Aginsi vs Eightify

Aginsi is an AI research co-pilot that turns reading material into summaries with key passages highlighted. It accepts articles, academic papers, PDFs, long threads, reports, and video transcripts; summaries keep their references and show the amount of compression and estimated reading time saved. The free Margin plan costs nothing and includes 10 monthly summaries for articles and PDFs. Scholar costs $9 a month and adds unlimited summaries, a library with tags and search, Markdown and PDF export, and a browser companion. Faculty costs $29 a month and adds team seats, shared shelves, batch and API access, and priority support. The product is available through web, extension, and API. Aginsi says it discards submitted source documents and retains only summaries users choose to save. Source text is processed transiently and not used to train models. Users can request access to, correction of, export of, or deletion of account data and saved summaries by contacting [email protected]. The company describes itself as a small studio in Helsinki.

Eightify uses AI to summarize YouTube videos and identify key information. Its summaries include timestamps for jumping to a topic, an overview of top comments, and video transcripts; it also offers a transcript generator and can summarize transcripts. Users can shape key insights by choosing a focus, format, length, and grouping, then share summaries as links or export them. Summaries and translations are available in more than 40 languages. The Chrome extension listing says it handles videos up to 10 hours and is powered by Claude and ChatGPT. Eightify names podcasts, interviews, science and technology, business, investing, news, health, and personal growth as possible subjects. It is available on Android, iOS, web, and as a browser extension. A free plan and free trial are available. Eightify Pro costs $9.99 a month, billed monthly, or $59.99 a year, billed annually. It does not summarize webpages or accept file uploads. Eightify says it collects contact, device, and usage data and applies security measures, while noting that absolute protection cannot be guaranteed.
