Merlin
Merlin is an AI assistant, delivered as a browser extension and web app, that gives users access to multiple large language models like GPT-4 and Claude for chat, writing, and web page summarization.

Merlin positions itself as a single front door to several AI models rather than locking users into one chatbot. Installed as a Chrome extension, it can summarize articles and YouTube videos, draft emails, and answer questions right inside whatever page the user is on, in addition to running as a standalone chat app. The multi-model angle appeals to people who want to compare answers from different AI systems without paying for separate subscriptions to each one.
Who It’s For
Affiliates covering AI tool roundups, Chrome extension lists, or productivity content aimed at students and knowledge workers are a natural fit, since Merlin’s free tier and low entry price make it an easy tool to recommend without much friction. It also works well in “ChatGPT alternative” or “best AI browser extension” style posts. One thing to flag for readers is that Merlin is a wrapper around third-party models, so its value depends on which underlying models are included in a given plan at the time of writing.
