Getting Started
Appilot helps you complete complex web tasks by providing intelligent, context-aware assistance directly on the page you're working on.
Step 1: Install the Extension
From Chrome Web Store
- Visit the Appilot Chrome Extension page
- Click Add to Chrome
- Confirm the installation when prompted
Manual installation
If your organization provides a direct download:
- Download the
.zipfile from appilot.com - Open Chrome and navigate to
chrome://extensions - Enable Developer mode (toggle in top right)
- Click Load unpacked and select the extracted folder
Step 2: Sign in
- Click the Appilot floating button that appears on any webpage (bottom-right corner)
- The side panel opens — click Sign In
- Enter your email and password (provided by your organization or created at appilot.com)
- Once signed in, the assistant is ready to help
Step 3: Ask your first question
Navigate to any web page and open the Appilot panel. Try asking:
- "What should I enter in this form?"
- "What does this field mean?"
- "How do I complete this process?"
Appilot reads the page context — forms, fields, labels, navigation — and provides answers based on your organization's knowledge base.
What happens behind the scenes
When you interact with Appilot:
- The extension captures the page context (forms, fields, page structure) — no personal data
- Your question + context is sent to the Appilot backend
- The AI finds relevant knowledge from your organization's knowledge base and uploaded documents
- You receive a grounded, contextual answer — not a generic AI response
