Summary

Docky installs as a Chrome or Edge extension and surfaces GPT, Claude, Gemini, DeepSeek, Grok, and image-generation models behind a single Cmd+K keystroke. The multi-model @group chat lets you query several models at once and compare answers in one view, which matters when you're iterating on copy and need to know whether GPT or Claude is reading your brief better. OCR extraction and PDF/Word/PPT summarization work directly on files you have open, without uploading to a separate service. The ceiling appears when your workflow needs API access, automation, or any output that must connect to another system — Docky has no API surface and no integration layer. At that point, teams maintain Docky for quick lookups and build a separate pipeline for anything that needs to move data downstream.

Bottom line: Pick Docky for in-browser research, multi-model copy comparison, and on-the-fly document summarization — but the moment your output needs to trigger anything outside the browser, you're exporting manually and Docky stops being enough.

Pros

  • @group chat queries GPT, Claude, and Gemini simultaneously in one thread, so you pick the best answer without running the same prompt three times across three tabs.
  • Cmd/Alt+K sidebar access works on any website without a new tab, which means your context — the article, the document, the draft — stays in view while you work with AI against it.
  • OCR extraction pulls text from scanned images and PDFs directly in the sidebar, so researchers processing document archives skip the copy-paste step that breaks flow.
  • Four image-generation models (Flux, DALL-E HD, SDXL, Ideogram) are switchable in one click, so you match the generation style to the job without maintaining separate accounts or tabs.
  • Inline text-selection toolbar on any webpage triggers explain, translate, or continue actions instantly, which means writers and translators stop context-switching to refine phrasing mid-read.

Cons

  • No API surface exists on the vendor page, so any workflow that needs Docky's output to feed another tool — a CMS, a database, a Slack message — requires manual copy-paste; teams building automated content pipelines hit this wall immediately and need a different tool.
  • All processing runs through Docky's cloud with no self-hosted option described, which means teams operating under data-residency requirements or handling sensitive documents cannot route that work through this sidebar and will evaluate alternatives with on-premises deployment.
  • The sidebar is browser-bound: no desktop app, no mobile client, no CLI access is described, so any workflow that happens outside Chrome or Edge — batch processing, server-side summarization, headless document review — is outside what Docky can address, and teams doing that work at scale switch to a platform with an API or SDK.

Switching between AI tabs drains focus

Switching between ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini tabs to compare outputs is a productivity drain disguised as a workflow. Docky collapses that into a single browser sidebar.

How it works

Docky installs as a Chrome or Edge extension and surfaces GPT, Claude, Gemini, DeepSeek, Grok, and image-generation models behind a single Cmd+K keystroke. The multi-model @group chat lets you query several models at once and compare answers in one view, which matters when iterating on copy and need to know whether GPT or Claude is reading your brief better. OCR extraction and PDF/Word/PPT summarization work directly on files you have open, without uploading to a separate service.

Use cases

Summarizing web pages and research PDFs. Comparing responses from multiple AI models side by side. Composing and refining emails, blogs, and social posts. Generating images in different styles without leaving the current tab. Extracting text via OCR from images or scanned documents.

Pros and limits

The vendor states @group chat queries GPT, Claude, and Gemini simultaneously in one thread, so you pick the best answer without running the same prompt three times across three tabs. Cmd/Alt+K sidebar access works on any website without a new tab, which means your context stays in view while you work with AI against it. OCR extraction pulls text from scanned images and PDFs directly in the sidebar. Four image-generation models (Flux, DALL-E HD, SDXL, Ideogram) are switchable in one click. Free forever, no credit card required. No API surface exists, so any workflow that needs Docky’s output to feed another tool requires manual copy-paste. All processing runs through Docky’s cloud with no self-hosted option described. The sidebar is browser-bound.

Who it is for / who should skip it

Best for users needing quick AI access while browsing, content creators comparing model outputs, researchers summarizing documents, and writers refining tone and grammar in context. Teams that need API access, automation, self-hosted options, or data-residency controls should skip it. The ceiling appears when your workflow needs API access, automation, or any output that must connect to another system.
