## Browser plugin
There is a browser plugin available for [Chrome](https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/part-db-page-submitter/bckkfkpidiiibmjdhjakleoagjmepioi) and [Firefox](https://addons.mozilla.org/de/firefox/addon/part-db-page-submitter/)
that allows to submit a website from your browser with one click to Part-DB, which then utilizes the Generic Web URL or the AI Web Provider to extract the part information from the page and pre-fill the part creation form.
The advantage is that it also works for pages behind logins, CAPTCHAs, or bot-blocking sites, as the plugin sends the already loaded page HTML to Part-DB.
The plugin is open source and available on [GitHub](https://github.com/Part-DB/browser-plugin).
To use it install it in your browser, enable one or more of the web page providers in Part-DB and allow the plugin support
in Part-DB settings. After that you can submit any product page to Part-DB with one click and the part creation form will be pre-filled with the information from the page.
## Data providers
The system tries to be as flexible as possible, so many different information sources can be used.
