Merlin AI

Paste in a long blog post or open a YouTube video, click once, and Merlin AI gives you the key points without leaving the tab.

Merlin AI is an AI assistant that runs as a Chrome extension and a web app, built for researching, writing and summarizing content.

It works with several models, including GPT-4, GPT-4o and Claude, so you pick the one you like instead of being stuck with a single chatbot.

The extension can put AI answers next to Google Search results and summarize web pages, documents and social media posts.

Merlin also translates text, drafts written content, generates code and creates images.

The extension is the main draw if you juggle many tabs and want answers without switching apps.
