No brainer! Just what I've been looking for. Maybe beta, but well built.

Was looking for an extension able to read the current web page and use my own API keys to models (to save money, use more advanced models when needed, and avoid token throttling).

Everything else is a bonus. Love I can not only "chat with page" but "search entire domain, prompt multiple documents (stored in a library), take screenshots, transcribe prompts speaking out loud, and get transcripts for videos on so many different services as I do a lot of learning. Document library, prompt library, and chat history very handy. Extensive model provider options fantastic. Can switch models between prompts in same chat.

Ability to export responses as PDF or CSV is super.

Floating bubble with quick access to features also chef's kiss.

The UI feels like it is still "under development" - but what is developed so far feels clean, well built and looks reasonably nice. Have a bit of feedback below but this is wishful thinking. $19 = five taco no brainer even if nothing changes.

At first I didn't like that the chat is a floating window vs. sidebar but after testing I might actually prefer this as it doesn't disrupt the page.

Suggestions for the roadmap:

> Keep the chat window open / floating when changing tabs (currently it minimises when changing tabs, although when I re-open it it's nice it still has the same chat open).
> Add exe.ai model provider for search
> Add exporting as DOC or TXT
> To read the page currently need to manually switch to "ChatGPT web" model then back to desired model to continue prompting. Would be a bonus if tool automatically switched in the background to pull the page then continued prompt with desired model.
> The "Bot API" settings currently requires adding an entry for each model from each provider one-by-one. It would be fab if we could just check a box next to the name of each model we want to use from each provider in one screen with default settings for all (API key, config, etc). Maybe could add option of clicking "settings" next to the name of each model to specify alternative settings if needed.
> When selecting a model in the chat, would like to be able to re-order the list of providers to have my most used at the top. Need to scroll to get all the custom ones at the bottom.
> Add option for local models / RAG
> Things I don't expect from this tool but would love: agents / workflows / web scraping, webhook / API to non-AI services (so we might send emails, schedule meetings, post to social media / blogs)

Hi Piper,

Thank you so much for taking the time to write this incredible, detailed review! 🙏

I'm stoked to hear about how valuable you find Viinyx AI! It’s rewarding to know that the tools and features we've developed are making a positive impact on your browsing experience. Your feedback inspires us to keep improving and innovating, ensuring you have the best possible experience every time you use it. Thank you for your support! 🌮

We recognize the need for improvement in the interface and appreciate your honest thoughts. Your insights are essential as we enhance the user experience. We’re committed to making the extension even better.

Regarding suggestions for the roadmap:
> Could you share some more information on the chat window not remaining open when changing tabs? The Viinyx chatbox shouldn't disappear when switching tabs.
> Can you share a link for/about the exe.ai model?
> You don't need to switch to ChatGPT Web to read the current page; the active page content is accessible to all LLM providers.
> For the "Bot API" settings - Do you mean to allow users to set a model/config as default for each provider? And let the users duplicate a config to specify alternate parameters?

We appreciate all your suggestions and will take them into account for future updates.

Thanks again for being a part of the Viinyx journey!
