About Monica

Monica is an all-in-one AI assistant best known as a browser extension for Chrome and Edge. Press a shortcut on any web page to open a sidebar where you can chat with models from OpenAI, Anthropic, Google and others, summarise the page or a YouTube video, translate, or rewrite selected text. It also adds AI answers next to search results and helps draft email replies. Beyond the extension there are web, Windows, Mac, iPhone and Android apps that share your history, plus image generation, PDF chat, a no-code bot builder and Monica Code for VS Code and JetBrains. Free users get a daily usage limit; paid plans raise limits and unlock more advanced models. Monica is made by Butterfly Effect Pte. Ltd. in Singapore.

Best for: People who want several AI models available on any web page without switching tabs.
