About AI Osmosis

Turn your daily browsing habits into a powerful language learning tool. AI Osmosis passively translates snippets of the websites you visit (like Reddit, YouTube, Wikipedia, or News sites) into your target language. Instead of spending hours on flashcards, you learn vocabulary and sentence structure in context, absorbing the language naturally—just like osmosis. ✨ Key Features: 🧠 Choose Your Brain: Connect to Local Ollama for complete privacy (free), or use premium cloud models like OpenAI (GPT-4), Google Gemini, or Anthropic Claude for high-quality translations. 📉 Smart Immersion: You control the intensity. Translate just 10% of words to dip your toes in, or crank it up to 50% for a challenge. 🗣️ Native Pronunciation: Click any translated text to hear it spoken aloud. (Includes a smart cloud fallback for Linux users without system speech drivers). 🔀 Two Learning Modes: Word Mode: Swaps individual words inline. Example: "The (gato) sat on the mat." Sentence Mode: Translates full phrases and displays them below the original text for deeper grammatical understanding. 🚫 Total Control: Easily blacklist specific sites (like banking or code documentation) where you don't want translations to appear. 🔒 Privacy First: By default, AI Osmosis is configured to use Local AI (Ollama). This means your browsing data is processed entirely on your own computer and never sent to the cloud. If you choose to use Cloud APIs, data is sent directly from your browser to the provider—we never see, store, or sell your data.
