This add-on stores your login information in a Cookie.
If you are concerned about security, please do not use this add-on.
(To delete the cookie, delete the add-on or delete the User_files folder.)

  • Advantages of using cookie
    • No need for tedious 2-step authentication
    • Free AI can be used as much as you want (no need for API)
  • Disadvantages of using cookie
    • Poor security
    • Add-on is easily broken

To resolve this cookie issue, API is needed (in short, it will be paid for).
I have not yet developed the function to use the API.

Edit: I added an option to not save cookies. Previous versions of the AI service required users to log in but recently it has become possible to use it without logging in so I think it should work fine even without cookies. (if you disable the cookie option your login will be reset when you restart Anki.)

[ 🤖Limits of each AI ]

  • Chat GPT
    • The fastest, but has an hourly limit
      (30 times per hour, so about 1 time every 2 minutes),
      so if you use it continuously, it will reach the limit soon.
  • Google Gemini (GoogleBard)
    • Unlimited number of replies, but replies are a bit slow.
  • Microsoft Copilot (Bing Chat)
    • 30 chats per session and 300 chats per day, but GPT-4 is free.
  • Claude
  • Perplexity
  • DeepSeek
  • Duck Duck Go AI

[ 📖How to Use ]

For more info on how to use it, please read the Wiki. ↓

[ 🛠️Known Issues ]

  • Mac Anki23.12.1 cannot open Bird and Bing(ChatGPT is good), but Mac23.12 can.
    This problem is a Qt issue, so perhaps the latest Anki update will fix it when Qt is updated.
  • There seems to be a bug that sometimes the sidebar does not display properly, this is still under repair.
  • This add-on requires the add-on to be completely closed when updating. Basically it will close automatically, if not, please close it manually from the add-ons menu.
    • Menu -> Tools -> AnkiTerminator -> Completely Close Addon (For update addon)
    • Or, start Anki with the add-on toggled OFF and then update it.
