BETA: Evipedia Browser Extension
Annoyed of manualy decoding a supplement label with noumerous compounds, reading a blog post about some therapy, or an X-post that name-drops a peptide — and having to look up every item manually?
Don’t look any further. The Evipedia browser extension has you sorted.
It scans whatever page you’re on, recognizes any intervention Evipedia covers, and underlines it right there in the text. Hover for an instant evidence summary, or click through to the full review — no more switching tabs to look things up by hand.
The extension currently recognises 3,700+ terms across 500+ evidence reviews.

Chrome Installation
During the beta, the extension isn’t on the Chrome Web Store yet — it has to be installed manually as an unpacked extension:
- Download evipedia-chrome.zip and unzip it.
- Open
chrome://extensionsin Chrome. - Turn on Developer mode (top-right toggle).
- Click Load unpacked and select the unzipped
evipedia-chromefolder (the one containingmanifest.json). - The Evipedia icon appears in your toolbar — you’re set.
Requires Chrome 105 or later.
Chrome may re-disable manually loaded extensions after a restart; if that happens, just toggle it back on from chrome://extensions.
Firefox Installation
During the beta, the Firefox build installs only temporarily — the extension is removed when Firefox restarts, so these steps have to be repeated each session. (A permanent, auto-updating install via the Firefox Add-ons gallery is coming soon.)
- Download evipedia-firefox.zip and unzip it.
- Open
about:debugging#/runtime/this-firefoxin Firefox. - Click Load Temporary Add-on… and select the
manifest.jsoninside the unzippedevipedia-firefoxfolder.
Requires Firefox 140 or later.
Safari Installation
During the beta, the Safari build installs only temporarily — the extension is removed when you quit Safari, so steps 2–3 have to be repeated each session:
- Download evipedia-safari.zip and unzip it.
- In Safari, go to Settings → Developer and check Allow unsigned extensions.
- In the same pane, click Add Temporary Extension… and select the unzipped
evipedia-safarifolder. - Go to Settings → Extensions, enable Evipedia, and grant it access to websites.
Requires Safari 17.4 or later.
Once installed, open the live demo page to see the extension highlight terms in action.
What It Looks Like
This is a demo, powered by the same widget the browser extension runs on — a stand-in for any supplement label, blog post, or research write-up you’d normally read.
Hover over any ingredient to see how the extension surfaces an instant evidence summary, right where you’re reading.
Plain Text
Evipedia’s coverage goes well beyond vitamins, into the frontier of rejuvenation — peptides like BPC-157, Low-Level Light Therapy, and Young Plasma Transfusion are all reviewed. The extension surfaces any of them, wherever they turn up.

Ingredient Lists
And here’s the ingredient list of a hair serum — the kind of dense, unreadable label the extension is built for. The Extension highlites all hair-growth relvant compounds and links them to their reviews.

Privacy
Everything runs locally on your machine. The extension reads the text of the pages you visit only in your own browser to find matches — that text is never transmitted. No page content, URLs, browsing history, or personal data is ever sent to Evipedia or anyone else.
Its only network request is a one-time download of the public review index (/reviews.json) from evipedia.ai. All matching, highlighting, and hover cards are computed entirely on-device.
It also never modifies the page’s HTML — highlights are drawn as an overlay, leaving the site exactly as delivered.
Popup controls
Click the Evipedia icon in the browser toolbar to:
- Toggle highlighting globally — on/off for all sites.
- Highlight only once — mark only the first occurrence of each term on a page, instead of every occurrence.
- Toggle highlighting on this site — exclude (or re-include) the current domain.
