A good short version does not end the reading process. It improves the next question. Once you know the article's main claim and rough structure, you can ask for the missing context instead of asking the app to guess what you care about.
Workflow
- Send the article link into Summarizr.
- Read the short version closely enough to notice what still feels incomplete.
- Ask a follow-up question about background, tradeoffs, examples, or a specific claim.
- Return to the source if the answer depends on exact wording or evidence.
Why the second question is better than the first
Generic prompts are vague because the user is still orienting. After the first pass, the question becomes narrower and more useful. That usually leads to better depth with less wasted prompting.
Best-fit follow-up questions
- What is the author's main argument missing?
- What evidence supports the key claim?
- What are the practical consequences of this point?
- How does this compare with another view or source?
Limits
Follow-up questions improve orientation and research speed, but they do not remove the need to verify important facts in the original article.
