What is Blync?
Blync enhances the browsing experience by allowing users to preview the content behind links directly on the current page, eliminating the need to open numerous tabs. This feature helps maintain focus and reduce information overload by offering an on-demand browser window within the existing tab. Users can trigger previews by hovering, dragging, or clicking on links, with customizable behavior for different websites, contributing to a 'tabless' browsing environment.
The extension incorporates an AI assistant that activates upon text selection or via a keyboard shortcut. This assistant leverages the user's existing AI accounts (supporting ChatGPT, Gemini, and Claude) to provide insights, summaries, or perform searches based on the selected content, displaying results conveniently in a popup or sidebar. Blync prioritizes user control and privacy; it operates entirely locally on the browser, is serverless, and does not track or store user data. Extensive customization options allow users to configure link behavior, AI prompts, action templates, and the extension's visual appearance.
