AutoSummarize

Post by Rudi »

Hi,

AutoSummarize was removed in Word 2010 and subsequent versions. My question is if anyone knows of an alternative feature/add-in/macro that can provide similar functionality as AutoSummarize did? It does not have to be built into Word as I just need to provide the feature the text and get a result that I can transfer back to a word processor. If it is online, it would be best if it was a secure feature as the data is sensitive in nature.

Any suggestions would be welcome.
TX
Regards,
Rudi

Hmmm... most tools I could find are online, and all except one don't even use https. The one with https got a mediocre review on MakeUseOf, so that one is out too.

Open Text Summarizer is an open-source offline tool. I haven't tried it, but I guess it is a command-line tool, i.e. not user-friendly.
Best wishes,
Hans
