Overview

AI at your cursor and in your sidebar: select or right-click anything for an instant, context-aware answer. Privacy-first.

✦ AI at your cursor. Answers right where you're reading. Stop copy-pasting into a chatbot tab. Select any text, point at an image, or open an email, and Glimpsa answers in a small panel right next to it. No new tab, and you never lose your place. ✓ Reply to email in seconds ✓ Understand any paragraph, chart or screenshot ✓ Fact-check AI answers against live sources ✓ Private by design: nothing leaves your browser until you tap ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ✉ ANSWER EMAIL IN SECONDS Open a message in Gmail or Outlook, point at it, and tap Draft reply. Glimpsa writes the response for you. Too long? Tap Shorter. Too blunt? Friendlier. Need it formal? One tap. Then Insert drops it straight into your reply box, with no copy-paste. Glimpsa can also summarize a long thread or pull out the action items, so nothing slips. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ⚡ SELECT ANYTHING. GET AN ANSWER. Highlight text and a small "Ask Glimpsa" chip appears, offering only the actions that fit: • Explain: dense paragraphs and jargon, in plain English • Summarize: long articles cut down to what matters • Translate: into your language, instantly • Ask…: anything else, in your own words Right-click for more. Ask about an image, check whether a link is safe, copy a table as clean CSV, find the bug in a code snippet, or right-click empty space to summarize the whole page. Ask follow-ups in the same panel. Not deep enough? "Go deeper" re-answers with a stronger model. Prefer the keyboard? Select and press Alt+A. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ✓ AI THAT CHECKS ITS OWN WORK Most AI assistants generate an answer and leave it there. Glimpsa can also verify it. Tap Verify and the answer is re-checked against live web sources, claim by claim. Each claim comes back marked: ✓ Supported: found in a real source, with the link ⚠ Unverified: nothing solid either way ✗ Contradicted: the sources disagree "Sounds confident" and "is correct" are not the same thing, and you're the one who has to act on it. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ▤ A SIDEBAR FOR THE WHOLE PAGE Click the toolbar icon to dock Glimpsa beside any page: • Summarize the page, or pull out the key points • Translate a page that isn't in your language • Drop in a screenshot or scan and ask what's in it • Attach a PDF and chat with it. The text is extracted on your own computer. • Turn any of it into an email draft ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ⛨ PRIVATE BY DESIGN This is how Glimpsa is built, not just a policy. • Selecting text and hovering never touch the network. Nothing is sent until you tap an action. • With your own Anthropic API key, requests go straight from your browser to Anthropic. There is no Glimpsa server in between and nothing to store. • With no key, we relay your request to Anthropic for you. That's how the free trial and free sign-in work. We count requests, never content: your prompts and answers are never stored. • Calm by default. The chip only appears when you select text, right-click, or pause on an image or an open email. You can switch it off on any site. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ◈ NO LOCK-IN Built on Claude, and it can run on your own key. It isn't tied to any one browser company, and it doesn't track your reading to sell you anything. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ▸ PRICING FREE • 3 answers to try, with no sign-up, no key and no setup • Sign in for 3 free answers every day • Or bring your own Anthropic key for unlimited, fully private use PRO, $9.99/month • Verify: fact-check answers against live sources • Go deeper with a stronger model • Gmail and Outlook tone chips and one-click Insert • PDF and document chat • Your own custom prompts as one-tap actions • Works either way: on our servers with a generous monthly quota and no key to manage, or on your own key, unlimited and private Cancel anytime. Full refund within 14 days, no questions asked. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Install Glimpsa, highlight a sentence, and the answer appears right where you're reading. Built on Claude. Not affiliated with Anthropic, Google or Microsoft.
