Keep the Gemini web app in Chrome's side panel while you browse. Not made by, endorsed by, or affiliated with Google. Keep Gemini™ in Side Panel brings the power of Gemini directly into your browsing workflow by embedding the Gemini web app in Chrome’s side panel. The extension keeps the assistant visible and accessible while you browse, so you can ask questions, draft text, summarize pages, or get research help without switching tabs. It’s designed to feel like a natural extension of your browser—lightweight, responsive, and always within reach.
The extension opens Gemini in a persistent vertical panel that stays open across tabs and windows. You can pin the panel to keep it available during long sessions, resize it to suit your screen, and quickly toggle visibility with a single click or keyboard shortcut. Because Gemini runs inside the side panel, you keep full context of the page you’re viewing while interacting with the assistant, which makes referencing, quoting, and following up faster and less disruptive.
Keep Gemini™ in Side Panel is built for multitasking. Use it to summarize long articles while you read, draft emails or messages without leaving the page, translate snippets on the fly, or pull up quick code examples and documentation while developing. The side panel is especially useful for research workflows where you need to compare sources, take notes, or keep a running list of ideas without losing your place in the main tab.
Privacy and performance are central to the design. The extension runs within your browser and does not require uploading the page content to third-party services beyond what Gemini itself uses; it avoids unnecessary background processes and keeps resource use minimal. Controls let you manage when the panel is active and what data is shared during a session, so you can balance convenience with your own privacy preferences.
