原文外掛簡介
Pointwise Summary helps your readers get to the point — fast. It adds one-click TL;DR summary buttons to any post or page, powered by six leading AI models: ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, Perplexity, and Google AI.
Modern readers scan before they commit. Give them a reason to stay.
When a visitor clicks a summary button, Pointwise Summary builds a prompt from your post and opens it directly in the AI model of your choice — ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, Perplexity, or Google AI — ready to generate a short TL;DR, a list of key points, or a detailed overview. You control the style, length, placement, and prompt. No API key or server-side account with this plugin is required — visitors use whatever access they already have to that AI provider’s own site.
What is TL;DR and Why It Matters
TL;DR (“Too Long; Didn’t Read”) is a popular internet acronym that originated in online forums and Usenet newsgroups in the early 2000s. It was added to the Oxford English Dictionary in 2013 and now serves two purposes:
As a response — Acknowledging that content is too lengthy to read in full
As a label — Introducing a concise summary of the main points
In today’s fast-paced digital world, readers scan before committing time to a full article. Adding TL;DR summaries helps readers quickly identify whether your content is worth their time — and keeps them on the page longer when it is.
Why TL;DR buttons improve your website:
Combat information overload — Help readers grasp key points in seconds
Respect reader time — Modern audiences appreciate quick content previews
Reduce bounce rates — Engage visitors who might otherwise leave without reading
Improve accessibility — Make lengthy content more navigable and user-friendly
Increase engagement — Summaries encourage readers to explore the full content
Boost SEO — Better engagement metrics (lower bounce, higher time-on-page) signal quality to search engines
What is Pointwise Summary?
Pointwise Summary is a WordPress AI Summarize plugin that combines three essential capabilities:
AI-powered text summarization — Generate TL;DR summaries and key points using six leading AI models
Smart display options — A floating action button (FAB), or automatic inline insertion
Complete customization — Place summary buttons anywhere, customize their appearance, and control every aspect of behavior
In the age of information overload, readers scan content before committing time. This plugin helps visitors quickly understand whether your content is worth their time, improving engagement and reducing bounce rates.

Social Sharing
Pointwise Summary includes built-in social sharing that places share buttons directly alongside your AI summary buttons — no separate sharing plugin needed.
Readers can share your post or article to any of 7 supported networks with a single click, right from the same button row they use to generate summaries.
Supported networks:
X / Twitter — with optional @mention tag for your account
Facebook
LinkedIn
Telegram
WhatsApp
Raindrop.io
Email
How it works:
Enable social sharing from Display Settings → Social Sharing
Toggle each network on or off individually — only show the platforms relevant to your audience
Share buttons appear in the same row as your AI summary buttons, keeping the interface clean and unified
X / Twitter supports an optional mention field so shares can automatically tag your account
Why it matters:
When readers find your content useful, sharing is the natural next step. Having share buttons immediately available — in the same place as the summary — removes friction and increases the likelihood of your content being shared across social platforms.
Perfect Use Cases

Educational content and e-learning — Give students quick access to lesson summaries and key points

Content marketers improving engagement
Educators creating accessible lessons
Business professionals sharing reports
How It Works
Install and activate Pointwise Summary
Go to AI Summary (TL;DR) → AI Settings to choose which AI models are enabled and customize their prompts
Customize button text under Advanced Settings (e.g., “Summarize”, “Get TL;DR”, “Quick Summary”)
Choose a visual style under Display Settings → Style
Set your placement under Display Settings → Automatic Insertion (before title, after title, before content, after content)
Save changes and view your posts to see the summary buttons in action
When a reader clicks the button, they’re taken to a new tab on the selected AI model’s own site with the post’s content already filled in as a ready-to-run prompt — no copying and pasting, no API key, and no account with this plugin required.
External services
This plugin connects to third-party AI and social sharing services that are external to your website. These connections are optional and are only triggered by an explicit action from your site’s visitor (clicking an AI summary button or a social share button) — nothing is sent automatically or in the background.
AI summary buttons
When a visitor clicks an AI summary button, the plugin builds a prompt from the current post’s title, content, and URL, then opens a new browser tab directly to the selected AI provider’s own website with that prompt pre-filled via the page URL. From that point, the visitor’s browser communicates directly with the AI provider. This plugin does not operate its own server-side API, does not require an API key, and does not store or receive the AI’s response.

Social sharing buttons
When a visitor clicks a social share button, the plugin opens that network’s own share dialog in a new tab (or the visitor’s email client for the Email option), passing only the current post’s title and URL. No other content is sent, and nothing reaches the network unless the visitor completes the share on that network’s own site.

Source Code
The JavaScript shipped in /build (admin dashboard, frontend script, and Gutenberg block) is compiled from human-readable source. The full uncompiled source is publicly available at:
https://github.com/theaminulai/pointwise-summary
Build tooling: this plugin uses @wordpress/scripts (webpack + Babel) via npm.
npm install — install dependencies
npm run start — development build with watch mode
npm run build — production build, outputs to /build
Bundled third-party libraries
This plugin bundles the JavaScript libraries it depends on directly inside /build, rather than loading any of them from a remote CDN at runtime. Every script the plugin loads is served from your own site.
Monaco Editor (https://github.com/microsoft/monaco-editor, MIT License) — powers the Custom CSS code field under Advanced Settings. Its runtime files (editor core, syntax highlighting, workers) are copied into this plugin at build time and served locally; no request is made to any CDN (such as cdn.jsdelivr.net) to load them.
React, Redux, and related UI libraries used to build the admin dashboard are likewise compiled into /build/admin/admin.js and served from this plugin — none are fetched remotely.
Usage
Basic Setup
Go to AI Summary (TL;DR) → AI Settings to choose your AI models and customize their prompts
Go to AI Summary (TL;DR) → Display Settings to customize button appearance and placement
Save changes and view your posts to see the summary buttons in action
Pro Tips
For blog posts:
Place summary buttons at the top of long articles
Use button text like “Don’t have time? Get the TL;DR →”
Link to a summary section anchored at the bottom of the post
For documentation:
Add “Quick Start” and “Full Guide” buttons side by side
Use contrasting colors to make the summary option stand out
Try vertical button stacks in sidebars for easier scanning
For maximum engagement:
Use action-oriented labels: “Summarize This”, “Get Key Points”, “Show TL;DR”
Add emoji for visual cues: “⚡ Quick Read” or “📝 Full Article”
Test different button positions to find what works best for your audience
