About Drag Search Pro

Drag Search Pro ============================================================ ⚡ One-line Description ============================================================ Select text and drag once to search, translate with AI, ask AI, or open multiple search results. Text inside images can also be extracted with screenshot OCR. ============================================================ 📣 Detailed Description ============================================================ Drag Search Pro is a Chrome productivity extension built for frequent searching, research, foreign-language reading, academic lookup, and multi-site comparison. It turns a repetitive workflow: Copy text → Open a new tab → Paste → Press Enter into a faster gesture: Select text → Drag in a direction → Search, translate, or ask AI instantly You can bind up, down, left, right, and even 8 drag directions to different search engines, AI translation, AI Q&A, or search groups. You can also select text and press number keys 1-9 to search quickly. When text cannot be selected, such as text inside images, video frames, screenshots, or locked-down webpages, Screenshot OCR can recognize it locally so you can continue searching, translating, or asking AI. ============================================================ 🚀 Why Install It ============================================================ 🚀 Less copy and paste Select text and drag once. Search results open immediately, without repeatedly copying, switching tabs, pasting, and pressing Enter. 🧭 Directions become shortcuts Drag up for Google, right for Zhihu, down for AI translation, left for AI Q&A. Configure each direction the way you like. 🔎 Search multiple sites with one gesture Search groups can open multiple results at once, such as GitHub + Stack Overflow + MDN, or Google Scholar + arXiv + Semantic Scholar. 🤖 In-page AI translation (AI model configuration required) Stay on the current page and view translation results directly in the webpage. Useful for reading foreign-language articles, documents, papers, and technical references. 💬 In-page AI Q&A (AI model configuration required) Use selected text as context, then ask follow-up questions, summarize, explain, or extract key points with multi-turn conversation support. 🖼 Screenshot OCR search Text in images, video subtitles, and screenshots can be selected by area, recognized locally, and then used for search, translation, or AI Q&A. Screenshot OCR is experimental and must be enabled in Settings. Recognition quality may vary depending on image clarity, fonts, and background. 🔓 Unlock mouse drag and right click Temporarily restore selection, dragging, copying, and right-click behavior on pages that block them. 🧩 100+ built-in search engines Covers general search, AI search, development, academic research, shopping, social media, translation, video, maps, and more. 🔐 Local-first privacy design Search history stays on your device. Screenshot OCR runs locally. AI features only send selected text to the AI endpoint you configure when you actively trigger them; content is not uploaded to the developer's server. ============================================================ ❤️ Product Intention ============================================================ The goal is to make searching, translating, and asking questions lighter, faster, and smoother. Select text, drag once. Search, translate, ask AI, and check multiple sites in one step. Author: LaoQi
