About AI-Watch
AI-Watch is a browser extension that attaches real-time temporal information to AI chat messages, including exact date, time, timezone, session duration, and elapsed time since the last message. It aims to eliminate ambiguity in time references by providing precise context that AI models can use to interpret phrases like “tomorrow” or “last week” accurately. The tool works with major AI platforms such as ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Mistral, Perplexity, Grok, Open WebUI, Ollama, and LM Studio. It operates entirely locally with no network requests, ensuring privacy and verifiability through open-source code. Users can personalize their experience through a workshop interface that allows customization of the temporal block content and timing parameters. The extension offers three visual collections—Heritage, Studio, and Lab—each providing the same core functionality with different aesthetic approaches. AI-Watch is available as a free download on Chrome, Firefox, Edge, and Brave, with Opera support pending store approval.
