genei vs Summify

genei is an AI-powered research and note-taking tool for analysing webpages, documents, and PDF files. It can extract and define keywords, search within and across documents, and produce summaries of documents or sections. Its natural language processing supports abstractive summarisation, entity annotation, semantic search, and question answering. The web app organizes documents into projects and supports comments, highlights, custom definitions, and notes. It also provides citation management and reference generation for uploaded documents. The Chrome extension can summarise webpages or save them for later reading. genei supports PDF and web.x files, but currently handles English-language documents only and is designed for desktop rather than mobile devices. The free Extension plan offers one-click webpage summaries. A 14-day trial is listed, and the pricing note lists paid access from £3.99/user/mo on annual billing. Separately listed monthly plans are Genei Basic at $5.49 a month and Genei Pro at $20.99 a month; Pro adds multi-document summarisation, search, and question answering, along with other features. The terms describe personal and non-commercial use, with enterprise subscriber access for authorised institutional users.

Summify turns PDFs, PowerPoint files, YouTube videos, and articles into structured insights, with options for flashcards, quizzes, and audio. Its iPhone app also accepts DOCX, TXT, MP3 or other audio, YouTube URLs, and web articles. After a summary, users can make Learn cards and quizzes; eligible plans add mind maps, audio lessons, or podcasts. The public beta has four free core lenses, including Study, while Contract and Exam Prep are paid-plan options. YouTube summaries depend on extracted transcripts, so a video needs available captions or a transcript. Summify extracts text on its servers and sends that text and prompts to configured third-party AI providers, including Groq and Google Gemini. Its privacy page says uploaded content is not sold, and the home page states that uploads use TLS 1.3 and files are processed in memory only. The service does not offer a marketed document library or long-term cloud storage product. Free allows 5 analyses/day. Scholar costs $4.99 a month and requires an.edu school email; Pro costs $7.99 a month. Subscriptions use Polar checkout and can be canceled anytime.
