Choosing ai browser extensions
Do AI extensions see everything I browse?+
Most read only the active tab when invoked, but permissions vary. Review the extension's permission list and privacy policy before installing.
Which is better, an extension or a full assistant app?+
Extensions win for in-page tasks; full apps win for long work, files, and memory. Many people use both.
