Hand it a link and it reads the page properly. ## What it does Search finds pages. This reads them. Give your coworker a web address — or let it follow one it found — and it opens the page and pulls out the actual content: the text, the tables, the numbers. Navigation, ads and cookie banners don't come with it. That means it works from what the page really says, not from a summary of a summary. ## When you'd use it * Paste a competitor's pricing page and ask for a comparison against yours * Give it a documentation link and ask it to follow the setup * Drop a news article in chat and ask for the three numbers that matter * Read a public job posting to draft a tailored outreach note * Pull the details out of a supplier's spec page into a table * Check what a page actually claims before you quote it ## Turning it on Open your coworker, choose **Capabilities**, and find **Read web pages** in the Built-in tools list. It's on by default. > **Read web pages** — Open a link and read its content as clean text. The Read web pages row on the Capabilities tab, switched on ## Good to know This reads pages that are open to anyone. Pages behind a sign-in, or ones that need clicking through a few screens first, need [the live browser](/cowork/capabilities/live-browser) instead. Pair it with [Web search](/cowork/capabilities/web-search). Search finds the five pages worth looking at; this reads them. On its own it's still useful whenever you already have the link. ## Common questions Yes. Paste the link, say what you want from it, and your coworker opens it. You don't need any special phrasing. Tables come through as tables, so your coworker can work with the numbers. A chart that's just an image is a picture — it can describe it, but the underlying figures aren't there to read. For documents you already have, upload them instead and your coworker reads them directly — see [Attaching and mentioning files](/cowork/files/attaching-and-mentioning). Some sites block automated readers outright, and some hide everything behind a sign-in. Both are cases for [the live browser](/cowork/capabilities/live-browser). ## Next steps Finding the pages worth reading. When a page needs signing in to. Give it a document instead of a link.
