Hey Product Hunt!
I'm so excited to finally share Glimpse with you all!
I built Glimpse to be the AI browser assistant I always wanted: powerful, context-aware, and completely private. It's designed from the ground up for the Firefox and Zen Browser ecosystems, creating a tool that seamlessly integrates with your workflow, whether you're researching, learning, or creating.
What makes Glimpse different?
📺 YouTube Transcript Analysis: Instantly pull up and ask questions about the transcript of any YouTube video. It's a game-changer for lectures, tutorials, and podcasts.
🌐 Real-Time Web Knowledge: Glimpse supports Google Search grounding for Gemini, so you get up-to-date answers with inline citations. Know exactly where your information is coming from.
🧠 Your Choice of AI: Don't get locked in. Connect your own API keys for Gemini or OpenRouter to access a massive range of models.
🔐 100% Private: This was non-negotiable for me. All your data, chat history, and API keys are stored locally in your browser. There is zero tracking or analytics. What you do with Glimpse stays on your machine.
📄 Context is King: Automatically attach your active tab's content, capture a screenshot, upload files, or even @mention other open tabs to bring them into the conversation.
It also includes features like a built-in interactive tutorial to get you started, chat history, and a personalization profile to get more tailored responses.
Glimpse is built specifically for Firefox-based browsers and is available now from the Firefox Add-ons store.
I'll be here all day to answer your questions and listen to your feedback. Let me know what you think!
Cheers!
