Stop switching tabs. Press one hotkey to freeze your screen, box any messy code, diagram, or formula, and let Kogvio explain it right where you work.
Use the lightweight extension for online reading, or run the native desktop app to scan across absolutely any software on your machine.
Runs silently in your system tray. Freeze the screen over any desktop application to crop regions into your Context Tray, spawning a widget right next to your mouse.
Zero-install overhead. Highlight dense academic papers, arXiv PDFs, GitHub repositories, or online lecture boards without ever opening a new tab.
Everything you need to debug, solve, and understand. Nothing you don't.
Add up to 10 snips across different apps at once—a terminal error in VS Code, a schematic in a PDF, and a documentation table in Chrome—and ask one question across all of them.
General AI chatbots waste time with polite introductions. Kogvio routes every snip through strict system instructions so you get the exact format you need on the first try.
Whiteboard formulas, scrawled lecture notes, and photos of physical pages come through cleanly.
KaTeX math and VS Code syntax-highlighted blocks appear formatted with one-click copy buttons.
Flowcharts, Unity/Blender nodes, and architecture diagrams get explained step by step.
Organize past scans into custom project or subject folders and continue chats weeks later.
Kogvio runs on its own dedicated backend. Log in once and start scanning immediately.
Define your stack or study level once, and Kogvio automatically remembers it for future scans.
You settle yourself down to finally read that complex research paper or debug a new framework and tell yourself that you will concentrate and stay focused. Within minutes, you hit a wall of dense terminology, unfamiliar equations, or undocumented code.
What you normally do is highlight the text or take a screenshot, open a new browser tab, go to ChatGPT, paste it in, and request a simple explanation. You read the summary, switch back to your PDF or IDE, and spend ten seconds trying to remember where you left off.
Two minutes later, it happens again—another confusing diagram, another window switch, and another round of copy-and-paste.
By the time you realize it, forty-five minutes have gone by. Six different AI chat tabs are open, and you haven't even finished the first section. The mental energy spent managing windows and context-switching drains you faster than the actual work.
Most people rely on the copy-and-paste method: locate a difficult paragraph or error log, copy it, and paste it into a separate chat tab. And when you're working with visual elements—like Unity node graphs, pathology pathways, Zoom lecture slides, or hardware schematics—you can't even copy the text at all.
The issue isn't the intelligence of the AI; it's the interface. Isolating your AI assistant in a separate browser tab forces you to act as a manual courier between your workspace and the model.
When you are reading a paper in Chrome or writing code in VS Code, the explanation belongs right beside the problem you are looking at. That is why I built Kogvio as both a browser extension and a native desktop copilot.
Instead of switching windows, you stay in place. Press Ctrl + Shift + E, drag a box over any part of your screen, and a sleek glassmorphic card appears right next to your cursor. You get a clean, formatted breakdown—complete with LaTeX math and syntax-highlighted code—then hit Escape and keep working.
Invest in your focus.
Essential AI vision for quick daily tasks on web and desktop.
High-volume scans, multi-app Context Tray, and permanent Workspace folders.
The Chrome Extension works inside Chrome, Brave, and Edge on any OS. The Windows Desktop App runs in your system tray and lets you press Ctrl+Shift+E over any software on your PC—including VS Code, Unity, Zoom lectures, Excel, and desktop PDF readers. Both sync to the same account.
A single highlight only sees that one image. The Context Tray holds up to 10 snips at once—even across different apps—so you can ask a question that depends on all of them together, like comparing your code in VS Code against a specification diagram in a PDF.
Yes. Our vision model reads bad handwriting, scanned photos of physical notes, circuit diagrams, and multi-line equations cleanly.
No API keys required. Kogvio runs entirely on our own dedicated backend servers. You just log in and start scanning immediately.
