What is Readpal?

ReadPal is an AI assistant for reading, researching, and shopping online, available as a Chrome extension. It provides instant explanations, quick summaries, recommendations, and deeper insights into whatever you’re viewing. You can trigger it with keyboard shortcuts, right-click context menus, or one-click prompts, and it works with Google Docs, PDFs, and web pages (YouTube support is planned).

Privacy is a stated priority: the company doesn’t store personal data beyond what’s needed for sign-in and usage stats, queries sent to AI model providers are anonymized, and chat history stays in your browser. ReadPal can switch between different AI models depending on the task and plans to train its own models in the future.

The extension currently supports Chrome only, though other browsers are being considered. It’s available from the Chrome Web Store, and you can try it with 20 free queries — no credit card required.
