Comparison Between Summarizer.Org And QuillBot Summarizer

  1. Summarizer.org Rundown

As pointed out before, Summarizer.org is a state-of-the-art summarizing tool entrusted by professionals and amateurs worldwide. It’s totally free to use. It doesn’t even cost you time as it pours out outcomes as quickly as possible.

It supports six different languages, and you may even tweak the format with it by applying bullet points. It has the “Best Line” feature which automatically picks the best line from the text you inputted. The lone line can represent the main idea of your text very nicely.

In terms of modes on offer, it has two. Apart from that, you can set the summarized outcome’s length. It is very useful for meeting certain standard requirements. That’s about it for now. We’ll break down the outcome quality and two modes in-depth later.

  1. Quillbot Summarizer Rundown

The reason why we say both tools are state-of-the-art is because both utilize AI effectively. This attribute is more apparent in the Quillbot Summarizer. The interface is much busier than Summarizer.org. Whether it’s good or bad depends on your outlook.

In terms of modes on offer and “summary length” features, it’s two sides of the same coin. It too is free like Summarizer.org. With the brief rundowns over with, let’s take a look at the feature comparisons of these tools.

  1. Feature Comparison

In a nutshell, it’s hard to find any outright noticeable differences between these tools since they’re so great at what they do. The only way to properly differentiate between them is through feature comparison as you’re about to see.

  • Summarization Methods

In terms of the summarization process using online tools, there are two modes of operating. Extractive summarization and abstractive summarization. The Quillbot Summarizer is heavily stringent on abstractive summarization while Summarizer.org uses both methods.

Extractive summarization involves selecting and combining existing sentences or phrases from the original text to form the summary. Abstractive summarization involves creating a summary that is not a verbatim copy of sentences from the original text. Instead, it generates new, concise sentences that capture the essential meaning of the source.

Both methods have their drawbacks and advantages which is why it is crucial for an online summarizing tool to have both options like Summarizer.org.

  • Supported Languages

This is a feature where the Quillbot Summarizer is completely out of its element. Summarizer.org supports six different languages while this is the best I could find for Quillbot Summarizer:

Meanwhile, the six languages that Summarizer.org supports include English, Indonesian, Spanish, Portuguese, French, and Dutch.

  • Supported Input Formats

Another similarity these two tools share. They both support popular file formats like Word, JPG, TXT, etc. Both allow you to upload these files which the tools will read and paste in their input boxes instantly.

The other option is that you can manually paste texts if you feel it to be more convenient. It’s an open field for you to decide.

  • Output Formats

Yet again the similarities don’t end except Quillbot Summarizer goes an extra step to flex its statistics-bearing capabilities. Excluding output quality, both tools offer the same number of options to download or copy the output summary.

The difference here comes in the form of extra add-on options like “Show Bullets” and “Best Line” features of Summarizer.org. With Quillbot Summarizer it’s “Statistics” and instant feedback features.

  • Outstanding Feature

Both tools boast outstanding features. With Summarizer.org, it’s the availability of precise summaries in different languages. With Quillbot Summarizer, it’s the Chrome extension that allows you to use Quillbot Summarizer anywhere you want. It bears no charges.

That’s it for feature comparisons. Let’s look at the comparison that matters the most…

  1. Output Quality

The summarizer mode of Summarizer.org demonstrates textbook extractive summarization. It’s as accurate as extractive summarization gets without sacrificing any key points from the mountain of texts dropped in the input box.

Its ‘AI Summarizer mode showcases flawless abstractive summarization for the most part. Its advanced algorithms expertly utilize natural language processing (NLP) techniques to get the most concise and original summarization you can get without sacrificing anything.

Right above you can see that summarized a brilliant article by Syncbricks comparing Power BI with Tableau. Both tools are shaping the data science industry, and everyone should know about them. 

Unfortunately for us, it’s a bit on the longer side which means it’s not easy to digest in one go in the current shape it’s in. The standout bullet list feature of summarizer.org allows you to consume the best points of the article that are most important.

Quillbot Summarizer on the other hand has decided to put all its eggs in one AI-driven abstractive summarization basket. Kudos to it though as it’s the best use of AI-based algorithms for summarization that we’ve witnessed so far.

However, there will always remain the cautionary tale of double-checking anything AI doles out as it’s not 100% safe or accurate all the time. Still, Quillbot Summarizer remains the best realization of NLP thus far.

The most clean and concise result by the tool. For all the greatness this tool possesses though, it is held back by its limited word count for free users which is only a measly 600 words. Not the industry standard but you can make do by breaking up large amounts of texts into 600-word segments until you reach your content length.

  1. User Experience

This is a subjective portion of the comparison. Each person will have their own preference of what they expect from a user interface when they check online tools. Summarizer.org has a simplistic yet elegant UI.

The overall user experience was great with Summarizer.org. It is simple to use with written guides on how to use it available below the whole interface.

Quillbot Summarizer has a classy vibe to its user interface. It is certainly not shying away from bombarding a ton of options for you to interact with. Might be the better-looking UI of the two.

The user experience for this was a bit dry, especially after learning the word count limit and being forced to sign up to increase the limit to 1200 words. Still 300 less than its counterpart.

Any quality feature or moment it provides is short lived as it immediately asks you to pay for a premium plan. Not exactly grounds for an amazing experience.

Conclusion

Comparing any tools of the same type is always a big task especially if the tools are very good at their jobs. This is exactly the conundrum we faced when we started to compare the two. Eventually, we found out that if you press hard enough, you will find glaring differences between the tools. You just have to know where to look. 

Both tools have their own strengths and weaknesses. While we try not to portray it as winners and losers in comparison articles, it’s clearly evident which tool stands out.
