FAQ

Why is the extension asking for access to all websites permission?

The extension requires access to all websites because there is no backend server to process web requests, and everything happens locally in the browser. There are two modes: web searching, and extracting webpage text from URLs. Web searching requires access to the search engine, while URL text extraction requires access to any website. This is why the access to all websites permission is required.

The extension does not work, the toolbar does not show up. What can I do?

Some other ChatGPT extensions are known to interfere with WebChatGPT. If you are experiencing issues with the toolbar not showing up, please try disabling any other ChatGPT extensions that you have installed and reloading the page. If you continue to experience issues, feel free to reach out to us on our Discord server for assistance.

Do you collect any data?

No, the extension does not collect any user data or analytics.
