Clico is a powerful Browser extension designed to be your ultimate writing and productivity partner. Unlike traditional AI tools that require you to copy and paste text back and forth, Clico lives directly inside your browser. It reads and understands the context of the webpage you are currently viewing, allowing it to perform tasks with an unmatched level of relevance and intelligence.
Hey everyone, Alex from Clico here. We are thrilled to finally introduce Clico to the PH community. We built Clico out of our own frustration with constant tab switching and the repetitive cycle of copying and pasting text into AI tools. We wanted an AI that actually lives where we work and understands the full context of our browser.
We vibe coded this product ourselves, and it gave us that immediate aha moment the first time we used it. We are so excited to bring this to a broader community so you can all experience having an intelligent companion right by your side. We highly recommend trying the @ feature to pull in different tabs as context and the Memo It feature to summarize complex pages in seconds. We cannot wait to hear what you think!
Join our discord at https://discord.gg/yeaVWQ8wzd for more product updates and talk with us directly. We are a small team and trying to figure things out:)

How does this handle complex pages like dashboards or long data filed docs? Congrats on the launch!
Big fan of this direction, AI works best when it lives inside the workflow, not outside it. Congrats on the launch 🚀
The in-browser approach is smart for reducing friction, always a win for user adoption. I'm curious about the specific security model for parsing context directly in the browser, especially with sensitive data.
How does Clico maintain context across multiple sites or tabs, as Becky Gaskell touched upon? This is an area where these tools typically succeed or fail long term.
The context-switching problem is real. I've been working on writing tools myself and the friction of copy-paste to AI just kills momentum. Love that you built this directly into the browser where the work actually happens. The @ feature for pulling in multiple tabs is clever—will definitely try that. Congrats on the launch!
Love Clico's approach to building the personal context layer and helping users utilize it for everyday work, but where would Clico store my personal information? Could it be deployed locally?
Love the idea of AI living inside the browser instead of switching tabs. Does it work well with long-form content like blogs or docs?
This is exceptional man, you're lifesaver, you have no idea how many times I have copy pasted the text from ChatGPT to the comment box!
Congrats on the launch and hitting #1 today! The approach of living directly inside the browser instead of requiring copy-paste into a separate AI tool is a huge UX win — that context switching adds up fast. The @ feature for pulling in content from other tabs sounds really powerful too. As someone who builds Chrome extensions, I know how tricky it is to get reliable content injection across different web apps. How are you handling compatibility with sites that have heavily customized text editors (like Notion or Google Docs)?
Installed it and went through the flow. The product itself works well, but there's a drop-off waiting to happen right after install. You land with four shortcuts to learn, ⌘+O, Double ⌘, Hold ⌘, Highlight, but no clear signal for which one to try first. A new user opens a tab, nothing looks different and within 48 hours the extension is forgotten.
The gap is the bridge between install and first value. One forced first action right after install, pick your strongest use case, put it directly in front of the user, make it the only thing to do in that moment. That would close that gap before the user even has a chance to drift. What does your Day 1 usage rate look like on new installs?
Loving the seamless integration, but how does Clico handle context-switching when multiple tabs are open with different topics? That could be tricky to manage!
Thank you all so much for the incredible support here on PH! Clico is a product built with heart. We realized that our interactions with AI were always so fragmented—constantly switching between tabs just to feed context into an AI tool. It was the number one frustration my team kept bringing up, so we decided to build Clico internally to solve it for ourselves.
The moment our colleagues started using it, the feedback was instant: "Oh my god, this is exactly the productivity tool I’ve been waiting for." Seeing their reaction and those thumbs-up gave us the confidence to open it up to everyone. We truly hope you feel that same sense of ease and excitement in your own workflow.
Without further ado, it’s time to dive in—start using it, and we hope you fall in love with it!
Huge congrats on the launch! I’ve seen how much work went into this, and it’s awesome to see it finally live. Love the concept, and I think a lot of people will find it genuinely useful. Rooting for you today Alex!
Hey PH! We are so excited to finally bring Clico here!
We built Clico because the best AI in the world still made us leave the page to use it. That felt wrong. So we put it inside the page. Plus there's so much more we want to improve, which is exactly why we're here.
Clico is free while we're in beta, and your feedback is what shapes what it becomes. Feel free to join our discord and come build it with us!
Let's clico!
This looks really clean. I like the idea of it living directly in the browser instead of constantly copying things back and forth. That friction adds up more than people realise.
How do you handle context across different tabs or sites? That feels like the bit that makes or breaks tools like this.
Huge thanks for all the support, everyone! Building Clico has been a labor of love, we really wanted to kill the friction of constant tab-switching. If you hit any bugs or have a feature you’re dying to see, drop a note in our Discord or ping us right here. We’re building this for you, so your feedback is literally our roadmap. Stoked to see how you use it to clear the clutter. let’s clico!
