Routes queries to selected AI model with surrounding text as context, enabling clarification of complex passages, technical terms, or unfamiliar concepts without leaving the page.
Unique: Provides context-aware explanations by automatically capturing surrounding text from webpage and routing to selected AI model, enabling model-specific explanation quality (Fast for quick clarifications, Smart for nuanced analysis) without manual context copying.
vs alternatives: Offers in-context explanations with model selection (vs. dictionary/glossary tools which lack AI understanding, or ChatGPT which requires manual context copying), enabling seamless learning support within reading workflows.
Implements persistent floating sidebar UI accessible via keyboard shortcut or toggle button, maintaining conversation context and feature access across page navigation. Sidebar persists webpage content context (text, images, links) enabling features like summarization, chat, and rewriting to reference current page without re-capturing context.
Unique: Implements persistent floating sidebar that maintains webpage context across multiple AI features and queries, enabling users to perform summarization, chat, rewriting, and other tasks on the same page content without re-capturing context or switching interfaces.
vs alternatives: Offers unified persistent sidebar for all AI features (vs. ChatGPT sidebar which is chat-only, or separate tools requiring context re-entry), enabling seamless multi-task workflows within a single interface that doesn't require page navigation.
Registers right-click context menu handlers on webpage text selections, enabling one-click access to rewriting, summarization, explanation, translation, and other AI features without opening sidebar or typing prompts. Context menu options dynamically populate based on selected text type and available features.
Unique: Integrates AI features directly into browser context menu with one-click access to rewriting, summarization, translation, and explanation without opening sidebar or typing prompts, enabling rapid text processing workflows.
vs alternatives: Offers context menu integration for quick AI actions (vs. sidebar-only tools like ChatGPT, or tools requiring manual prompt entry), enabling power users to perform rapid text processing with minimal friction.
Integrates with the browser's right-click context menu to provide one-click access to MaxAI features for selected text or images. Users right-click on text, images, or links and select from a submenu of actions (summarize, rewrite, translate, explain, search, generate image, etc.). The extension captures the selected content and applies the chosen action using the user's default model and settings. Supports custom context menu items for frequently-used prompts.
Unique: Integrates MaxAI actions directly into the browser's native context menu, allowing one-click access without opening the sidebar. Most competitors require sidebar or separate UI interaction.
vs alternatives: Faster than sidebar-based tools because it provides instant access to common actions via right-click without additional UI navigation.
Allows users to select from 5 AI model families (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Meta, Mistral) with 3 performance tiers (fast, smart, reasoning) for each action. The extension displays available models, their capabilities, and current quota usage before executing requests. Users can switch models per-request or set a default model. The extension tracks quota consumption across models and tiers, warning users when approaching limits. Quota resets monthly based on subscription tier.
Unique: Provides unified access to 5 AI model families (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Meta, Mistral) with real-time quota tracking in a single extension, eliminating the need for separate API keys or tool switching. Most competitors lock users to a single model or require manual API management.
vs alternatives: More flexible than ChatGPT or Claude directly because it offers model choice and quota visibility without requiring separate subscriptions or API keys.
