Extension Usage Instructions

Essentially, a browser "research" co-pilot. Reading an academic paper? Planning your next vacation? Analyzing a business or a company? Sifting through webpages looking for information, manually copying it elsewhere?

Check out Essence, the ultimate tool for interactive summarization and note-taking using advanced AI models. Core features:

💡 Process any webpage into a structured summary in one of our processing styles (Travel, Business Analytics, Scientific Papers, Generic, Bullet Points, Explain and Table). No need to settle for only generic summaries.
💡 Ask questions about the page!
💡 Export everything to spreadsheets or Notion.

Other features:
⚙ Process highlighted text.
⚙ Supporting PDF formats.
⚙ Mini ChatGPT built-in: start your questions with "/chat" and it will act as a chat bot with no regard to the current page (but with regard to previous questions).
⚙ Supporting offline files: make sure to allow offline files through "Manage Extension".
⚙ Save session to custom dividers in-app.
⚙ Edit the summaries, adding your own notes.
⚙ Auto-open and auto-process pages.
⚙ Summarize Twitter threads (on original author's tweet).
⚙ Youtube summaries

We cache only public pages with no personal information, i.e. ones which were accessed directly by the server, not from the user-side. See also essence.fyi/privacy
