Installation
How to install Chatwing AI in Chrome
The extension is installed from a ZIP archive in developer mode. It takes about a minute and needs no extra software.
Step by step
Download the extension archive
Open the download page on the official site and save the ZIP archive of the latest version.
Unpack it into its own folder
Do not delete or move the unpacked folder: Chrome stops finding the extension.
Turn on developer mode
Open chrome://extensions in the browser and switch on the developer mode toggle.
Load the unpacked extension
Choose "Load unpacked" and select the folder with the unpacked archive.
Get access in the Telegram bot
Open the Chatwing AI bot, take a trial or a subscription and collect the licence key.
Paste the licence and test the connection
Paste the key into the extension settings, accept the chat processing consent, pick a model and run Test AI connection.
Check the first reply in a chat
Open a chat, select a message and press Generate — the extension drafts a reply.
What to check after installing
- The extension appears on chrome://extensions and its icon is visible in the Chrome toolbar.
- The extension settings accept the chat processing consent and a provider and model are selected.
- Test AI connection returns success, which means the licence and the provider are working.
- The Chatwing AI panel opens in a chat and the Generate button produces a draft reply.
If something does not work
- After updating the extension, reload the chat tab — the panel picks up the new build only after a page reload.
- Do not delete or move the unpacked folder: Chrome stops finding the extension.
- If the panel does not appear, check the support page for what to include in a request.
