Google Chrome Search Companion
Google is currently working on Search Companion feature on its Chrome browser to add more context on the web.
According to a report by 9to5Google, Google might have already found a way to merge Lens and Chrome in one update.
The search engine giant brings "Search Companion" which aims to yield more searches that the user wants to see when he/she accesses the web.
Some reports say that the new feature can be accessed in Chrome's sidebar. Currently, it's the most popular browser on the planet with 66% desktop browsing sessions, Statcounter reveals.
If you look closely at what Search Companion can do, it's an effective tool to assess the type of data on a website and even give the users an idea about its title and other related metadata.
Scanning for pictures is now made easier with Google Lens. This alone is enough for the user to absorb more context about a particular word on the web.

Is Search Companion the Same with Multisearch?
Somehow, the Search Companion might sound similar to "Multisearch" which became available in Google Lens just in 2022. This feature hastens your searching by using both the image and text to compress the potential results on the search bar.
With the arrival of the new Google Chrome feature, browsing on the internet is faster and more efficient than before. For instance, if you're searching for a specific gadget online, you can lend a hand from Chrome to help you search thousands of results from several tech websites.
At the same time, it's somehow tied up to AI which is currently the most trending word of 2023. With ChatGPT's popularity, it's safe to say that more browsers are jumping to the hype to keep up with what the people need.
Although Google has not yet announced some information about Search Companion, it's certain that the company is dedicated to improving its browser to cater to the needs of many people who depend on it.
More Improvements For Google Search on Desktop
Meanwhile, Search Engine Journal reported that Google's desktop search result now showcased new display features so that users can easily identify the web pages from the ads and other sources.
With that being said, differentiating ads from organic search results is now clearer. It's even better with the added structured data that will increase the accuracy of web page's name on the site.
Introducing these features will most likely improve the user experience of Chrome users especially for those who tend to get confused with online advertisements on the search results.
