Overview
Beacon Lens is a browser extension that provides AI-powered assistance on any web page without breaking your browsing flow. Instead of switching to a separate tool to research, analyse, or summarise what you are looking at, Lens does it in context — right where you are.
Every feature is designed around a single idea: research and discovery should happen naturally, not as a separate task that pulls you out of what you were doing. Lens reads the page you are on and provides relevant answers, analysis, and actions without you needing to copy-paste content into another tool.
The extension is free to install. AI-powered features incur pay-as-you-go charges based on API consumption.
What We Cover
Contextual Assistance
Lens analyses the page you are currently viewing and provides relevant assistance based on the content. Ask a question about what you are reading, request a summary, or get related information — all without leaving the page. See Browser Assistance for details.
Research Workflows
For deeper research tasks, Lens supports multi-step workflows that build on page context. Compare information across multiple pages, extract structured data, and compile research notes — all from within the browser. See Research Workflows for how this works in practice.
Page Analysis
Lens can analyse the current page for content quality, structure, and technical attributes. This is particularly useful for content teams reviewing competitor pages, marketers evaluating landing pages, and developers checking page structure.
Quick Actions
One-click actions for common tasks: summarise this page, extract key points, explain this in simpler terms, and find related content. These are the actions that come up dozens of times a day but are too small to justify opening a separate tool.
