(2025-06-24) It kept prompting me for payment, but since the main features didn't have a trial option, I decided to switch to TinaMind, where all the premium features are offered at a reasonable price.
(2025-06-22) excellent
(2025-06-05) It is amazing from summarising your college work or assignments with great accuracy. One can easily skim through the webpage/ website content through this amazing go-to extension for everyone ranging from students- working professionals- professors- employees etc. Thanks for this great feature.
(2025-05-31) Would not let me log in on the extension until I uninstalled it and re-installed. And then didn't provide some of the advertised features.
(2025-05-24) They've started limiting their PRO users so that it's no longer unlimited. False advertising.
(2025-05-22) It's SO SLOW. Every single question takes over 30 seconds to start populating an answer. Even simple questions like "calculate dimensions for ..." I've been consistently using it for 2 weeks and it's not getting any better.. note, I'm on a paid plan using Merlin magic
(2025-05-01) It is not working
(2025-04-21) It kept prompting me for payment, but since the main features didn't have a trial option, I decided to switch to TinaMind, where all the premium features are offered at a reasonable price.
(2025-04-08) the new update sucks
(2025-04-04) Many useful function and AI models to select. Need improve the UI/UX to smother and make the current function like searching and project to be excellent. The browser extension needs to be care now, a lot of bugs, lagging. And nothing else to be complain.
(2025-04-02) The context menu in Chrome is quite limited; it needs quick actions like summarizing, rewriting, translating, asking questions based on selected text, explaining.
(2025-04-01) This platform assists me with so many things from its wide variety of different kinds of AI tools and I am amazed how accessible it is as an extension tool. It's incredible!
(2025-03-31) Best AI assistant for working, knowledge and ideas development. Amazing!
(2025-03-31) it works really bad, at every level
(2025-03-28) Merlin AI has been my go to whenever I need help with school work. There are many features to choose from and has helped me plenty. Amazing!
(2025-03-28) I've been using the Merlin AI Chrome Extension, and it has transformed the way I work. Whether I need instant summaries, AI-generated responses, or help drafting content, Merlin AI integrates seamlessly into my browsing experience.
(2025-03-28) Recover Streak -73h
(2025-03-17) Recent update broke the sign-in feature, just takes me to the 'extension-installed' page. Now it is unusable :(
(2025-03-12) Its good, but I almost wished it did a bit less -> felt overwhelmed by the constant surfacing. Opted for GOAT AI Summarizer for now
(2025-03-03) Fricking amazing
(2025-03-02) A very convenient and useful tool that increases individual productivity. However, the list of models in the Chrome extension does not match the list in the Merlin's Mobile and Web applications. Currently, the extension's models list contains 6 models that are considered archived in the Merlin Mobile application. Moreover, the list of models does not include such current models as O1, O3 mini, Deep Seek, and Gemini 2.0. Please update the Chrome extension's models list. UPDATE: a new UI of Chrome extension is here and it's pretty fine, but hey, where is the most important feature of Merlin AI - Chat with Web page?
(2025-02-24) Every time I turn off Merlin appearing in Google search, it gets turned on again.
(2025-02-23) I have been using this for many days, everywhere it works fine but on reddit it doesn't.
(2025-02-23) Great deal, possibly the most responsive team in AI. My experience has been wonderful. One of my favorite productivity tools in a long time.
(2025-02-12) Great deal, possibly the most responsive team in AI, improving quickly. It's hard to change your habits, but the way things are going, it'll be my go-to within a month or two, and for less.
(2025-02-10) kept prompting me for payments, but since there was no trial option for the main features, I decided to switch to TinaMind, where all the advanced features are available at an affordable price.
(2025-02-06) It gets updated very frequently. Customer help is reasonable and responsive. The AI models are top-notch and get added to Merlin as soon as they're out. My experience has been wonderful. One of my favorite productivity tools in a long time.
(2025-02-06) I use it everyday
(2025-01-23) Overall Merlin is best. The only issue it has is when I use it on my M3 Mac and do a google search, it increases the CPU usage by 20-30% and starts heating. The moment, I close the tab with google search, it stops consuming high resources.
