Get started

Install Arlopass

Two components, under 60 seconds. Install the browser extension to manage AI access, then add the native bridge for local models and advanced features.

Step 1

Browser extension

The extension lives in your browser and manages connections between web apps and your AI providers. Install it from your browser's official store.

Google Chrome

Install from the Chrome Web Store. Works with Chrome, Brave, Arc, and all Chromium-based browsers.

Microsoft Edge

Install from the Edge Add-ons store. Full compatibility with the Chromium extension API.

Firefox

Install from Firefox Add-ons. Uses the WebExtension API with native messaging support.

Step 2

Native bridge

The bridge runs on your machine and securely routes requests between the extension and your AI providers. It enables local model support (Ollama), HMAC authentication, and enterprise policy enforcement.
