Deep dive into Creating product lists from browser tabs

Manually compiling product lists by copying and pasting names and links from multiple browser tabs is a time-consuming task. Here's a powerful new capability that allows the AI assistant to automatically scan all your open tabs, extract key product information, and generate a clean, formatted list with a single prompt. This feature streamlines the creation of product roundups, research documents, and shopping lists.

What's new

The AI assistant can now process information from multiple open tabs within a single browser window. You can instruct it to gather specific details, such as product names and URLs, from all open Amazon pages. The assistant will not only collect this data but also intelligently format it, shortening long product titles and providing clean links, presenting the final output as an organized list directly in the chat interface.

How to use this feature

  1. Open the product pages you want to include in your list, each in its own browser tab.
  2. Open the Assistant sidebar on any of the pages.
  3. Write a prompt asking the assistant to create a list from your open tabs. Be specific about the desired format, for example, 'Take all the Amazon tabs in this window, get the short URL, format the product title to be as short as possible, and then give me a list.'
  4. The assistant will then scan the tabs and generate a formatted list based on your instructions.

Key capabilities

  • Multi-Tab Processing: Gathers information from all open tabs in a window simultaneously, eliminating the need to process one page at a time.
  • Smart Formatting: Automatically shortens and cleans up long, complex product titles for better readability.
  • Clean Link Generation: Extracts and provides shortened, canonical URLs, removing unnecessary tracking parameters.
  • Custom Output: Allows you to define the structure of the final list directly in your prompt, ensuring the output meets your specific needs.

Tips for getting the most out of this feature

For the best results, be clear and specific in your prompt. For instance, explicitly ask for the 'short URL' and to 'format the product title to be as short as possible' to get clean, concise output. This feature is especially useful for creating affiliate link lists, gift guides, or research summaries quickly.

Summary

Creating product lists from browser tabs transforms a tedious manual task into a fast, automated workflow. By instructing the AI to read and compile data from multiple open pages, you can generate clean, formatted lists in moments. This feature is a significant time-saver for anyone who frequently curates lists of products or resources from the web.
