What is Pudding
AI desktop pet & web companion—translate, summarize & read pages, tabs & notes. Quiet until you need it. Pudding — AI Desktop Pet & Web AI Companion
Pudding is an AI desktop pet in the corner of your browser. It stays quiet for company; when you read long articles, foreign languages, messy tabs, or need focus, it helps with on-page AI and lightweight tools—without blocking the page or keeping a chat sidebar open all day.
AI reading
- Select-to-translate & selection summary — highlight text; a floating toolbar appears without stealing page focus
- Summarize this page — one-click takeaways (Chrome built-in AI preferred, depending on your browser)
- Reader mode — extract the article, less clutter, better for deep reading
Lightweight tools (bottom Quickbar)
- Search and switch tabs, quick notes
- Screenshots: visible area & full-page capture
- Tab sorting, ad/notification helpers (toggle in settings; ad blocking is off by default)
