Highlight text. Ask AI. Instant summaries and explanations on any page.
Press ⌘⇧E (Ctrl+Shift+E on Windows) with nothing selected to get a concise summary of the whole page, led by a one-line gist and then the key points.
Select any term, clause or paragraph and ExplainTXT explains just that part in plain language, right where you are reading.
Answers open in a sidebar so you can ask additional questions about the page without leaving it or opening a separate chatbot tab.
Run it from the keyboard shortcut, a highlight context menu, the toolbar icon, or an alternate ⌘⇧S shortcut, and rebind the keys in Chrome.
