Quick Ask for ChatGPT

Explain, translate, or ask about selected ChatGPT text in a compact panel using your signed-in web account.

Get a quick explanation without adding another message to your main ChatGPT conversation. Quick Ask lets you select a word, phrase, or passage in a ChatGPT response and ask a small question in a compact floating panel. Keep reading while a separate ChatGPT helper tab handles the question. FEATURES • Explain a term or passage in plain language. • Translate selected text or ask for a concrete example. • Type a custom question about your selection. • Read the answer as it appears, then minimize, move, copy, or close the panel. • Keep each question separate from the original conversation. LANGUAGE The interface is in English. Answers are requested in the language of the surrounding ChatGPT response, unless your question specifies another language. HOW IT WORKS Sign in to chatgpt.com in Chrome, open a conversation, and select text within one assistant response. Choose Explain this or Ask… to begin. No API key is needed. Quick Ask uses your signed-in ChatGPT website session and the website’s default model. DATA AND ACCOUNT USAGE A separate helper tab submits your selection, your question, and up to 1,200 characters from the selected response as a language reference to ChatGPT. The extension does not use a developer-operated server, read cookies, or extract login tokens. Normal ChatGPT usage limits and data settings apply. Questions may create separate chats in your ChatGPT history. Closing the panel closes its helper tab; it does not delete chat history. EXPERIMENTAL RELEASE This prototype depends on the ChatGPT website layout. Site changes, background-tab throttling, sign-in prompts, verification, or usage limits may interrupt it. Live-site compatibility has not yet been fully verified. The extension does not bypass these restrictions. Independent, unofficial project. Not affiliated with or endorsed by OpenAI.
