What is MaxAI?
MaxAI is an AI assistant available through Chrome and Edge extensions and a web app. It helps users work with online content without repeatedly moving between a webpage and a separate AI service. Users can ask questions about webpages, PDFs, YouTube videos, images, files, and other supported sources.
The service brings several AI models into one interface, including models from OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, xAI, Meta, and DeepSeek. Its tools cover chat, web search, writing support, translation, summarization, document analysis, and image generation. The browser extension can operate alongside websites where users read, write, communicate, or conduct research.
