The open-source browser AI agent: ask about any page, extract data — and, uniquely, transcribe video.
An AI workbench in your sidebar: reads the page, answers questions, structures data into tables — and transcribes video to a transcript in one line, unique among open-source peers. Local-first, your keys, no telemetry.

autohand-ext).chrome://extensions.Chrome / Edge only (requires the File System Access API).
Open any page and talk in the sidebar — read, answer, transform, store. All local-first.
Answers grounded in the live page: summarize long articles, explain content, compare options. Reads first, never makes things up.
Structure page content into tables (CSV download) and markdown notes — searchable and reusable.
Open a video page and say "transcribe this video": local audio extraction, resumable ASR, timestamped markdown transcript.
Export the whole page as markdown (images localized); data, transcripts, and notes live in one searchable Data tab.
