How does Merlin AI work?

Once installed, Merlin runs in the background of your browser. When activated via shortcut or button, it analyzes selected text or your query and delivers AI-generated responses using state-of-the-art models—all within seconds and right on the current page.

What is the difference between Merlin Teams and Merlin Pro Plans?

Merlin Teams offers a flexible pay-per-use model ideal for organizations, allowing cost distribution across team members with centralized admin controls. Merlin Pro is tailored for individual users who want unlimited daily usage without sharing resources.

Is Merlin free to use?

Yes! Merlin AI offers 102 free queries per day for every user. Queries used depend on the model: GPT-3.5 uses 1 per request, while GPT-4 uses 30. No personal data is tracked unless explicitly sent during a query.

Do I need a ChatGPT account?

Which search engines does Merlin support?

Merlin integrates smoothly with major search engines including Google, Bing, Baidu, DuckDuckGo, Yahoo, and Yandex, enhancing your results with AI-powered insights in real time.

What's the difference between ChatGPT and GPT-3?

GPT-3 is a foundational large language model with 175 billion parameters, capable of diverse text generation. ChatGPT is a fine-tuned version optimized for conversation. While GPT-3 powers many applications via API, ChatGPT focuses on dialogue—and Merlin gives you access to both and beyond.

What counts as a query in Merlin?

A query is counted each time you send a prompt to Merlin by pressing Enter. Automatic suggestions on search pages (like Google) are free and do not consume queries.

Why am I seeing: 'Your prompt or context is too long!'?

This error appears when your input exceeds 3500 characters in English. To resolve, shorten your message or break it into smaller parts for processing.

How do I track my daily query usage?

Your remaining query count is displayed in the top-left corner of the Merlin interface whenever you launch it with Ctrl/Cmd + M.

Do I need to refresh websites after installing Merlin?

Tabs open before installation require a refresh to activate Merlin. New tabs opened afterward will have Merlin ready by default. If Merlin doesn't appear, a quick refresh usually fixes it.

ChatGPT is banned in my country—can I still use Merlin?

Yes. Merlin works globally, regardless of local restrictions on other AI tools. You can access its full functionality from any location.

Why do I see: 'Our Servers Are Running Too Hot!'?

This temporary message indicates high demand or brief unresponsiveness from upstream APIs (like OpenAI). It typically resolves within an hour.
