In their own words
Gistory
Gistory is an article-saving app that creates AI summaries when a reader saves an article. Its TL;DR includes three key points and key insights, with a longer summary as an option. Summaries are available in English, Spanish, French, German, Portuguese, Japanese, Chinese, and Hindi. Readers can use distraction-free reading, dark mode, full-text search, and offline access. Articles can be saved from its mobile apps or Chrome and Firefox extensions, and the library syncs across platforms. Gistory is available on web, iOS, Android, and as an extension. The free tier includes unlimited article saves, 90 days of history, and 10 AI summaries per month. Premium costs $7.99 a month and adds unlimited summaries and history, plus Notion and Obsidian integrations. Gistory says it does not bypass paywalls; for paywalled articles it saves the URL, title, and any available preview. It says it uses industry-standard encryption, does not sell personal information, and allows users to export or delete their data. A seven-day trial is listed.
