About Summarize PDF

Frequently asked questions
Do I need my own API key?
Yes — PDFDroid doesn't provide or pay for AI access. Get a key from console.anthropic.com; typical summaries cost a small fraction of a cent.
Is my document sent to PDFDroid?
No. The extracted text is sent directly from your browser to Anthropic's API using your key — PDFDroid has no server in between.
