What it does
ChatGPT Optimizer adds a collection of interface tweaks to ChatGPT in Chrome, such as copy buttons and read-aloud controls. It is meant for regular ChatGPT users who find long chats awkward to navigate and want small conveniences built in.
Key features
- Adds copy buttons for messages in plain text or HTML
- Includes a scroll-to-latest button for long conversations
- Reads responses aloud with a button to stop playback
- Brings a set of additional interface options to the ChatGPT page
Use cases
- Copying formatted answers into a document
- Listening to a long answer instead of reading it
- Jumping back to the newest message in a long chat
Getting started
Open ChatGPT after installing and the extra buttons appear on messages; adjust which features are active from the extension's settings.
Good to know
It only changes the ChatGPT website and may break temporarily when that site updates. Check its Chrome Web Store page for current terms.
