Weft: Turn browser into cited insights
đź‘ŤAI-powered extension in solving ALL information problems!
Weft turns Chrome into a source-grounded research workspace for web pages and PDFs. Unlike standard AI extensions that rely on an opaque active-tab context, Weft works from user-curated Sessions with traceable [S#] and [W#] citations connecting answers directly to saved evidence. Meanwhile, you are entitled to select a text snippet and check/verify/explain it just in ONE second. Key Highlights: - Traceable Synthesis - Smart PDF & Web Reader - Human-in-the-Loop Search - Flexible export and import
Hey Product Hunt! đź‘‹
I’m thrilled to share Weft with you all today!
If your research workflow looks like mine—opening dozens of tabs, manually copying snippets into notes, asking AI to summarize, and then completely losing track of where each conclusion came from—we built Weft specifically for you.
Weft is a local-first Chrome extension that turns your browser side panel into a workspace built for grounded research. Instead of letting AI generate vague answers from thin air, Weft puts you in control of the evidence pool.
đź’ˇ What makes Weft different?
Grounded Generation with Sources: Answers and reports cite exact sources ([S1], [S2]) from your active Session. External deep search results ([W1], [W2]) are kept clearly distinct so you can always verify facts.
Smart Read & Direct PDF Reader: Process long articles and text-based PDFs with intelligent chunking. Extracts key evidence without blowing up model context windows or forcing you to read cover-to-cover.
Human-in-the-Loop Deep Search: When your saved notes aren't enough, Deep Search proposes exact search queries for you to review, edit, or approve before hitting the web.
Instant Diagrams & Visuals: One-click generation of Mermaid flowcharts and mind maps directly from your research snippets.
Local-First & Privacy-Focused: No proprietary tracking or backend servers. Your sessions and API keys stay on your machine. You can even run it entirely offline using Ollama or Chrome Built-in AI.
Check out Weft on GitHub or install it directly from the Chrome Web Store.
