AI Toolbar

What it does

AI Toolbar adds a ChatGPT-based toolbar to web pages that drafts email replies and summarizes, translates or paraphrases selected text, with voice commands as an option. It is for people who want quick writing help on whichever site they are using.

Key features

• Composes replies to emails from within the page
• Translates, summarizes and paraphrases any text you select
• Accepts spoken commands instead of typed prompts
• Lets you combine prompts for multi-step requests
• Chatbot whose answers can be exported as Word or PDF files

Use cases

• Replying to a backlog of routine emails
• Summarizing a long passage before deciding whether to read it
• Dictating a request when typing is inconvenient

Getting started

After installing, select text on a page or open the toolbar to choose an action such as reply, summarize or translate, or use the voice option to speak your request.

Good to know

Selected text and prompts are sent to ChatGPT for processing. Voice commands require giving Chrome access to your microphone.
