Understand Reddit and YouTube discussions with private, on-device AI: structured summaries, positions, insights and source comments. SummaryLens turns long, chaotic discussion threads into clear, structured summaries — instantly and completely on your device. Powered by Chrome's built-in Gemini Nano AI, it reads the thread you're viewing and produces a concise overview plus the main positions people take, each backed by links to the exact comments. AI processing runs locally in Chrome: no remote AI service, no account, and no subscription. Key features Instant AI summaries — One-click TL;DR of any thread — the topic, the tone, and the 5–8 key points, generated on-device. Works on threads with 15+ comments; larger threads are processed in parallel chunks for speed. Camps & arguments — Identifies the main sides people take in the discussion and summarizes their arguments. Every argument includes a citation — click it to jump straight to the source comment and highlight it on the page. Real-time live writing — Watch the summary being written in the side panel, stage by stage ("Writing Overview…", "Writing Camps & arguments…") with progress and remaining-time estimates. Smart language detection — Automatically detects the thread's language (30+ languages) and writes the summary in that same language — English, German, Romanian, Arabic, Japanese and more — using Chrome's multilingual on-device model. Instant title detection on video change — no page reloads needed (YouTube SPA support). Consensus indicator — At a glance color bar shows whether the community is mostly in agreement, split into two camps, or contested. Summary cache — Already summarized threads load instantly from a local on-device cache (24h) — no repeated AI runs. History & Markdown export — Browse your last 5 summaries with direct links back to the threads. Export any summary as clean Markdown — perfect for notes, newsletters or sharing. Supports your favorite communities — Reddit (new & old design) · YouTube (watch pages & Shorts) · Hacker News. How it works Open any supported thread in Chrome.
