ChatGPT is still making headlines for bulldozing in a tech revolution. Not all of them are good, but like all powerful technologies, it’s the user and their motive that matters most.
Interestingly, ChatGPT is just a front-end user interface for GPT. It’s the most well-known use-case for GPT-3 technology, but as the code is open source, there are dozens of other tools and Chrome extensions that use GPT to make your online life easier.
Let’s have a look at the best ones, shall we?
9 of the Best ChatGPT and GPT-3 Chrome Extensions
1. ChatGPT for Google: Search Like a Boss
Why not combine your online search methods? While Google released their own “ChatGPT-killer”, Bard, to a largely underwhelmed audience, you can actually integrate ChatGPT directly with Google and other search engines.
This powerful AI Chrome extension has ChatGPT answer your query to the right-hand side of the screen while the regular search results still show up as normal. This is especially good for queries that refer to more recent information as ChatGPT has a limited knowledge of events that occurred after 2021.
As ChatGPT is a natural language processor, it can often tell you exactly what you need to know, even more than Google’s Featured Snippets. It will boil down to the crux of your search and potentially prevent you from having to try and scan two or three different websites.
Despite the Google-oriented name, ChatGPT for Google actually works for the majority of popular search engines.
2. ChatGPT Writer: Respond to Emails With AI
Let’s face the facts here. Nobody likes to respond to emails. Depending on who you’re writing to, you may have to adopt a formal or professional tone which you may end up overthinking. Basically, they can be a nightmare.
Enter ChatGPT Writer, the awesome GPT-3 Chrome extension that automates responses to your emails in seconds. Just tell it what you want to say with a simple sentence command, and it’ll write and format a full-length email as if it were no big deal.
Check out the example in the video above to revel in all its beauty. Not only is it coherent and professional, but it’s a lot more fluid than some of the drivel we send and receive on a daily basis.
3. tl;dv: Totally Transform Online Meetings
Most of the ChatGPT Chrome extensions on this list are simply a rehashed ChatGPT in a different environment. tl;dv has a bit more pizazz. It’s a virtual meeting recorder in its own right, allowing you to record, transcribe and create highlights from your video calls. But it’s also integrated with GPT to provide some pretty nifty benefits.
For example, its AI-powered speaker recognition can identify who’s speaking in the recording and provide accurate transcripts in more than 20 languages – instantly. GPT also provides a summary at the end of each video call, informing you of all the important topics discussed and the action points (if it was a professional meeting). You’ll never be able to attend a meeting the same way again.

With all its primary features completely free, tl;dv is a GPT-3 Chrome extension that you’ll want to try out sooner rather than later.
4. ChatGPT Prompt Genius: Upgrade Your Prompt Game
If you’ve used ChatGPT on more than one occasion you may have noticed that it completely forgets who you are whenever you start a new conversation. So much for intelligence, right? Basically, if you’ve had any chats about a specific topic with ChatGPT, when you bring up the topic again, it’s as if the bot has no clue what you’re talking about. It won’t remember your previous conversations, and definitely not any specific details, whether they be about your business, your competitors, or the color of your underwear.
ChatGPT Prompt Genius intends to solve that problem. While it’s not the most polished of GPT extensions, it provides somewhat of a workaround so that you can continue your conversation where you left off. This is a game changer because you can train GPT with information, be it strategies, data, or statistics, but as soon as you close it, you’ll have to retrain it next time.
Described by one reviewer as the ChatGPT Swiss army knife, Prompt Genius is a developing project that’s worth a watch.
5. YouTube Summary with ChatGPT: Save Time with Summaries
While some Youtubers opt to include a transcript on their videos, not all do. And as a watcher, there’s absolutely nothing you can do about it. We’re not talking about the broken-ass captions here, either. We’re talking full-on transcript so that you can have a quick skim and determine whether or not the video is worth watching.
If you’re someone who does this, or never knew it existed but will try it now, then YouTube Summary with ChatGPT is for you. It does exactly what it says on the tin: creates a short summary for you to scan over and see if the video is worth your time.
Once installed, the right sidebar will have a box for “Transcript & Summary”. When you click it, you’ll get a time-stamped transcript generated by ChatGPT. Simply click the timestamp and you’ll get taken straight to the part that interests you.
There are summary options too so you can get a quick breakdown of the entire thing. You can even put forward further prompts to ChatGPT about the video and they will respond with full knowledge of what happens in it. It won’t be long now before ChatGPT is writing the scripts for us…

6. Engage AI: Comment Without the Hassle
With only positive reviews, Engage AI allows you to use ChatGPT as your personal assistant to respond to comments on LinkedIn. Whether you’re a brand, influencer, or industry specialist, Engage AI will help you respond to more comments in less time.
You won’t be getting the age-old “great post!” type of crap either. Engage AI makes it well-known that their intention is to make quality comments that are:
- Memorable
- Authentic
- Insightful
- Relevant
There’s just three things you need to do: set the tone of voice (friendly, funny, disagreeable, congratulatory, or inquisitive), refresh or personalize it to match your brand voice, and then send. Simple.
7. Superpower ChatGPT: Prompt Mania
Superpower ChatGPT builds upon ChatGPT to offer dozens more features, but the most useful of the bunch is the preset templates for prompts. These prompts are all editable so you can personalize them to your needs, but they’re tested to get the exact information you need, making your life a helluva lot easier.
Superpower ChatGPT can also get a little funky.
You can get GPT to act as your favorite TV character. They’ll write with their tone and use any catchphrases they might have. You can even get ChatGPT to act as a hypnotherapist, doctor, or career advisor.
There’s even a prompt to make ChatGPT act like a comedian. Though we warn you; their jokes are not quite up to scratch yet.

8. Talk-to-ChatGPT: Give AI the Power of Voice
A fairly simple idea, Talk-to-ChatGPT allows you to vocalize your prompts and gives ChatGPT a voice to respond back to you. It’s one of those automatically generated robot voices like you hear with Google Translate, but it does the job well enough.
Having no voice was a serious limitation of ChatGPT, especially for the visually impaired. But that problem disappears as soon as you install this extension. It’ll still read its reply out loud even if you type your query.
9. ReaderGPT: Summarize the Web
ReaderGPT uses ChatGPT to create summaries of any webpage you visit. Reached a blog that’ll take you two minutes just to scroll to the bottom? ReaderGPT will summarize it for you so you can skip to the interesting parts for more depth. Like with the YouTube GPT-3 extension above, you can also prompt GPT more to get more information about the article.
There are a few different options for how you want your summary, too. You can get it in bullet points, a tight-knit paragraph, or super simple English. As the summaries are generated inside ChatGPT’s usual interface, you can refresh to get a new summary of the same page, or you can ask for more info about specific parts.
Explore Free AI Chrome Extensions
While these are our top 9 ChatGPT Chrome extensions, there are plenty of others out there too. ChatGPT is free and open source, meaning anybody can develop extensions that use the same core technology. This will open the door to startling new innovations so keep your eyes on this space.
