In the evolving world of web browsing, Chrome Extensions have transformed our digital activities, making them more productive, engaging, and personalized. Our Chrome Extension is designed to leap into action as you select text on any web page, offering the capability to interact with multiple AI models in real-time.

Imagine reading an article and stumbling upon a complex paragraph or terminology that piqued your curiosity. With our extension, all you have to do is select the text. Instantly, a sleek interface pops up, inviting you to explore this selected text through various AI lenses. This doesn’t just add a layer of interactivity but enhances understanding, engagement, and retention of information.

How It Works

Installing and using the extension is a straightforward process. Once added to Chrome, it works seamlessly in the background, activating whenever text is highlighted. The pop-up interface that appears upon text selection is the gateway to the extensive capabilities of the extension. The user can choose an AI model within the extension, each option being a different AI model that can generate insights, summaries, sentiment analysis, or even answer questions based on the selected text.

Below is a demo usage of the extension illustrated:

Step 1: select any text while browsing
Step 2: ask AI what you want to do with the selected text

The Core Functionality

At its core, the Chrome Extension is designed to be intuitive. When a user selects a portion of text on a webpage, whether it’s a sentence, a paragraph, or a larger block of text, a sleek pop-up appears, presenting various AI-powered options. The user can choose from multiple models, each specialized in a different type of analysis or task. This approach not only democratizes access to advanced AI tools but also saves significant time and effort that would otherwise be spent in manual analysis or switching between various applications and websites.

For example, if a user highlights a news article and selects the “summary” model, the AI quickly ingests the text and provides a concise summary. This functionality is especially useful for those who need to process large volumes of information and require rapid assimilation of key points.

Or as another example, by posing questions related to the selected text, users can receive direct answers generated by AI. This model parses the context and content deeply to provide accurate and context-aware responses, similar to interacting with a sophisticated virtual assistant.

Release Date and Pricing

We have successfully submitted the extension in Chrome’s Web Store and Google has reviewed and verified it and it’s ready to be published — any time before the end of May. Soon, we shall announce the release date, possibly next week.

The extension will be free of use for everyone, till we fine-tune it and add more models and features. Once we release a second version, it will be only available to $DEUS token holders. The process of checking for being a holder is done though our DApp which will be announced in the near future as well. You can read more info about this in our documentations at https://docs.deuslab.org

User Experience and Design

Ease of use is paramount, and the design of the extension reflects this philosophy. The interface is minimalistic and non-intrusive, designed to provide a smooth flow. The current design is using an animated-colored background which moves smoothly and gives a good feeling while working with it. It also scrolls automatically once you click anywhere on it. According to users feedbacks, we will fine tune the design in future (next versions).

Future Prospects

As AI continues to evolve, so will this extension. Future updates may include more sophisticated models with capabilities like real-time multi-language support, deeper contextual understanding, and integration with other productivity tools. Moreover, as user feedback is gathered, the development will focus on enhancing the user experience and expanding the types of AI models available.

We are continuously working on future version of the extension and once a new version is released, we will announce it through our social medias, so be sure to have us followed for future updates.

Privacy and Security

Understanding the sensitivity around data, especially when dealing with personal or proprietary information, the extension is designed with robust privacy protocols. None of the selected text leaves the user’s browser without their consent, and all AI model interactions are secured using end-to-end encryption. This ensures that confidential information remains protected, and user privacy is upheld.

It’s worth to mention that Chrome Web Store checks all the extensions before publishing them. This means Deus Lab’s extension is also verified by Google.

Conclusion

Our Chrome Extension represents a significant forward leap in how we interact with text on the web. By harnessing multiple AI models through a single, user-friendly interface, it offers a powerful toolkit for anyone looking to enhance their digital interactions with text. As technology advances and AI becomes even more integrated into our daily tools, extensions like these not only prepare us for the future but actively shape it, making our interactions with digital content smarter, faster, and more productive.
