Why use Mergevanta to summarize a PDF
The summary you need
Short, medium or detailed, as bullet points or paragraphs — and an optional focus, such as deadlines or costs, that gets the most space.

Keep the document's language or get the summary in Hindi, Spanish, Arabic, Chinese and 40+ other languages.
Only the text leaves
The PDF is read in your browser. Just its text travels, encrypted, to our AI model, and nothing is stored after the summary is sent back.
Long documents too
Longer PDFs are read in parts and then summarized as a whole, and you can pick the pages to cover.
