About the startup

Reading dense papers in a second language means constantly tab-switching to Google. Select & Explain fixes that: highlight any term, press Alt+E, and get a context-aware explanation right next to it — it reads the surrounding paragraph, so you get what the term means in THIS paper. Unlike other AI extensions: 100% local & private (your key, your browser, zero servers), answers in any language, and a one-time $5 with your own API key — no subscription.
