About

Side Chat AI transforms your browsing experience by adding a smart chat panel directly in your browser. With this extension you can:
• Open a lightweight overlay chat powered by Gemini at any time, without leaving the page.
• Automatically capture a full snapshot of the current webpage (publicly accessible) and send it into the chat.
• Ask customised prompts about the content of the page — whether you need a summary, analysis, key insights or specific questions answered.

• Keep all data local: no external servers store your page snapshots. Everything happens on device, ensuring your privacy and control.
• Work on any publicly available website — you don't need special integrations, simply browse and trigger the chat.

How it works
When you click on Attach this Tab button, the extension grabs a snapshot of the webpage you're viewing and makes it available as context for the Gemini chat. Then you type your own prompt or question (for example: "Summarize this article", "What are the key points?", "How would I implement this on my site?") and get instant, context aware answers. It's like having a browser companion that understands the page you're on.

Why use Side Chat AI?
• Save time: Don't copy paste URLs or manually summarise content.
• Stay focused: The chat panel stays in the browser, you stay on the page.
• Privacy first: Snapshots don't leave your device, making this safe for sensitive browsing.
• Empower your browsing: Whether you're researching, learning, checking news or analysing articles — you get insights instantly.
• Easy to use: No complex setup, no login required, just install and click.

Ideal for everyday users
You don't need to be a developer or power user. If you browse the web, read articles, research topics or just want smarter interactions with any website — Side Chat AI is built for you.

Get started in 3 steps:
1. Install the extension.
2. Browse to a page you want to ask about.
3. Click the Side Chat AI icon → Click on "Attach this Tab" button to send the snapshot → ask your question → receive an answer.
