GovLens – Universal Government Portal Reader

GovLens turns government portals into something you can actually read. It works on any country's government website - Indian gov.in, UK gov.uk, US gov, Canadian gc.ca, EU europa.eu, Australian gov.au, plus 20 more. The moment you land on one, a side panel opens with four tools. TRANSLATE the page into your language. 100+ languages supported, including Indian regional ones most translators ignore - Bhojpuri, Awadhi, Magahi, Maithili, Tulu, Mizo, Khasi, Bodo, Santali, and even historic Kaithi and Tirhuta scripts for old documents. No account needed. Uses your browser's built-in AI by default and falls back to free Google Translate. An optional Anthropic API key gives premium quality but is not required. NAVIGATE the page structure. Every section heading, every form (with field count), every downloadable PDF, every navigation menu - all listed in one panel. Click anything to jump straight to it with a flash highlight. SEARCH across languages. Type your query in any language. GovLens translates it to the page's language, finds the matches, and shows you each one with the section it came from. Click any result to scroll to that exact occurrence on the page - the page pulses red on the match for four seconds so your eye finds it instantly. SCORE the page. A 0 to 100 usability grade across eight axes - accessibility, navigation, readability, form usability, multilingual support, content clarity, mobile-friendliness, trust signals. Surfaces top issues with concrete fixes. Useful as a sniff test before you spend an hour fighting with a bad portal. Plus quality-of-life extras. Hover any acronym (PAN, GSTIN, HMRC, NIN, SSN, FAFSA, EPF, NHS, IRS) for a plain English explanation. Every keystroke into a government form is auto-saved locally - if your session times out, restore your draft with one click. Floating in-page search bar. Searchable language picker that lets you filter 100+ languages by name, native script, or code. Why you would install this: - You speak a language the government site does not support - You are filing taxes, applying for a passport, or checking a scheme and the form keeps timing you out - You are stuck deciphering bureaucratic acronyms - You cannot find the actual application page in a maze of menus - You are a non-native speaker who needs forms simplified - You are an accessibility user trying to use sites that do not follow basic web standards …
