Private AI reader for Chrome
A private AI reader that stays beside you.
Skimlane processes pages as you browse and turns them into the structured view you need. There is no Skimlane account, no sign-up, and no Skimlane cloud.
Install for ChromeBring your own model
Choose free local models, Groq, private OpenAI-compatible endpoints, or the hosted provider that fits your workflow. Skimlane does not route your content through its own servers.
Automatic, beside you
Auto Skim can process new pages while you browse, with rules and site exclusions you control. It behaves like a reading sidekick instead of another tab to manage.
Your outcome, your view
Ask for a PM brief, technical takeaways, research evidence, risks, decisions, or any custom structure. The goal is useful signal, not one generic summary.
Privacy without a cloud account
Skimlane does not require a Skimlane account and does not track browsing activity. When you choose a hosted model, the browser sends only the content needed for the requested reading task directly to that provider.
