+## Highlight Answers
+
+### Most Important: "What is Context Bridge?"
+
+> Context Bridge is a browser extension that lets you share context with AI assistants (ChatGPT, Claude, GitHub Copilot, Gemini) in one click.
+>
+> Instead of copy-pasting your tech stack, project details, or coding conventions into every AI conversation, you:
+> 1. Store your context in a GitHub Gist (once)
+> 2. Click a button in any AI chat
+> 3. Your context is inserted automatically
+
+**Why this answer works**:
+- One sentence explanation (elevator pitch)
+- 3-step workflow (concrete, actionable)
+- No jargon (accessible to non-technical users)
+
+### Most Searched: "How is this different from custom instructions?"
+
+**Comparison table**:

+| Portability | You own it | Locked to OpenAI |
+| Versioning | Gist history | No version control |
