What changes on a real Google search page

The same results page before and after applying the built content script and stylesheet in a browser session. The AI Overview and AI Mode tab were hidden while video results remained. This is one observed layout, not an installed-extension success-rate test.

Just the part you want gone.

Targeted hiding

Results stay put

Private by design

Questions, answered.

Can I permanently disable AI Overviews in Google settings?

Google says AI Overviews are a core Search feature and cannot be turned off through a regular setting. Its Web filter shows text-based links without AI Overviews, but also changes the result view. See Google's help article.

Does this extension change my Google account?

No. It changes the visible page in Chrome only. Google still generates the original search page.

Will my other Google tools still work?

The detector is designed to preserve ordinary results and tools. Google can change its page layout, so please report anything it hides incorrectly.

Does it collect my searches?

No. The extension stores only your on/off preferences locally in Chrome.

Make room for the results you came for.
