Use AI to search & ask about your tabs

You can browse with AI Mode side-by-side to ask about your open tabs or files within a side panel or full tab view in Citrio.

About AI Mode side-by-side data privacy

To make it easier to ask about tabs and files, with storage and privacy:

  • The storage time for temporary data, like screenshots, Lens selections, and PDF captures stays available during your session and won’t be saved.
  • To help with revisiting conversations days or weeks later, the titles and URLs of tabs added to a thread are saved for a specific number of months. Even if the original tabs are closed or the temporary screenshots have expired, those sources can still be referenced.
  • All raw data from both public and private URLs are treated with strict confidentiality. This data isn’t used for:
    • Human review
    • Personalize the experience
    • Ad target
    • Training AI models
