Concept

The interaction experience aims to create

When you come across a word or phrase that catches your eye on a web page.

  • Look it up.
  • Translate it.
  • Ask AI about it.

Until now, each time meant opening a service, navigating its interface, and bringing your text over.

Selection Command turns that process into two simple steps: select the text, then choose what you want to do.

Select text and run a search or an AI prompt right where you are

Problem

More useful services. More open tabs.

Open a search engine to look something up. Check an unfamiliar word in a dictionary. Ask AI to summarize a long article.
Copy and paste text and URLs from one service to the next.

How many tabs are open in your browser right now?

Before you know it, your browser is full of tabs, and you keep switching between them.
Then comes the work of finding, closing, and managing those tabs.

The more you get out of your browser,
the more steps come between you and what you actually want to do.

Selection Command was built to get that preparation out of the way.

Approach

Start with the text in front of you, rather than a service.

  • Google for search.
  • DeepL for translation.
  • ChatGPT for AI.

Without even thinking about it, we work out which service to use and how to use it.

Selection Command takes that step out of the process.

First, select the text in front of you. Then choose what you want to do from the pop-up menu. There is no need to remember how each service works. One action takes you from opening the service to getting the job done.

Instead of Open a service → Bring your text over, start with Select text → Run a command.

Customize

Make web services your own personal menu.

With Selection Command, you can save services such as search engines, translation tools, and AI summarizers as commands.

  • Add the services you use often.
  • Turn your AI instructions into commands.
  • Arrange them in the order that works for you.

Bring useful web services together in a menu of your own.

Keep the tools you use every day within easy reach.

And you do not have to create everything yourself.

In Selection Command Hub, you can discover commands shared by others and add them to your own menu.

Find a command in the Hub and add it to your menu

Every command you add opens up more possibilities.

Experience

Change how every action begins.

From opening a service and working through its interface,
to choosing what to do with the text in front of you.

That is the browsing experience Selection Command is designed to offer.
