No me deja ponerle 0 estrellas... - Solo usaba le extensión para convertir de imagen a texto (veo mucho feedback negativo por el mismo motivo) · Toca desinstalar y buscar otra :)

ekran görüntüsü alıp içinde yazılanları almıyor neden

Yatish Patil2024年3月17日

Image to text feature which was very useful is now remove or not available so there is no point of using this extension

Dipak Roka Magar2024年3月17日

useless without image to text feature

Mohamad Chikho2024年3月16日

Why did you remove image to text feature, that was the whole reason I'm using it for.

Arpan Pandey2024年3月15日

one start is more for you because you remove the image to text feature and i hope if you want to increase the ratting of yours then add the image to text feature back if you dont have this feature then the work you are doing this can do ai also now a days.

AI product read

AI-powered text and code assistant browser extension that provides in-context AI editing, explanation, and generation capabilities on any webpage

Helps developers and users quickly get AI assistance for code understanding, optimization, debugging, text summarization, translation, and editing without leaving their current browsing context

User selects text on any webpage → a tooltip appears → clicking the tooltip opens a popup menu with AI action options (explain, summarize, translate, optimize code, etc.) → action sends the selected text to an AI API (GPT-4o-mini via oi-vscode-server-2.onrender.com) → streaming response is displayed inline with markdown formatting and copy button. On GitHub, a dedicated 'Code Chat' button appears on code files. OCR workflow: user presses keyboard shortcut → selects screen area → screenshot is sent to blackboxapp.co for image-to-text extraction → result is copied to clipboard.

Target users: Software developers seeking inline code assistance / GitHub users wanting AI help understanding codebases / Knowledge workers needing text summarization/translation / Students learning to code

Extension is heavily minified/bundled (IIFE format), making detailed logic tracing difficult
The large content-ui/index.iife.js (3.1MB) was not fully analyzed due to size
The userid mechanism (how it gets populated and whether it gates API access) is unclear from the extension source alone

Monetization

No paid features detected

No payment UI, billing APIs, subscription gates, feature locks, or upgrade prompts found anywhere in the extension source code. Keywords like 'premium', 'upgrade', 'payment', 'stripe', and 'pricing' returned zero matches. The 'pro' matches are all React production build identifiers (react.production.min.js, react.profiler), not paid feature indicators. The deterministic heuristic confirmed isPaid=0. BLACKBOX.AI as a web service (blackbox.ai) likely has paid tiers, but the extension itself does not gate any features behind payment.

Confidence: 75
Payment platform: --
Source: AI / Medium
Login required: No
Reason: No login UI or authentication flow found in the extension source code. The content script sends an optional 'userid' header (from local storage, can be empty string) to the AI API endpoint at https://oi-vscode-server-2.onrender.com/v1/chat/completions, but no mechanism was found in the extension to set or obtain this userid through login. The popup and options pages contain no login forms, OAuth flows, or credential entry UI. The extension appears functional without authentication.
