Show HN: Cut the crap – remove the AI bullshit from websites

I’ve spent a lot of time reading articles that promise a lot but never give me what I’m looking for. They’re full of clickbait titles, scary claims, and pointless filler. It’s frustrating, and it’s a waste of my time.

So I made a tool. You give it a URL, and it tries to cut through all that noise. It gives you a shorter version of the content without all the nonsense. I built this because I’m tired of falling for the same tricks. I just want the facts, not a bunch of filler.

What do you think? I’m also thinking of making a Chrome extension that does something similar—like a reader mode, but one that actually removes the crap that gets in the way of real information. Feedback welcome.
