Metric Glance Autor: cach_dies

Browser extension that converts imperial units to metric inline, for the 95% of the world on metric and the scientific minds in the other 5% who'd rather be.

Converts as you read: lengths, weights, volumes, areas, temperature, speed, and dimension lists (like 4 x 3 x 1 in). Converted values get a dotted underline; hover (desktop) or tap (mobile) to see the original, switch between similar units (the three fluid ounces, US vs imperial gallon, ounce vs troy ounce, and so on), or mark a mistake.

🔍 Missed something? Select the text and open the searchable unit picker from the right-click menu or the keyboard shortcut (Ctrl+Alt+M, Cmd+Alt+M on Mac). Remappable in Firefox's Manage Extension Shortcuts.

💰 Rounds awkward prices: $1.99 becomes $2. You set the threshold — how many cents a price may be nudged up before it rounds, so $1.99 can round while $1.50 stays put.
