A few good
questions.
Still curious about something?
Let’s talk
What exactly is Lucid?
Lucid is a Chrome extension that helps you understand unfamiliar words and jargon while you browse. Get explanations in context, discover jargon on a page, and collect new terms in your personal lexicon.
How is this different from looking up a word?
A dictionary gives you a definition. Lucid uses the text around a word to explain what it means in the article you’re reading. The explanation appears right on the page, so you can keep your train of thought.
Can I try it for free?
Yes. Install the extension and create an account to try Lucid with free daily usage. When you want unlimited explanations and jargon detection, the Pro plan is $5 per month.
Where do my saved words go?
Words you save with the extension become part of your personal lexicon, available in your Lucid dashboard.
Which browser do I need?
Lucid is available for Google Chrome on desktop through the Chrome Web Store. Open this page on your computer to install the extension and start reading with Lucid.
There’s a whole world
to make sense of.
Go on. Read something new.
