- (2025-02-12) Andrew Clark: Very helpful extension! I've been using it for a while now and it is super handy on all sorts of web pages. The main thing I use it for is quickly summarizing articles, or just "getting the gist" of a webpage. There are some other features I would like to see but overall a very helpful browser buddy - thanks helpful!
- (2025-02-09) K Kitchen: A easy web AI assistant for browsing. I've been using Helpful for a little while now, and it’s definitely made reading and researching online much easier. The AI summaries are great for quickly understanding long articles, and the ability to ask custom questions is great when I need specific insights. Pros: ✅ Fast and accurate page summaries ✅ Helpful citation generator for research ✅ Easy-to-use and blends seamlessly into Chrome ✅ Saves time by highlighting key information Cons: ❌ Occasionally, the AI summaries miss nuanced details ❌ Would love to see support for more browsers beyond Chrome Overall, Helpful is a solid and easy to use AI tool for anyone who spends a lot of time reading online. I'm still learning about its capabilities, but it definitely makes browsing more efficient. Worth trying if you want to cut through information overload.
