WebMCP is a new technology that allows AI agents to interact with web pages more directly. It works by turning web pages into MCP (Model Context Protocol) servers via a Chrome extension. This enables agents to understand and manipulate web content in a structured way, potentially improving efficiency and user experience.
The technology, backed by Google and Microsoft, is designed to work alongside human users, allowing them to ask agents questions about the page they are viewing. WebMCP uses a Declarative API for standard actions and an Imperative API for more complex tasks. Early experiments demonstrate the ability to query web pages and receive structured data back.
Agentic AI is beginning to reshape malware detection and broader security operations. These systems are being used not to replace humans, but to take on the lower value jobs that have historically tied up analysts — from triaging alerts to reverse-engineering suspicious files.
A recent TechRadar poll found that Grammarly has emerged as a surprise hit among AI tools, with 584 monthly users. ChatGPT remains the most popular tool, while Microsoft Copilot and Google Gemini also showed strong results.
