What is Lantern - Floating Web Search?

Summon a floating web search bar on top of any app in an instant, with Lantern. Do some quick research with high-quality Google search results, or dive deeper and open websites - all without leaving your workspace.

Lantern helps you get things done faster. Answer questions, find sources, and more in a fraction of the time it takes in your browser. Because Lantern floats above your work, it also helps you maintain your train of thought - as we've all been distracted countless times after leaving our workspaces to open a browser.

All it takes to open Lantern is a simple keyboard shortcut: Option + Space (or one of your choice!). You can also set Lantern to launch automatically at login, to ensure it's ready to go when you need it.

Lantern offers a substantial upgrade over your browser and built-in search tools, while being far cheaper than others like it.

Key Features:

  • Lantern floats above whatever app is open, even in full-screen.
  • Search the web in an instant with high-quality Google results.
  • Open full websites from within the Lantern window.
  • Summon Lantern quickly by hitting Option+Space, or a keyboard shortcut of your choice.
  • Copy results back into your work.
  • Choose to open Lantern at log-in.
