Search Select EN

Search Select — Select anything. Search everything.

Search Select is a fast, privacy-conscious browser extension that makes web research and everyday browsing easier.

Instead of copying text, right-clicking links, or opening image-search tools manually, simply select what you want on a webpage and let Search Select handle the next action.

Find something → Select it → Act on it.

KEY FEATURES

• Select and Search
Select text on supported webpages and quickly search it using your preferred search engine.

• Multi-Item Selection
Select multiple independent items and process them together.

For example:
React
Next.js
GitHub

can be processed as three separate selections.

A continuous selection such as:
100% offline

is treated as one selection rather than individual characters, words, or webpage elements.

• Smart Actions
Search Select provides appropriate actions based on the selected content.

Text → Search
Links → Open or navigate
Images → Image-related search/action
Multiple selections → Process using your configured workflow

• Multiple Search Workflows
Choose how multiple selected items should be handled, including separate searches or combined search workflows where supported.

• Your Preferred Search Engine
Configure your preferred search engine and quickly switch between supported providers.

Search Select supports popular search providers such as Google, Bing, DuckDuckGo, Brave Search, and custom search engines.

• Custom Search Engines
Add your own search-engine template when you want Search Select to work with a search service that isn't included by default.

• Keyboard-Friendly Workflow
Use keyboard shortcuts to activate selection mode and process selections without constantly reaching for the mouse.

• Context Menu Support
Use optional right-click actions for quick access to Search Select functionality.

• Clean, Non-Destructive Selection
Search Select provides its interaction layer without replacing the webpage or permanently modifying website content.

• Customizable Settings
Configure search engines, interface preferences, themes, actions, and other available extension options.

• Local-First Design
Search Select processes its core selection workflow locally in your browser and stores extension configuration locally.

The current version does not include advertising or developer-owned analytics or telemetry.

IMPORTANT PRIVACY NOTE

Search Select does not mean that every piece of information stays on your device.

When you explicitly perform a search, the selected search query is sent to the search provider you chose, such as Google, Bing, DuckDuckGo, Brave Search, or another configured provider.

Those third-party providers have their own privacy policies and data practices.

Search Select does not require an account and does not intentionally collect personal information such as passwords, payment information, or authentication credentials.

WHO IS SEARCH SELECT FOR?

Search Select is useful for:

• Students researching topics online
• Developers searching documentation, code, and technical terms
• Researchers collecting information from multiple webpages
• Writers and creators researching references
• Professionals working with links and online resources
• Anyone who frequently searches text, links, or images while browsing

A FASTER WAY TO RESEARCH

Traditional workflow:

Find text → highlight → copy → open search engine → paste → search

Search Select:

Find text → select → search

Whether you're researching a technical topic, comparing information, opening several links, or quickly searching something you just found, Search Select is designed to reduce unnecessary steps.

PRIVACY & DATA
