V2 of Article summarizer is live

It has been a month now since the first release of the extension.

Our expenses on OpenAi are rising and we decided to limit the free version to 15 free (tokens) summarisations to start bootstrapping the project. Monetize it.

How did we do that?

  1. We added a counter that lets users know how many free tokens they have
  2. We created a product on Gumroad: https://shapelabs.gumroad.com/l/summarizer-tokens
  3. After the user spends free tokens, she/he can buy 100 tokens for 2€.

What do you think about the move? To soon?

    Did you see the Opera browser has launched with chatgpt baked into the sidebar. Prompts are 1-click including 'Shorten'. Shorten = Summarize. All formatting issues sorted etc
