As AI features rapidly proliferate across browsers, many are being introduced as defaults without clear controls or transparency. Shift AI is optional by design, allowing users to decide when, how, and if AI is part of their workflow.<\/p>\n

“AI shouldn’t live in another tab. It should live where you work and it should work on your terms,” said Michael Foucher, Vice President of Product and Customer Success at Shift. “Shift AI is designed to reduce the friction of everyday work while ensuring users stay in control of their data, their experience, and their workflow.”<\/p>\n

AI That Works With You – Not Around You<\/p>\n

Shift AI is an adaptive, context-aware system embedded directly into the browser, while remaining fully under user control. Shift AI introduces capabilities designed to streamline how users navigate tasks, tools, and information:<\/p>\n
