What Clico is
Clico is a free browser extension that adds AI writing help directly inside text boxes. Instead of opening a separate chat window, you press a shortcut while your cursor is in the box and Clico writes or rewrites a reply based on the page you are already looking at. Highlight any text and it explains it, double tap and it produces a structured summary of the page, and holding a key turns your speech into text. It is operated by SOPHIAPRO PTE LTD, listed as free, and works across the sites where people write most, including Gmail, Google Docs, Notion, Slack, Discord, LinkedIn, Reddit, and Substack.
What you can do with it
- Write or rewrite a reply without leaving the page.
- Highlight a paragraph and get an explanation in place.
- Summarise a long article into key points and action items.
- Dictate text hands free and have it transcribed as you speak.
Who it is for
- Professionals who spend the day answering email.
- Students and researchers reading and annotating online material.
- Content creators posting across several platforms from one browser.
What to watch out for
Because the extension reads visible page content, read the privacy policy carefully before using it on confidential documents, client work, or anything under a non-disclosure agreement. Browser extensions ask for permissions that can be broad, so check what Clico requests and remove it if you are not comfortable. A free extension can change its pricing or shortcuts at any time, and AI suggestion quality varies, so treat output as a draft you edit rather than a final answer you send unread. Features and interface details may change between versions, so review the latest notes on the page before you start.
