Sider

What is Sider?

Sider is a browser sidebar that puts more than twenty AI models one click away on any page. Chrome and Edge users can ask questions, translate text, summarise long articles, or draft replies without leaving the tab they are already reading. Over six million people use it daily.

Top Features:

• Multi model chat: switch between GPT, Claude, Gemini, and Grok in one panel.
• Page reading: summarise articles, reports, and PDFs without copying text anywhere else.
• Context aware translation: handle idioms and technical terms across fifty plus languages.

Use Cases:

• Research reading: pull key points from dense papers before deciding what deserves attention.
• Inbox work: draft and polish replies inside Gmail without switching to another tool.
• Answer comparison: run the same question past several models and pick the best.
