Eastsoft launches AI search engine ‘Alan’ Chrome extension

Eastsoft announced on the 21st that they have released a Google Chrome browser exclusive ‘Alan Chrome Extension’ that makes it even more convenient to use their AI search engine service Alan. Following the release of the Deep Research feature on the 16th, Eastsoft quickly unveiled the Chrome extension program, further enhancing the usability of Alan. The newly released Alan Chrome extension program can be used not only on various search sites such as Google, Naver, Zoom.com, but also on various browsers that support Chrome extension programs such as Microsoft Edge and Naver Whale.

The Alan Chrome extension program operates in the form of a floating widget, helping users intuitively utilize various AI search functions. When users activate Alan, it summarizes the web page they are currently viewing in three lines and highlights important sentences in context. It also generates additional questions to assist users in deeper information exploration.

AI features such as ‘Summary’, ‘Translation’, and ‘Easy Reading’, which are useful for information search, are provided in button form for easy utilization with just one click. Additionally, a bookmark function is provided for efficient search history management.

In particular, this Chrome extension version also supports the YouTube video summary feature that received great feedback from existing Alan users. This feature quickly identifies the key content of the video, provides a script, and enables efficient video exploration. Users can click on a sentence in the script to immediately play the corresponding part of the video.

The YouTube video summary feature generates related questions similar to web search, allowing for additional information exploration. Especially when there is insufficient information in the video, Alan generates higher-quality answers through expanded web searches.

An official from Eastsoft stated, “We planned the Chrome extension version so that more users can intuitively experience Alan,” and expressed the hope that users can experience the innovative search experience provided by the AI search engine service Alan in various environments.

Meanwhile, Alan is a cross-platform service that can also be used on its own web and app (PC, mobile). In its web and app services, users can select optimized models such as ‘Alan V3’ for fast speed, ‘R1’ with enhanced inference capabilities, and ‘Deep Research’ for generating in-depth analysis reports. Additionally, by utilizing the security-enhanced ‘AlayaxLLM’ mode, users can prevent sensitive information leaks and use the service with peace of mind.
