Scored by a Toolio reviewer after real useOur verdict
MaxAI adds a sidebar and right-click menu that let you ask questions about any webpage, improve or translate selected text, and draft replies to emails or messages, all without leaving the page. The free version covers the basics; choosing a stronger model, getting more web search sources, voice input, and image generation all require upgrading to Pro. It draws on models from OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, xAI, DeepSeek, Mistral, and others rather than being tied to just one provider.
