The page stays open. The answer appears beside it.

Understand any webpage without leaving it.

Summarize the page you are reading and keep asking, in a browser side panel. Connect a local model to keep everything on your device, or start right away — built-in AI works after install, with no signup and no API key.

PageGrok selecting one webpage content region and answering a question in the browser side panel

One side panel, three everyday wins

01

Summarize long pages

Get the argument, evidence and conclusion in one pass, then ask follow-ups.

02

Work through dense docs

Isolate one topic from navigation, tables, code and surrounding detail.

03

Understand other languages

Explain terms and meaning while the source stays visible.

Browser-native context

If you can see the text in your tab, PageGrok can read it.

PageGrok reads text already rendered in the active tab—including content shown after you sign in and pages assembled dynamically in the browser. It does not send the URL to a remote crawler and ask the website for the page again.

01

PageGrok · reads the open tab

Uses the page state and rendered text already available to you.

02

Link readers · fetch the URL again

May stop at sign-in walls, anti-bot checks, or client-side rendering.

PageGrok reads what is already on your screen. There are no credentials to hand over and no crawler fetching pages on your behalf.

How it works

Turn the page into a source you can question.

No copy-and-paste detour. PageGrok keeps the source and the conversation together.

01

Open any webpage

Read an article, paper, guide or documentation as usual.

Article · paper · documentation
02

Focus one topic region

On a dense page, enter clip mode and click the one meaningful section you need—like a web clipper, not text selection.

1 topic region selected · Confirm
03

Ask in the side panel

Get an answer grounded in that region, then keep asking without losing context.

What is the core idea here?

Choose your AI

Start instantly, or run completely local.

Install the extension, open any page, and ask. Built-in AI handles the request so you can start reading the answer, not configuring a server. If you already run a local model, PageGrok connects to that too.

A / Easiest · no setup

Built-in AI, fast and efficient

Install and start asking. PageGrok provides the model, so there is no server or API key to configure.

Ask straight away — the free trial needs no signup and no card. Content is sent to PageGrok's AI service to generate the answer; the server stores none of it and never trains on it.

B / Private · fully local

Connect Ollama, LM Studio or oMLX

Use a model already running on your computer. Page content stays between the browser and your local model.

Local providers and your own OpenAI-compatible API key remain free to use.

Compare plans and data handling

Data handling

Each AI mode has a defined data path.

PageGrok processes page content only after you ask it to parse or answer. Built-in AI sends the content needed for the request through PageGrok's API to PageGrok's AI service; local AI keeps processing between the browser and your local model.

Use cases

Useful wherever the page is the source.

PageGrok is strongest when you need to inspect the original while you think.

01

Technical documentation

Focus on a code sample and its surrounding explanation.

What assumption does this API example make?
02

Long-form analysis

Trace the claim, supporting evidence and missing context.

Which evidence actually supports the conclusion?
03

Foreign-language content

Clarify terminology without replacing the source page.

Explain this term in the context of the paragraph.

Go deeper

Once it fits, take it further.

Three ways in: find a tool for the reading you actually do, see PageGrok next to the extensions you already know, or read how browser AI works before you install anything.

Questions

The things worth knowing before you install.

01Can PageGrok summarize a whole webpage?

Yes. Open the side panel on any page and ask for a summary of the full page, or clip one region and summarize only that part. Built-in AI answers right after install, with no signup, no API key and no local model required.

02Do I need to install Ollama to use PageGrok?

Built-in AI is the default and works the moment you install — nothing to download, no server to start, no API key to paste. Ollama, LM Studio and oMLX are optional, for when you want processing to stay on your own device. PageGrok finds a local model that is already running and handles the connection for you, so there are no system settings to change.

03Does PageGrok read every page automatically?

It reads nothing until you ask. Content is extracted only when you tell it to parse the page or enter region-selection mode, so ordinary browsing stays untouched.

04Can PageGrok read pages behind a login?

Yes, when you are already signed in and the content is rendered as text in the active tab. PageGrok reads the open page instead of asking a remote crawler to fetch its URL. It does not bypass access controls — it reads what your browser has already rendered.

05What is the difference between built-in and local AI?

Built-in AI works immediately and sends the chosen page content to PageGrok's AI service. Local AI uses Ollama, LM Studio or oMLX on your device, so content stays local.

06Is the extension free?

Installing PageGrok is free. Local models and your own API key remain free. Built-in AI includes a free trial and then uses an optional paid pass.

07Which browsers are supported?

Google Chrome and Chromium-based browsers that support the Side Panel API, including Edge, Brave and Arc.

08How long does an answer take, and do I have to wait for the whole page?

Answers stream in as they are generated, so reading starts before the model finishes. On a long or cluttered page you can clip only the regions you care about — one or several at once — and ask about those, so nothing is spent on navigation, ads or sections you do not need. When you use a local model, Settings also has a Preload model option that keeps it in memory so so it answers as soon as you ask.

09Which models and endpoints can I connect?

Built-in AI needs no configuration at all. Beyond that, PageGrok connects to Ollama and LM Studio on your own machine, to oMLX on Apple Silicon, and to any OpenAI-compatible endpoint with your own API key, including a self-hosted gateway. The model list is read from the provider at run time, so whatever you have pulled or loaded appears in the selector.

The next difficult page is one question away.

Install PageGrok, open the side panel, and ask without moving the source into another app.
