DEMO / RECORDING
Overview & result
Smart Find adds question-based search to a web page. Jev scores short passages against the question; extension code highlights matching text and lets the reader jump between results. It does not generate a new answer.
From the original post
I built Smart Find: Ctrl+F, but for questions.
Ask any web page a question and it jumps you to the passages that answer it. Powered by Jev, each search takes under a second and costs less than a cent.
Open source Chrome extension
https://github.com/eduardoalba00/smart-find
How Jev fits in the loop
- The extension extracts page passages with their section context and prioritizes passages nearest the viewport.
- Jev scores passages as unrelated, related or directly answering the question, with eight score questions per request.
- Extension code normalizes scores, highlights matching passages and navigates between results.
- A service-worker cache reuses scores for repeated question and passage text; API failures are shown to the reader.
How to reproduce
- Follow the repository README: download the repository, enable Chrome Developer mode and Load unpacked with the extension folder.
- Enter your own TypeSafe API key in extension options. Page-text searches incur API charges.
- Open a web page and use Ctrl+Shift+Space or the toolbar button; enter a question and press Enter.
- Use the arrow keys to select a match and Enter to jump; Esc closes the search.
Why this build matters
Reduces time spent scanning a long page when a question cannot be expressed as an exact keyword.
Limitations
- Source, recorded demonstration and code reviewed; extension not installed and results not independently reproduced.
- The author reports sub-second searches and less than a cent per search; these are not independently measured guarantees.
- Page text is sent to TypeSafe when searching. The API key is stored in the browser.
- Results depend on extracted page text and model scores. A match is not a generated or independently verified answer.
