Inspiration

Knowledge workers waste 2+ hours daily reading webpages manually. Critical information gets buried, context-switching kills productivity, and there's no intelligent assistant that lives inside the browser itself. I built AiriaIQ to solve this.

What it does

AiriaIQ is a Chrome browser extension that brings AI-powered intelligence to every webpage:

  • 📋 Summarize any webpage in 5 bullet points instantly
  • 💬 Ask natural language questions about any page
  • ⭐ Extract Key Facts 7 key facts, stats, and data points
  • 📝 Generate Research Reports with Executive Summary, Key Findings, Critical Facts, Context, and Recommendations
  • 🌍 10 Languages get responses in Hindi, Spanish, French, Arabic, and more
  • 📥 Export download reports as .txt or copy to clipboard

How we built it

  • Built a Chrome Manifest V3 extension with a clean sidebar UI
  • Created an Airia agent (GPT-4o Mini) with a custom enterprise system prompt
  • Connected the extension to Airia's Pipeline Execution API
  • Used postMessage communication between the iframe sidebar and content scripts
  • Built 4 feature tabs with a language selector supporting 10 languages
  • Total cost: ₹0

Challenges we ran into

  • Chrome Manifest V3 blocks inline scripts — solved by moving all JS to external files
  • iframes cannot directly use chrome.runtime, solved using postMessage API
  • Getting the sidebar to work on every website including complex SPAs

Accomplishments that we're proud of

  • Fully working AI extension built in under 24 hours
  • Zero cost, no paid APIs, no hosting, no subscriptions
  • Works on literally every website in the world
  • Multilingual AI responses, summarize BBC News in Hindi live

What we learned

  • Deep dive into Chrome Extension Manifest V3 architecture
  • Airia's Pipeline Execution API and agent orchestration
  • postMessage communication patterns for secure cross-frame messaging

What's next for AiriaIQ

  • Smart highlighting = AI highlights key sentences directly on the page
  • History panel = remember last 10 pages analyzed
  • Team sharing = share research reports with colleagues via Slack
  • Chrome Web Store publishing for enterprise distribution
