## About

## What it does
URL Content Summary fetches a web page, extracts its readable content, and returns an LSA-based extractive summary. Send a `url` and, optionally, `sentences` to control how many summary sentences you want back.

The response includes the original `url`, the page `title`, the generated `summary`, and basic length metrics: `input_length`, `summary_length`, and `summary_sentences`. That makes it useful when you need a compact representation of an article, blog post, or news page without building your own crawler and summariser.

Use it to preview long-form content, power reading lists, generate internal digests, or compare how much text was reduced after extraction. Because the summary is extractive, it stays close to the source wording and is better suited to factual pages where preserving phrasing matters.

If you already have article URLs in your workflow, URL Content Summary gives you a structured way to turn them into concise, machine-readable summaries.
