How to Set Up AI Features (5 AI Extensions)

Some extensions use AI to summarize, analyze, or generate text. They need an AI service to work. You enter your own API key in each extension's Settings page. Your keys are stored locally on your device — never sent to us.

FREE Options (No Credit Card)

Ollama — 100% Free, 100% Private

More Providers: Mistral, DeepSeek, Together, Cohere, LM Studio

All available in each extension's Settings. Same process: get API key from the provider's website, paste in Settings.

  • Mistral AI — European AI, good quality
  • DeepSeek — Very affordable
  • Together AI — Open source models
  • Cohere — Enterprise AI
  • LM Studio — Like Ollama, runs locally at localhost:1234

My Recommendation

Start with Groq — it's free, fast, and takes 30 seconds to set up. If you want 100% privacy, install Ollama. For the best quality, use OpenAI or Anthropic.
