Gistify

Gistify is an intelligent document-understanding platform built to eliminate information overload and help users grasp the essence of long, complex documents within seconds. Instead of manually reading dozens of pages, users can upload PDFs or paste text, and Gistify instantly performs multi-stage AI processing including classification, summarization, entity extraction, and actionable insights generation. The system uses custom lightweight agents optimized for fast inference, making it suitable even for limited-hardware environments and hackathon-scale deployments. With a clean, modern interface inspired by minimalistic landing-page design, Gistify offers an intuitive workflow: users input text or upload files on the landing screen, and detailed results are presented on a dedicated output page. The platform extracts key entities (people, organizations, locations), highlights important concepts, and generates prioritized action plans based on document context. This makes Gistify ideal for students, professionals, researchers, and teams who need fast insights without reading full documents. The project emphasizes accessibility, responsiveness, and smooth user experience. It is built with Next.js, Tailwind, and lightweight backend analysis modules. The entire pipeline can run using open-source models or rule-based heuristics, making the system usable without expensive GPUs. Gistify represents the future of rapid knowledge extraction — transforming dense information into clear, actionable intelligence for everyone.
