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.
Highlight text and get answers straight from the context menu
Works with any page: highlight a word or phrase and use the context menu to submit it.
The selection is sent to a remote service that searches a JSON file for a corresponding answer.
Results appear immediately in a browser alert so you can read them without leaving the page.
Small, focused add-on that does one job: fetch relevant information for the text you selected.
