How It Works

1. The extension extracts content from webpages you visit.
2. It uses Ollama's local AI models to process and understand the content.
3. All processing happens locally on your machine for privacy.

Troubleshooting

• Extension not connecting to Ollama: Make sure Ollama is running on your computer and the host URL is correctly set in the extension settings.
• AI responses are slow: Try using a smaller model in the settings.
• Form filling not working: Some websites use complex JavaScript forms that may not be fully compatible with the form filling feature.
• Thinking Mode not updating: Ensure the extension is properly communicating with Ollama and that the AI model supports streaming responses.

Privacy

All processing is done locally on your machine. Your data doesn't leave your computer as Ollama runs locally.
