Chrome AI Summarize

AI Summarizer API. Summaries are generated locally in the browser—no data is sent
to external servers.

  • Browser: Google Chrome 138+ (Dev/Canary channel)
  • Chrome Flag: Enable
    chrome://flags/#optimization-guide-on-device-model
    (set to "Enabled BypassPerfRequirement")

Enabling Chrome AI

  1. Navigate to chrome://flags/#optimization-guide-on-device-model
  2. Set to "Enabled BypassPerfRequirement"
  3. Restart Chrome
  4. AI model (~1.5GB) downloads automatically on first use

Usage

  1. Place the "Chrome AI Summarize" block via Structure > Block layout
  2. Visit any page with the block
  3. Click "Summarize This Page"
  4. View the AI-generated summary in real-time

The block automatically hides in unsupported browsers.

Features
