BranchAI – GPT & AI Inline Chat Extension

Branch AI – Ask AI Anywhere Branch AI is a Chrome extension that makes AI available right where you need it — directly inside your browser.

Switch seamlessly between them based on your needs. 📊 Usage Tracking – Monitor API usage across keys. 🚦 Limit Management – Set usage limits to keep costs under control. 🧩 Customizable – Adjust chat box placement and sizing to your preference. 🔒 Privacy First – Your API keys are stored locally in Chrome and never shared externally. Getting Started 1- Install the extension. 2- Click BranchAI from the Extensions tab in your browser. 3- Click Configure API Settings. 4- Add one or more LLM API keys in the settings. 5- Highlight text and click the icon to open the popup and start chatting. 6- Track usage and set limits from the dashboard. Why Branch AI? Unlike other AI chat tools that lock you into a single flow or require switching to a separate app, Branch AI lets you create follow-up threads, side chats, and inline questions without breaking your browsing experience. We built it to solve a simple frustration: when exploring ideas with AI, one answer often sparks multiple follow-up questions — but traditional chat tools make you open a new tab or lose your context. With Branch AI, you can instantly branch off, get summaries, translations, or side explorations directly in your browser, keeping your workflow smooth and uninterrupted. Getting an API Key If you don’t have an API key yet, don’t worry — it only takes a minute to create one.
