PageLens Is Now Available on Microsoft Edge Add-ons

PageLens has reached an important Kanverse milestone: it is now publicly available through Microsoft Edge Add-ons.

PageLens is a local-first webpage intelligence and security inspection tool designed to make complex webpage behaviour easier to understand.

Instead of simply telling users whether a page is "safe" or "dangerous", PageLens exposes signals that deserve attention and gives users more information before they decide what to trust.

What PageLens Can Inspect

PageLens can help examine:

• Webpage scripts and external connections
• Redirects and linked resources
• Known tracker indicators
• Hidden or unusual interactive elements
• Webpage structure and behaviour
• Page DNA information

Its inspection tools include:

• Scan Page
• Hidden-Layer Reveal
• X-Ray Mode
• Point & Ask
• Page DNA

Local-First Approach

PageLens was designed around a local-first philosophy.

Webpage inspection happens primarily inside the browser, while the Kanverse PageLens control infrastructure is used for managed activation, validation and feature control.

PageLens does not claim that a finding proves a website is malicious or safe. Findings are informational signals intended to help users investigate and understand webpage behaviour.

From Prototype to Public Release

PageLens began as a Kanverse experiment in making webpage security information understandable to ordinary users.

It has now progressed from prototype and testing to a publicly distributed Microsoft Edge extension.

This is also an important step for Kanverse: moving another project beyond demonstration and into software that people can install and use.
