Technical Questions
▶ Why do I get authentication errors?
- Make sure you've granted all necessary permissions when prompted
- Try refreshing your browser and reopening the add-on
- Clear your browser cache and cookies
- If issues persist, contact support@tetrahedral.ai
▶ Why is my image analysis slow?
Analysis speed depends on:
- AI provider server load
- Image complexity and size
- Your internet connection
- Current service demand
Typical analysis takes 5-30 seconds.
▶ Can I analyze images stored in Google Drive?
Currently, images must be accessible via public URLs. To analyze Drive images:
- Make the image publicly viewable
- Get the direct image URL
- Use that URL in your analysis
▶ What if I get an error message?
Common errors and solutions:
- "Usage limit exceeded": Upgrade your plan or wait for monthly reset
- "Invalid image URL": Ensure the URL is publicly accessible and points directly to an image
- "Authentication failed": Re-authenticate through the sidebar
- "Service unavailable": Try again in a few minutes
Privacy and Security
▶ Is my data secure?
Yes, we use industry-standard security measures:
- HTTPS encryption for all data transmission
- Google OAuth 2.0 for secure authentication
- Images are processed but not stored permanently
- Usage data is encrypted and stored securely
▶ Are my images stored permanently?
No, images are processed temporarily and not permanently stored on our servers. They're only sent to AI providers for analysis and then discarded.
Troubleshooting
▶ The add-on won't load
- Refresh your browser
- Disable browser extensions that might interfere
- Try opening in an incognito/private window

- Use clear images: Higher quality images generally produce better results
- Ask focused questions: Break complex questions into smaller parts
- Experiment with models: Different AI models excel at different tasks
▶ How can I organize my image analysis?
