Scored by a Toolio reviewer after real useOur verdict
Select AI runs on an API key you supply yourself, then lets you highlight text on any page and start a conversation with AI in whichever language you prefer, from Spanish to Mandarin. Conversations stay continuous even when you select multiple pieces of text across a page. With just one public rating and no built-in AI access of its own, it's a thin wrapper that depends entirely on you bringing your own key.
