DropIn — AI Study Partner
A Chrome extension that captures a screenshot of any on-screen question and uses AI to return an instant answer — paired with a landing page and mobile companion that make the whole thing feel effortless.
01 — Overview
The brief behind the build
Students don't want to retype a question into a chatbot — they want the answer where the question already is. DropIn closes that gap: screenshot what's on screen, and the AI replies in place, instantly.
The product spans three surfaces — a Chrome extension that does the real work, a landing page that sells the idea in seconds, and a mobile companion — and all three had to feel like one effortless tool.
02 — The challenge
What made it hard
- Designing an extension UI that's instantly useful but never gets in the way of the page behind it.
- Making a capture-to-answer flow that feels like magic — minimal steps, zero friction.
- A landing page that explains a novel idea fast enough to convert a first-time visitor.
- Keeping the extension, site, and mobile app visually and behaviourally consistent.
