  - **Local Extractive (CPU & Fast)**: Runs a custom rule-based TF-IDF sentence extraction algorithm locally on CPU.
  - **Transformers (API Mode)**: Leverages state-of-the-art abstractive summarization models (like `facebook/bart-large-cnn`) via Hugging Face's Serverless API with your personal access token.
- **Adjustable Compression**: Choose from Short (15%), Medium (35%), or Detailed (55%) summary target ratios.
- **Statistics Report**: Automatically displays original vs. summary word counts and compression rates.
- **Data Export**: Easily download generated summaries as `.txt` files.
