Extension summary

Replace your new tab page with financial stock analysis from the US, UK or AU market and a natural landscape to calm your mind and increase your focus.

This extension (for US, UK and AU primary markets only) also joins the dots between the companies you're reading about (for example) on Bloomberg, and our analysis.

It works by finding and highlighting potential listed companies (from a selected default market) within the news articles you're reading. Then gives you access to our analysis for those companies with one click.

There are 2 ways to trigger the extension: ➤ Visit one of the extension's watched sites (e.g. bloomberg.com, TechCrunch, Forbes, CNBC, plus many more) ➤ Right click the extension's icon in your Chrome toolbar.

By default, it will look to highlight companies from US markets. However, you can update your default market via the extension's options page (left click the extension's icon and select options). You can choose between US, Australian and British markets.

  • Highlighting can be excessive on articles
User reviews
Would be a lot more useful if we could enable it on other sites than the ones predefined by the developers. Also would be really good if we could temporarily disable it on a page; sometimes I find myself at an article that mentions tickers and company names so many times that half the page is highlighted and it makes it impossible to focus on reading it. Also, just because I feel a need to mention it: the claim that it's "AI-powered" seems like buzzword nonsense to me. All it's doing is keyword detection to highlight known company names and tickers. Tell me what AI is needed for and actually doing here?

Would be great if we could define our own watchlist tickers rather than just being able to select between US/UK random market tickers.
