Inspiration

ScrollSense AI began with a simple idea — reading and researching online shouldn’t mean jumping between tabs and losing your train of thought. I often found myself copying snippets or links into a chat just to ask questions. So, I decided to bring the conversation into the page — keeping the flow, the context, and the curiosity all in one place.

What it does

Summarize page content and chat with the webpage instantly. It turns static content into an interactive learning space, powered by on-device AI for privacy, speed, and seamless context retention.

How we built it

  • Developed a browser extension that extracts the active tab's URL from any webpage.
  • Integrated an on-device gemini model, that performs summarization and contextual Q&A in real time.
  • Focused on a privacy-first design, ensuring all processing happens locally.

Challenges we ran into

  • Handling pages that change or reload content as you scroll.
  • Maintaining consistent context without storing excessive data. This was fixed by simply passing the URL of the active page instead of passing the actual content.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

  • Making privacy a core feature, not an afterthought.
  • Building an assistant that genuinely complements the user’s workflow instead of interrupting it.

What's next for ScrollSense AI

  • Auto scroll-to-content: Automatically scrolls to the most relevant section of the page when summarizing or answering queries.
  • Context-Aware Conversations: Maintains awareness of previous questions and page context to deliver smarter, more coherent answers.
  • Plugin ecosystem: Extend the assistant’s capabilities with modular plugins like search, citation, or calculators for advanced workflows.
  • Smart Page Navigation: Extend the assistant’s capabilities with modular plugins like search, citation, or calculators for advanced workflows.