(2025-01-19) Waste of time and money with useless responses. Questioning disgusting and even dangerous hallucinations counts as queries and uses up credits (15 points in one go in the extension). Payment spam is littered all over the UI with confusingly different pricing everywhere. YouTube summary is lame compared to Google's free NotebookLM. Unable to summarise pdf, which NotebookLM does perfectly. Not someone I would trust with my payment details. I have wasted a bit of time to find the option to unsubscribe and have all my date deleted, but it seems such an option doesn't exist. Developer, please respond.
(2025-01-18) This Ai App is very straightforward and very useful. And fast.
(2025-01-17) just another user info scam
(2025-01-13) It's excellent but doesn't support Traditional Chinese typing very well. Hope this would get fixed
(2025-01-05) Its too invasive and doesn't work a lot of times. Also can't get it to work on PDFs sometimes. GOAT AI summarizer is my goto for a reliable and high quality summarizer, and it works everywhere too.
(2024-12-29) When the Chrome Extension is Active, ChatGPT login page cannot be authorized and load. Not sure among all my 20 extensions, only Merlin causes this issue. It took me days to find out that this was the cause. Deleting this real time. Seriously hate it!
(2024-12-15) I just got their Pro tier and happy with it so far. Only complaint is the extension and the web get logged out too quickly. so cumbersome to always re log in. Please help to make login remains longer.
(2024-12-11) A good tool but can you add scientific research specific AI tools similar to other tools such as consensus, elicit, afforai!
(2024-12-08) Loved that I can switch agents easily when the output by one model is not satisfactory
(2024-12-03) Stopped working in linked in now. Very sad. It has started working now after re-installing. Thanks for the response.
(2024-11-28) Was working great but the latest update appears to have broken its ability to summarize Youtube videos. Every time I click "Generate Summary" I get an error saying "Something went wrong: Request failed with status code 400". I've already tried reinstalling and restarting.
(2024-11-26) this extension is garbage, made of pure capitalism greed, i thought I'd have a nice lil companion called merlin turns out it behaves almost exactly as spyware all it wants is that sweet sweet data and cash, the ai does NOT function if you don't sign in which is already a really big red flag like why can it not function it's literally almost 2025 and it can NOT function without you logging in?!! they want to collect data from users and i know this is how they make their ai learn stuff but I'd love a lil headline first or maybe an option to limit the data you guys receive, i also used this on my alternative email and they keep sending me stuff on it, lmao literally a spyware also the ai itself is not that good i could just type "reddit" after my question and find more stuff than what the "smart" ai gives me or maybe it's a capitalism tactic to force me to pay for premium? anyway don't trust them tldr: overall mid, and really untrustworthy and UNworthy of a single star I'd give them a negative one if i could lost respect to this corporate ahh company
(2024-11-25) This extension is very useful, but kept prompting me to make payments, but since there was no trial for the main features, I switched to TinaMind, where all the advanced features are accessible.
(2024-11-24) Not Generating replies for LInkedIn Post. Not Working with LInkedIn
(2024-11-24) Your extension in not working on Linkedin
(2024-11-24) Unfortunately, the extension isn't functioning on LinkedIn, even after updating the CRX file. Hoping for a quick resolution to this issue.
(2024-11-23) Your extension in not working on Linkedin
(2024-11-15) I have been using this extension for over a year now, and I can confidently say it's one of the best extensions available. It offers everything you need; just click to get YouTube insights instantly. You can visit the webpage, click to chat, and ask how to improve it. I've discovered many ways to utilize this extension, which largely depends on your creativity. It has really helped me with captions, titles, blog posts, LinkedIn posts, tweets—everything! It takes some time to learn, but once you get the hang of it, you’re good to go. That’s why I’m here after a year of use. Initially, I used my own API keys, but I found it much better to subscribe. When there was a sale, I grabbed it for a year at a very low price, and now I’m looking forward to Black Friday.
(2024-11-14) hi friend i do not have information about this application pleas give me any information thank you I DO'T NNNNNNN WHAT I CAN ?
(2024-11-13) Top quality AI
(2024-10-31) Needed a research tool, but felt overwhelmed. Decided to go with GOAT Summarizer for now.
