Skim Recap

Skim Recap is a Chrome extension designed for fast-paced readers and knowledge seekers who want to maximize their comprehension while browsing articles. It intelligently detects passages the user might have skipped during quick scrolling and presents them in a convenient card beside the cursor, ensuring no important information is missed. Additionally, when a term or phrase causes confusion, users can select it and press the Feynman button, prompting Gemma to generate a clear explanation based on the surrounding context, heading, and page title. What sets Skim Recap apart is its local processing through LiteRT-LM and WebGPU, eliminating the need for accounts or external API calls, which enhances privacy and speed. Suitable for students, researchers, and professionals who consume large amounts of content rapidly, the tool enhances understanding and retention without disrupting browsing flow. Its combination of skip tracking and instant explanations makes it a valuable addition to any information-heavy workflow.
