Glimpsa
Privacy-first · bring your own key

AI at your cursor. And in your sidebar.

Select text or right-click any image, link, or paragraph for an instant, context-aware answer — streamed right where you're reading. Or dock the sidebar to chat about the whole page, a screenshot, or a PDF.

Free to start — no sign-up, no key. See pricing

One gesture. An answer.

No tab-switching, no copy-paste. Glimpsa reads the context under your cursor and only ever calls the model when you tap an action.

Select or right-click

Highlight a phrase, or right-click an image, link, table, or email. A small chip appears with the actions that fit what you picked.

Explain · Summarize · Translate

Explain a term, summarize a passage, translate into your language, identify an image, draft a reply, extract a table — context-aware, every time.

Follow up & go deeper

Ask follow-ups in the same popover, upgrade any answer to a stronger model, copy it, or drop a drafted reply straight into Gmail.

The difference

Answers you can check.

Generic assistants generate. Glimpsa can verify. Tap Verify and the answer is re-checked against live web sources — claim by claim — and marked ✓ Supported, ⚠ Unverified, or ✗ Contradicted, each with a source link. It's the trust layer a horizontal tool won't build.

Privacy-first

Bring your own Anthropic key and content goes straight from your browser to Anthropic — there's no backend in the loop. On managed plans we proxy the request but never store your prompts or answers.

Model-agnostic

Built on Claude, your key, no platform lock-in. Not wired to any one browser vendor's ecosystem.

Calm by default

The chip only appears on selection or right-click. Nothing leaves your machine until you tap an action. Disable it per-site whenever you like.

FAQ

Do I need an API key?
Not to start — sign in and you get free managed asks. For unlimited free use, paste your own Anthropic key in the extension's Options.
Is my content private?
With your own key, content goes straight to Anthropic and never reaches us. On managed plans we relay the request to Anthropic but never store your prompts or answers — we count requests, not text. See our Privacy Policy.
What's the verification layer?
A one-tap re-check of an answer against live web sources, scored claim by claim with links — so you can trust what you act on.
How do I cancel?
Subscriptions are billed through Paddle; cancel anytime and you keep access until the period ends.
