- The Chromium-based app embeds a persistent ChatGPT sidebar, cursor-triggered in-page chat, and optional browser memories to personalize browsing.

- OpenAI says memories are opt-in and clearable, interactions pause for confirmation on sensitive sites, and code execution, file downloads and extensions are restricted.
- Users can sign in with a ChatGPT account and import Chrome bookmarks, passwords and browsing history with one click to ease migration.
