Resurface (Contextual History Search)

Search your browsing history in natural language — fully on-device, private.

Ever tried to find a page you visited but can't remember the exact title or URL? Resurface lets you search your browsing history the way you actually think — in plain English. Just describe what you remember: "the article about React hooks I read last week" "gold ETF comparison I saw on some finance site" "Disease i was looking for yesterday and relevant medicines" ────────────────────────────── HOW IT WORKS ────────────────────────────── As you browse, Resurface quietly reads and indexes every page you visit — title, content, and meaning. When you search, it uses on-device AI to understand what you're looking for, not just match keywords. It combines semantic vector search with keyword matching to surface the most relevant pages from your history. ────────────────────────────── 100% PRIVATE — YOUR DATA NEVER LEAVES YOUR DEVICE ────────────────────────────── This is not a cloud service. Everything runs locally inside Chrome: • Page content is stored in your browser's IndexedDB • AI understanding uses Gemini Nano (Chrome's built-in on-device model) • Embeddings are generated locally via Transformers.js • No data is sent to any server — ever • No account required, no sign-in, no tracking Your browsing history is yours.
