messy HTML, no ads, no scripts — just raw text in a beautiful, uniform format.
I simply paste a URL, and Summaryr handles the scraping with surprising accuracy. Perfect for:
•Blog posts
•Documentation pages
•Tutorials
•Research papers
•News articles

🤖 Step 2: Interact with the Content Using an Advanced AI Toolkit
Once scraped, I can pass the content into an AI toolset I built — and this is where things get fun.
✨ What the AI can do:
Summarize in different styles (short, detailed, bullet points)
•Generate flashcards for study
•Create multiple-choice, true/false, and open-ended questions
•Extract key concepts, definitions, and examples
•Turn long-form content into actionable notes
•Rephrase complex content into simple explanations
This has been amazing for learning, coding tutorials, and deep-diving research quickly.

đź“„ Step 3: Convert Scraped Content into a PDF
One of my favorite features: I can instantly convert the scraped content (or the AI-processed content) into a clean, downloadable PDF.
Perfect for:
•Study packets
•Offline reading
•Course materials
•Client-ready documents
•Saving structured notes
The combination of scraping + AI → PDF has basically become my new personal content pipeline.

🧠Why This Combo Is a Game-Changer
This workflow removes hours of manual copying, rewriting, and restructuring. With Summaryr + AI:
•No more copying text from messy websites
•No more reading long content just to create notes
•No more manually writing questions/flashcards
•No more formatting PDF documents yourself
It’s all automated, fast, and ridiculously convenient.

🛠️ What I’m Building Next
I’m planning to expand this into a full AI Study & Research Assistant, including:
•Automatic topic detection
•Citation extraction
•Batch scraping + batch question generation
•Export to DOCX/Markdown
•Browser extensions for one-click scrape → summarize
If this sounds useful, let me know — I might open-source portions of it.
⸻
đź’¬ Want to Try It Yourself?
All you need is:
•A scraped URL from Summaryr.com
•Any AI model/API (OpenAI’s API works great)
•A simple script or UI to process and export the results
If you want the code samples, I can share them too.
