One AI assistant that plugs ChatGPT, Claude and Gemini into every tab
Switch between GPT, Claude, Gemini, DeepSeek, Mistral and Llama class models from a single interface instead of juggling separate subscriptions.
Summarize articles, YouTube videos, PDFs and documents in place, then ask follow-up questions grounded in that content.
Draft and reply to emails in Gmail, compose posts and comments for X and LinkedIn, and repurpose web pages or videos into blogs and articles.
Generate images from prompts using more than 20 image models and multiple aspect ratios for web and social output.
Turn hours of YouTube into minutes of knowledge
Any YouTube video collapses into a structured summary with key points and clickable timestamps, shown directly on the video page.
Ask natural-language questions about the content and receive answers tied to precise timestamps in the transcript.
The AI highlights the most important ideas in a video so you can skim the substance without scrubbing the timeline.
Saved summaries and insights are organized into a personal library you can search and revisit later.
