Chat with PDFs, books, websites, YouTube videos and podcasts
Upload PDFs, EPUB books, text files or paste a web article link, YouTube video or podcast episode and chat with the content in one interface.
Responses are backed by the passages they were drawn from, so you can check the source text instead of taking an answer on faith.
Large documents are summarised with their whole context in mind, which matters for ebooks and lengthy reports.
The system supports many languages and replies in the language of your question.
AI sidebar and browser agent for reading, writing and research
A persistent panel that reads the page you are on and answers follow-ups with GPT, Claude or Gemini without copying content into another tab.
Summarise long articles, PDFs and YouTube videos, extract key points, and ask detailed questions about the source material.
Translate webpages, PDFs and images, compare bilingual output side by side, and have content read aloud for review on the move.
Delegate multi-step tasks across real websites — price comparison, form filling, research and inbox triage — using your existing logged-in sessions.
