Optimisey Search Extension

Remove 'AI Overviews' and all the other clutter in Google's search results - at the touch of a button.

Bored of AI deciding what you need to know (and often getting it wrong and/or just getting in the way?).

Tired of all the clutter in Google search results? Get back to 'ten blue links' quickly and easily.

- Toggle the 'Web' filter in Google search on/off easily

Toggle it on to remove:

- AI Overviews
- Answer boxes
- Wikipedia summaries
- Social media call-outs
- Image or video embeds
- 'People Also Ask' suggestions
- Even some of the ads!
and more.

Basically: De-clutter your search results on Google! Get back to finding what YOU want, not what the AI chooses to summarise for you.

Toggle it off: and you can have all the 'features' back again, at the touch of a button.
