  KTool[0] is fairly new so I can't claim it "outperform" Amazon's solution. However if you read the recent reviews from their Chrome Extension page[1], the majority of complaints was that the article never arrived. I just tried sending this article[2] and 10 minutes later it still hasn't delivered yet. This article contains a lot of images, so I understand it's not going to be quick, but with KTool, it does deliver within 2 minutes. But that is not the only reason why I build KTool. I don't want the articles to include links when reading on my Kindle because it's bad UX (easy to mis-tap), distracting and reduce comprehension (see here[3] and here[4]). Instead, I push all these links to the bottom of the article, which make it still accessible yet improve the reading experience.

    Update: 5 hours later, no sign of the article being delivered. It think it's safe to assume the Amazon solution doesn't work ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
