Chippy

What Exactly is Chippy?

Chippy is a handy browser extension that lets you bring the power of ChatGPT right along with you as you browse the web. Imagine having AI assistance for tasks like summarizing articles, doing quick research, translating text, or getting answers to your questions, all without needing to jump between different tabs. It’s a free tool, and it gives you twenty free GPT-3.5 queries every day. If you want to use GPT-4, you can simply provide your own OpenAI API key. For your privacy, all your conversations and your API key are stored right there in your browser, and you can delete them whenever you like. Chippy doesn’t keep tabs on your browsing history, and you don’t even need an account to start using it. It works with Google Chrome and other browsers built on Chromium.
