Extension summary

Essentially, a browser "research" co-pilot. Reading an academic paper? Planning your next vacation? Analyzing a business or a company? Sifting through webpages looking for information, manually copying it elsewhere?

Check out Essence, the ultimate tool for interactive summarization and note-taking using advanced AI models. Core features:

💡 Process any webpage into a structured summary in one of our processing styles (Travel, Business Analytics, Scientific Papers, Generic, Bullet Points, Explain and Table). No need to settle for only generic summaries. 💡 Ask questions about the page! 💡 Export everything to spreadsheets or Notion.

Other features: ⚙ Process highlighted text. ⚙ Supporting PDF formats. ⚙ Mini ChatGPT built-in: start your questions with "/chat" and it will act as a chat bot with no regard to the current page (but with regard to previous questions). ⚙ Supporting offline files: make sure to allow offline files through "Manage Extension". ⚙ Save session to custom dividers in-app. ⚙ Edit the summaries, adding your own notes.
