Saved me from having twenty tabs open just to compare GPT and Claude summaries.
Cleanest sidebar extension I've used yet, integration with local models is butter.
10/10
Keeps crashing on heavy PDF parsing sometimes, but otherwise rock solid.
AI-synthesized perspectives grounded in live site inspection, pricing structure, and category benchmarks — presented as editorial viewpoints rather than individual customer testimonials.
SurfMind reads the page you are on so answers are grounded in the real content, and one chat can span multiple tabs and sources.
Switch between GPT, Claude, Gemini, OpenRouter, and hundreds of other models, or connect your own OpenAI-compatible endpoint or local LLM.
Let SurfMind click, type, and scroll through multi-step tasks, or schedule recurring jobs to run automatically.
Attach PDFs, text files, and screenshots to any chat, generate or edit images, and keep answers tied to cited sources.
Send one prompt to several models at once and connect approved tools and data sources through MCP.
SurfMind is an AI sidekick that lives inside your browser instead of in a separate tab. It reads the page you are on, so answers come from the actual content in front of you, and a single chat can span several open tabs and sources when a question requires it. You can pull a TL;DR from a long article, attach PDFs, notes, or screenshots, and keep research grounded in cited sources.
Beyond reading, SurfMind acts. Highlighting text triggers instant AI actions, images can be generated and edited in the chat, and its browser agent handles multi-step tasks such as clicking, typing, and scrolling on your behalf. Recurring work can be scheduled so it runs on its own, which turns the extension into a light automation layer on top of ordinary browsing.
SurfMind is deliberately model-agnostic and privacy-oriented. You can compare answers from several models side by side, connect your own API keys from OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, or OpenRouter, run models locally through Ollama or LM Studio, or buy SurfMind credits and skip key management entirely. The company states that conversations stay between you and your chosen provider, with SurfMind acting only as a bridge. It is available as a Chrome, Firefox, and Safari extension, including an iOS Safari version, and is localised into 47 languages.
Open several sources and ask questions across all of them, with answers tied back to the pages they came from.
Turn lengthy articles, papers, and threads into crisp takeaways, and attach PDFs for deeper questions.
Run one prompt through several models at once, or point SurfMind at a local or custom OpenAI-compatible provider.
Hand off form filling, navigation, and recurring lookups to browser actions and scheduled tasks.
