Ideas to use sumus every day.
You know that list of videos, articles and talks saved for later? It only grows, and later rarely comes.
With sumus, it does.
Found something worth it but no time right now? Share the link with sumus from any app or web page. With sharp intelligence, it pulls out the essence and condenses the content without losing anything important. Just the juice!
You get it as text and/or audio wherever you prefer: on Telegram, on WhatsApp, by e-mail, in just one or, on paid plans, several at once. And in the app everything is always kept, in your library.
- That hour-long talk becomes the essence, to read or hear whenever you can.
- In the car or at the gym, just press play. On iPhone, sumus shows up in CarPlay.

Everyday use

Long videos you need to understand
A lecture, a talk, an interview, that hour-long tutorial. Send the link and get what matters as text and audio, without losing the thread. On the free plan, videos up to 30 minutes.
-
Keep and organize
Your content manager
What you saved for later stops being a to-do and becomes a summary in your Library, with a link to the original. Sort it into categories, star favorites, archive what you've used and find anything with search, on your phone or at web.sumus.app.

Listen
In the car, on headphones, on a walk
Tap Play all and the day's summaries play one after another while you drive or walk. On iPhone, sumus shows up in CarPlay, so you can pick what to hear from the car's screen.
