Bardeen's playbook leverages the power of AI to summarize and translate content from any web page into your preferred language with ease. Whether you're conducting research, marketing, or simply trying to understand information in a foreign language, this tool can be a significant time-saver. It automates the process of extracting text, summarizing it, and translating it, thus enhancing your productivity.

Here's how this workflow provides a summary translation of the content on the current web page:

  • Step 1: Capture Page Content - The workflow begins by getting the current page as HTML, ensuring that all text on the page is ready for processing.
  • Step 2: Extract Text from HTML - It then converts the HTML content to text, stripping away all formatting to leave just the plain text.
  • Step 3: Summarize Text - Using OpenAI's advanced algorithms, the workflow generates a concise summary of the extracted text.
  • Step 4: Translate Summary - Finally, the summarized text is translated into your target language using DeepL's translation services. You'll need to specify the language you want the summary translated into.
