Example

See it in action

Before

Sign-ups grew 24% this quarter, driven mainly by the new onboarding flow. Churn rose slightly from 3.1% to 3.8% after a March pricing change. Support ticket volume stayed flat despite the larger user base. Next quarter the plan is to revisit pricing tiers and keep investing in onboarding.

After

Sign-ups rose 24% on the back of new onboarding, while churn ticked up to 3.8% after a pricing change; support volume held steady. Next quarter: revisit pricing tiers and keep improving onboarding.

How to summarize text without losing the point

Summarising is really the art of deciding what to leave out. A good summary keeps the handful of points that carry the meaning and drops everything else, without distorting what remains. The hard part is never the shortening; it is shortening faithfully.

Extractive vs. rewritten summaries

There are two broad approaches. An extractive summary pulls the most important existing sentences out and stitches them together, so nothing is invented. A rewritten (abstractive) summary rephrases the whole thing more smoothly in fewer words. Extractive is safer for accuracy; rewritten usually reads better. Knowing which one you are getting helps you judge how much to trust it.

Choose a length that fits the job

  • Short, a one-line gist, for deciding whether to read the full thing at all.
  • Medium, a few key points, for a quick briefing or a shareable recap.
  • Detailed, more supporting points, for longer or more technical source material.

Keep the caveats and conditions

The most dangerous thing a summary can do is drop a condition. "Approved, provided finance signs off by Friday" must not collapse into "Approved." Numbers, deadlines, exceptions and if/then conditions carry the real weight, a faithful summary keeps them even while it cuts everything around them.

A quick sanity check

Read your summary and ask whether someone who saw only it would reach the same conclusion as someone who read the whole source. If the summary over-promises, under-states, or loses a crucial "but," pull it back. Summarising should save the reader time, never cost them accuracy.
