The Brightwave Chrome extension brings Brightwave into browser-based research workflows. Use it when source material already lives on the web: company pages, filings, investor-relations sites, news articles, portals, and internal web tools.
The Chrome extension is currently in research preview. Capabilities, supported sites, and review behavior may change as we learn from usage and feedback.
Getting started
The extension is available as a soft launch in the Chrome Web Store. Install Brightwave for Chrome, then sign in with your Brightwave account and open the extension from the Chrome toolbar.
The extension requires a Brightwave account, Google Chrome, and an active internet connection.
How it works
The extension lets you send browser context into Brightwave without switching away from the page you are researching. After you choose what to share, Brightwave can use the page URL, title, selected text, and captured page content as context for a chat or agent workflow.
Use the extension to summarize a page, extract key facts, capture selected passages, or add web material to a project with source attribution preserved.
Browser research
The extension is designed for web-first research:
- Capture pages — add the current page to a Brightwave project so the source can be reused in later chats and agent runs
- Send selected text — highlight a passage and send it to Brightwave with page context attached
- Summarize web context — ask Brightwave to summarize or extract key facts from the page you are viewing
- Continue in projects — move browser findings into project chats and agent workflows alongside uploaded documents and connected sources
Research preview expectations
Because the extension is in research preview, some sites and workflows may behave differently depending on page structure, authentication, browser settings, and site restrictions. Review extracted facts against the original page before using them in final work.
The preview is intended to help us refine capture quality, permissions, attribution, and handoff into Brightwave projects.
