About Briefly

Briefly revolutionizes how you interact with links. Hover over any link to instantly preview its content in a discreet, floating frame. This saves you time by avoiding unnecessary tab switching and keeps your Browse fluid. Customize preview size and position (near cursor or right-aligned). Briefly intelligently skips messenger links (Telegram, WhatsApp) and sites with native previews (Wikipedia), ensuring a seamless experience. Enhance your Browse efficiency and focus without interruptions.
