Locus — Smart CTRL + F Extension

Locus Smart Search completely reimagines CTRL + F (or ⌘+F on a Mac) search so you can quickly find information you need from webpages and PDFs using natural language. The extension also provides an easy way to organize your recent searches, tag favorites, and use AI to summarize the page and answers quickly.

Make searches that aren't possible with regular CTRL + F (or ⌘+F on a Mac). Locus understands your search intent and immediately identifies the relevant sections. Refer back to sections in long papers, PDFs, documents, and articles using natural language instead of remembering keywords.

Mix and match documents, searches and summaries in your research!

Whether you're working with long papers, PDFs, documents, articles, news pieces, online textbooks, or blog posts, Locus works seamlessly on most static web pages that contain text.

Save time digesting content on the web and Hack your productivity.

We're constantly working to make the extension better. If you have suggestions or requests, we would love to hear from you in our Discord Community, there you can connect with our team and other Locus users and stay updated: https://discord.gg/kTAH3N9E8a.
