Install the extension
Get Teleperson running in Chrome, Edge, or Firefox in under two minutes.
The Teleperson browser extension is a Manifest V3 extension that runs in Chromium-based browsers (Chrome, Edge, Brave, Arc) and Firefox.
Install from the Chrome Web Store
The fastest path. Once published, the listing is the canonical install surface for all Chromium browsers.
- Visit the Teleperson listing on the Chrome Web Store.
- Click Add to Chrome (or Add to Edge / Add to Brave, depending on your browser).
- Approve the permissions prompt. Teleperson requests
storage,tabs, andactiveTabplus host access to read public pages on company sites. - Pin the extension to your toolbar for one-click access.
Side-load (developers)
If you're contributing to the extension or testing a pre-release build:
- Clone the repo and build the extension:
cd extension npm install npm run build - In Chrome, open
chrome://extensions, enable Developer mode, click Load unpacked, and pick theextension/dist/directory. - The Teleperson icon should appear in your toolbar. Click it to open the side panel.
Firefox
Teleperson supports Firefox via a Manifest V3 build with Gecko-specific shims.
Until the listing is approved on addons.mozilla.org, you can side-load the
unsigned build:
- Build the Firefox bundle:
cd extension npm run build:firefox - Open
about:debugging#/runtime/this-firefox, click Load Temporary Add-on, and pickextension/dist/manifest.json.
Temporary add-ons are unloaded when Firefox restarts. For persistent installs
through addons.mozilla.org, wait for the public listing or contact us for an
unlisted distribution URL.
What gets installed
| Surface | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Side panel | The main UI. Opens with one click on the toolbar icon, or pinned to the side. |
| Background service worker | Handles auth, backend sync, and the chat co-pilot agent loop. |
| Content script | Reads the current page to detect the company, scrape contact info, and observe on-page chatbots. |
The extension never reads page content unless the side panel is open or the co-pilot is actively running. There's no remote loading of code; every script ships in the build.
Signing in
Two ways to sign in to the extension:
- Email and password. Enter your Teleperson email and password, then type the 6-digit code we send to your inbox. The OTP is the second factor — it's required every sign-in, not just the first one.
- Sign in with Google. Click Sign in with Google under the password form. A Google sign-in window opens; pick the account you want to use. No email OTP is needed afterward — Google's own authentication counts as the second factor, and asking for a second OTP at the same Gmail inbox you just authenticated to wouldn't add security.
If you've used Teleperson before with a password and now sign in with the same email via Google, both paths land on the same account.
After your first sign-in
The first time you sign in inside the extension, we send a welcome email to
your account address. It includes a five-minute quickstart and the three ways
to populate your Company Hub. If it doesn't arrive within a minute or two,
check spam and add hello@teleperson.com to your contacts.
