One-click summarization powered by Mozilla Readability text extraction. Choose between Google Gemini 1.5 Flash or OpenAI GPT-4o-mini to summarize long articles, documentation, or client specs.

Every page becomes a note, automatically.

Never copy-paste URLs or titles manually again. AirTable Assistant automatically captures page metadata — title, URL, timestamp, and favicons — while you type your thoughts into the Chrome side panel.

Instant Web Notes

Type rich markdown notes in the side panel while reading. Notes attach straight to the active tab URL and sync to your base in real time.

Automatic Metadata

Page title, domain, query parameters, and timestamp are captured as discrete relational fields in your Airtable base.

Zero Storage Silos

Your data stays in your personal or team Airtable base, completely accessible via Airtable web, mobile apps, or API integrations.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Got questions? We've got answers.

Do I need my own Airtable account?

Yes. AirTable Assistant connects directly to your existing Airtable workspace using standard Personal Access Tokens. You maintain total control over your bases and data.

Which AI providers are supported, and do I need an API key?

AirTable Assistant supports Google Gemini 1.5 Flash and OpenAI GPT-4o-mini. You can plug in your own API key or use pre-configured workspace tokens.

What happens if I don't activate a license?

The extension operates fully in Local Mode. Your notes, tab sessions, and metadata remain saved in local browser storage without live cloud syncing.

Does this work in languages other than English / with RTL layouts?

Absolutely. Full LTR and RTL layout switching is available in the side panel header, along with support for Hebrew project status labels ("בביצוע").

Is my data private — does it go anywhere else?

Your data is 100% private. All captured notes and metadata flow strictly between your local browser and your personal Airtable base endpoint.
