Arc Search from The Browser Company builds custom web pages summarizing search results for a query in one tap. It is aimed at iOS users wanting instant page digests, with a free feature inside the Arc mobile browser without separate billing. Only available within Arc's mobile ecosystem, not desktop-wide. Editorial teams should verify fit against their compliance and workflow needs before rolling it out broadly.
