  "account": "Firefox has introduced two new features to its AI-powered browsing experience, Smart Window. The first feature allows the browser to draw from your open tabs to help fill out online forms. For instance, if you're filling out a job application, Smart Window can pull details from your online portfolio or LinkedIn profile to populate the job description and work history sections.\n\nTo use this feature, open a form with at least four text fields and look for the \"Fill from sources\" option that appears. This will display all the tabs Firefox is considering for the form. You can then choose which tabs to include or exclude, and the browser will generate suggestions based on the information in those tabs.\n\nCurrently, this feature supports filling out text fields on web forms, but Mozilla is working on expanding support to include dropdown menus and PDFs. Importantly, data from your source pages is shared with Google’s Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite, the AI model that generates the text suggestions.\n\nIn addition to form filling, Smart Window can now monitor a webpage for changes such as new sales, job listings, or other updates. You can initiate a watch task by typing \"/watch\" in the Smart Window chat, specifying what you're looking for and the pages you want to monitor. Firefox will then check for updates daily or weekly, provided the browser is open. If it doesn't detect a change after 60 days, the monitoring will pause; after 90 days, monitoring will stop entirely.\n\nThese two features are currently available in the Smart Window beta for desktop users in the US and Canada. They will be rolled out to other countries in the coming months. To try these features, sign in to Firefox and enable the Smart Window beta.",
