PrivyExtract
Summarize pages and selected text through your own local model.
Overview
PrivyExtract is a privacy-first Chrome extension for turning web pages and selected text into concise summaries. It sends summary requests to your local Ollama service, stores only your extension preferences, and avoids cloud summarization services.
Features
- Web summarization — Extract current page or selected text and generate summaries with one click.
- Local Ollama — All summary requests go only to your local Ollama service.
- Customizable preferences — Choose summary type and length.
- Zero external transmission — Communication between browser and local Ollama only. No cloud. No third parties.
Advantages
PrivyExtract keeps the browser-to-AI path simple: page content goes from Chrome to your local Ollama server, not to a hosted summary platform. There are no third-party analytics, external AI APIs, or remote accounts involved in the summarization flow.
Benefits
Read long articles, documentation, and research pages faster while keeping sensitive browsing context out of cloud summarizers. You control the model, summary style, and local endpoint.
Requirements
- Google Chrome or a compatible Chromium browser
- Ollama — Installed and running locally for summary generation.
- Local model — A chat-capable model available in Ollama for summarizing page content.
