This Google patent describes a browser-based contextual search tool that helps users find information related to web content without navigating away from the original page. The system extracts core content from a webpage currently being viewed, generates relevant search suggestions based on that content, and displays those suggestions in a dedicated search area within the browser itself. Users can interact with these suggestions, perform searches, and view results while the original webpage remains visible in a separate display area. The tool integrates multiple search functionalities including text queries, image region searches, and AI-generated content summaries into a single, secure browser interface that cannot be spoofed by third-party websites.
