Anyone who wants an AI assistant available on any webpage without switching tabs

Verdict

Alternatives
Overview
Monica is an AI assistant Chrome extension and web app powered by GPT-4o and Claude that works on any webpage, summarising articles, translating text, explaining jargon, writing replies, and answering questions about the content on your screen. It replaces the copy-paste loop between your browser and a separate AI chat window by bringing the AI directly to wherever you're reading or writing.
Our Take
Monica is a practical fix for the copy-paste loop between your browser and a separate AI chat window. Running as a Chrome extension, it summarizes articles, translates text, and answers questions about page content without a tab switch. The multi-model access, switching between GPT-4o and Claude from the same interface, is a genuine convenience for anyone who already pays for both but does not want two separate windows open. The free tier's 40 daily queries will not last a heavy research session. Privacy-conscious users should weigh the tradeoff of granting a browser extension access to all page content before installing.
