What iBrief is

A summariser for web reading. Give it an article and it returns the main points, which you can share as a link with people who need the gist rather than the whole piece.

It is a screening tool: the original still matters.

What you can do with it

What to watch out for

Summaries miss detail, so key facts and citations need checking in the original

Input quality, whether output can be verified, and platform, privacy and licensing rules.
