xplain: explain anything on the screen

Select text or box anything on a web page (an equation, a figure, code) and watch xplain explain it, out loud, on a whiteboard.

Stuck on an equation in a paper, a chart in an article, or a piece of code? Select it, or draw a box around it, and xplain explains it to you out loud while it draws on a whiteboard, like a teacher. Then ask your own questions, by typing or by speaking. How to use it: - Select text, right-click, and choose "Explain with xplain". - Or click the xplain button (or press Alt+Shift+X) and drag a box around anything on the page: an equation, a figure, a table, code, even a video frame. - xplain opens in a new tab with what you chose. Press "Explain it", or ask your own question about it. Works on any website: Wikipedia, arXiv, online courses, documentation, blogs. On pages the extension cannot draw on (such as Chrome's own PDF viewer) it sends the whole screen, and you box the part you want in xplain. The extension only reads a page when you click it, and only what you selected or boxed. You need an xplain account to get explanations. **Website:** https://xplain.to **Support / contact:** hello@xplain.to
