It's your past - find it fast

Have you ever struggled to find a specific webpage you visited days or even weeks ago? Traditional browser history searches often fall short, returning exact matches for metadata information or partial URL matches. Enter Historease, a revolutionary Google Chrome extension designed to make searching through your browser history a breeze.

Historease locally stores text from each webpage you visit and allows you to rapidly search for semantic similarity, making it much easier to find what you're looking for. Unlike traditional methods, Historease offers a more intuitive and efficient way to navigate your browsing history.

Why Historease is a Game-Changer

Traditional history searches can be frustratingly limited. They often return results based on exact metadata matches or partial URL matches, which might not be helpful if you can't remember the exact title or URL of the page you're looking for. Historease changes the game by using semantic similarity to search through the text of the pages you've visited.

Historease in Action

This means that even if you only remember a few keywords or the general topic of the page, Historease can help you find it quickly and efficiently. With average search times of just 20 milliseconds, Historease rivals industry giants like Algolia and ElasticSearch in terms of speed.

Privacy First

One of the standout features of Historease is its commitment to privacy. Your browsing history never leaves your browser, ensuring that your personal data remains secure. There's no need to share your browsing history with any external databases or servers, giving you peace of mind while you search.

How to Get Started

Getting started with Historease is simple. Just install the extension from the Chrome Web Store, and it will begin storing text from the webpages you visit. When you need to find something, simply open the Historease interface and start typing your search query. The extension will quickly return the most relevant results based on semantic similarity.

Say goodbye to the frustration of traditional browser history searches and hello to a smarter, more efficient way to find what you're looking for. Try Historease today and experience the future of browser history search.
