Read Something

Reading online shouldn't feel like fighting through clutter, tiny fonts, and distracting layouts. Read Something is an open-source Chrome extension that transforms any webpage into a clean, comfortable reading experience — similar to Safari's reader mode, but smarter. You can customize font styles, line spacing, and page width to suit your preferences, and export pages to Markdown with ease.

But the real magic is in the AI layer. Read Something generates AI-powered summaries of what you're reading, supports interactive Q&A so you can dig deeper into any topic, and offers translation across multiple languages including Chinese and English via Google Translate, Tencent Translate, and OpenAI Translate. Whether you're a researcher, a student, or just someone who reads a lot online, this extension makes every session more focused and productive.
