This deserves an award! Love the PDF viewer with AI features. Best PDF viewer I have ever used. Wikipedia is also much easier now for learning quickly and deeply. This is the best example I have seen for integrating AI with what we do already.
Thank you for the review! if you have any feedback or improvements you would like to see let us know!

I've never been able to log into this no matter what I try, and it is so utterly garbage if you don't have an account. Requiring an account for a simple extension is also ridiculous, but I digress. The page just infinitely loads when I attempt to make an account. It probably has to do with the enforced captcha that only has text loaded in. Fix your website.
Sorry about the issue you were having with the login. There was a change in the authentication library we use that impacted non-sso based logins. It has been fixed.

lets you search THREE web pages per day. service is slow, and the idea of it is an invasion of privacy.
Hi Mike, Thank you for sharing your feedback. We understand your concerns about privacy and performance, and we appreciate the opportunity to clarify these points. Privacy: Our service allows three document searches per day without requiring an email or any registration. This design is specifically aimed at maximizing user privacy and the albeit limited use of the service without any prerequisites, surpassing many tools that require personal information even for limited access. We are committed to safeguarding our users' data with robust security measures and in accordance with our privacy policy. Performance: The speed of our service can vary depending on the size and complexity of the documents. Given that our models require significant computing resources, such as GPUs, we optimize performance within the constraints of server-side processing. We continuously work on improving this aspect and would be happy to work with you to improve your experience on the documents you have seen slowness on. Freemium Model: The tiered nature of our service is intended to provide flexibility and greater access compared to many similar platforms. By signing up with an email, users can increase their daily limit to 20 documents, and our paid plans offer even higher limits along with dedicated processing resources. This structure supports our ongoing efforts to enhance the platform, fund our infrastructure, and develop new features, all while trying to provide the best possible service to our users. We take pride in our approach and are always open to suggestions on how we can further improve. Thank you for using Locus, and we hope to better meet your expectations in the future.

Locus has made *significant* improvements since the beginning of 2024 and I'm excited to see them build momentum. I was able to easily navigate a scanned 60+ page PDF to find the relevant sections pertaining to the 3-5 topic areas that I care about. This is such a breath of fresh air compared to locating a term in a table of contents, scrolling to it, reading it, then scrolling back to the table of contents, then scrolling back to another page where the key term(s) are formally defined.
Thank you so much for your fantastic review! We're thrilled to hear that the improvements we've made this year have significantly enhanced your experience with Locus. It's especially gratifying to know that our efforts to streamline navigation in large documents, like your 60+ page PDF, are making a difference. Our goal has always been to make information access as efficient and user-friendly as possible, eliminating the need for the tedious back-and-forth you described. Hearing that Locus has been a "breath of fresh air" for you is incredibly motivating for our team. We're excited to keep the momentum going and we have even more enhancements planned. Stay tuned, and please continue to share your valuable feedback with us! Thank you for choosing Locus and for your enthusiastic support.

Locus is very useful for reading and searching long documents. Keyword search is hard to remember exact match with longer documents but with locus I can just use natural language which is much easier.

cant get it to work on anything it just says "Navigate to a valid page or refresh page". i followed all instructions
Hi there, that seems strange, could you send us an email at locusextn.support@locusai.co with some screenshots and the wikipedia pages you are seeing the issue? Sometimes the extension needs a browser restart for it to start indexing the page you are on.

Great potential, but until they release the PDF support it is useless for me. Will stick around to see how this evolves!
PDF Support has been released in the latest 1.3.1 version
