About
SkimIt.ai provides AI-generated summaries of articles, delivered to your email inbox within approximately 10-15 minutes. Users can send any article link to go@skimit.ai, ensuring the URL is the first link in the email body. The service allows users to CC friends, enabling them to also receive the original article and the AI-generated summary. The AI processing is powered by OpenAI's GPT technology. SkimIt.ai was built as a hackathon project by Karthik Sridharan and Alex Furmansky to practice AI text processing, email handling, and web scraping. It's intended as a fun project for quick key takeaways, and users are advised that the content may not be accurate and is for entertainment purposes only. Data retention is limited to sender and CC'd email addresses, and the first URL.
