AI overview

Mozilla demonstrated Firefox's Smart Window feature, which runs as a sidebar and lets users ask it in natural language to fill out web forms such as job applications, service bookings, or online registrations. It analyzes the form fields on a page, extracts the name, contact information, and work experience from materials such as a résumé, and fills them into the corresponding fields, showing the user the content to be submitted for review and modification before submission. Mozilla says its positioning is that of an intelligent assistant capable of understanding and operating web content, rather than a mere chatbot, and emphasizes that users can control the scope of information the AI can access. On October 27, 2026, Mozilla announced that the beta version adds two capabilities: extracting information from user-selected tabs to assist in filling out online forms, and monitoring web page changes according to user descriptions; form filling uses Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite to identify fields and extract information, while page monitoring uses the Qwen model. The two features are currently available to English-language desktop beta users in the United States and Canada; page monitoring tracks at most 5 pages per task and retains at most 15 active tasks. The feature is still in the testing phase, and no timeline has been announced for making it available to all Firefox users.

Both features are currently limited to English-speaking users in the United States and Canada.

    On October 27, 2026, Mozilla announced that the beta version of Firefox's Smart Window adds two capabilities: extracting information from user-selected tabs to help fill out online forms, and monitoring web page changes based on user descriptions. Form filling uses Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite to identify fields and extract information, while page monitoring uses the Qwen model, even if another model is selected in the Smart Window settings; saved autofill data remains local and is not sent to the model. Both features are currently available to English-language desktop beta users in the United States and Canada, and page monitoring tracks up to 5 pages per task and retains up to 15 active tasks.

    Firefox Smart Window adds AI form filling and web page monitoring features

    Mozilla has added a form filling feature to Smart Window, Firefox's AI browsing experience. It can extract information from open tabs to generate filling suggestions, and the data will be shared with Google's Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite model. Users can also type /watch in the Smart Window chat to have the browser monitor specified web pages daily or weekly for changes such as promotions and job postings. It only checks while the browser is open, pauses after 60 days without changes, and stops after 90 days. Both features have launched in the Smart Window beta on desktop in the United States and Canada, and will roll out in other countries in the coming months.
