PageLens was founded on the idea that when we come across an unfamiliar word, name, phrase or concept on a webpage, we’re too busy or too afraid of getting side-tracked to go look it up in real time. With present solutions, we’d have to leave the page, do a search, sift through the results, and find the answer to our original inquiry.

Generally, not worth the effort.

PageLens helps give context to what you’re reading by providing instant answers using a browser-based solution. With a single click, you can read, see, hear, write, or chat about any topic on any webpage. By highlighting the word or phrase of interest and right clicking, the PageLens player does it all for you! Once you have your answer, just close the PageLens player and continue doing what you were doing without ever missing a beat.

Launched in April, PageLens is seeking user feedback to create a better product that meets users needs by saving time while allowing them quickly dig deeper on topics of interest.
