Lytho for Chrome & Microsoft Edge (Workflow)

Works with: Lytho Workflow

Lytho for Chrome and Microsoft Edge makes it easier to bring content from the tools your team already uses into Lytho. Whether you're working in Microsoft Word or PowerPoint, Figma, your CMS, social platforms, or other browser-based tools, you can capture web content and assets and submit them directly to Lytho for review. Existing Lytho permissions are respected, so users can only access and submit content based on the permissions they already have in Lytho.

Teams can also take advantage of the AI Reviewers configured in Lytho directly from the browser, helping them get feedback earlier and avoid unnecessary back and forth. AI Reviewers can check content against your organization’s standards, provide real-time feedback and suggested fixes, and help teams address brand and compliance issues before sending work through formal review. When human input or an audit trail is required, content can continue through your established Lytho review workflows.

Because the extension uses the same AI Reviewers and rules configured in Lytho, your organization’s standards stay consistent across tools and workflows while your team remains in control of final decisions.

Prerequisites

Before using Lytho for Chrome and Microsoft Edge, ensure the following is in place:

  • Your organization uses Lytho Workflow and you have an active user account. Each user connects their own Lytho account using their organization's Lytho subdomain and normal sign-in method, including Single Sign-On (SSO).

  • If you want to use AI Review, AI Reviewers must be configured in your Lytho account. Lytho for Chrome and Microsoft Edge use the same AI Reviewers and rules defined in Lytho. AI Reviewers are not required to capture and submit assets to Lytho from your browser.

How To Use 

Lytho for Chrome and Microsoft Edge both supports two primary actions:

• Review: Check content for brand and regulatory compliance across images, text, and designs

• Submit Proof: Upload and submit assets to Lytho for formal review and approval

Permissions are respected within the extension. Only Lytho team members with appropriate access can submit Proofs. Only users with AI Reviewers will have access to review content. 

 

From the home screen, you can:

• Select a Quick Action button for Review or Submit Proof

• Or use the tabs at the top of the extension to navigate between Review and Submit

Review Content

From the home screen, select Review. 

Choose the type of content you want to evaluate:

• Image: For designs, layouts, and visual assets

• Text: For written content and copy

Review content options

 

For Images, you'll upload an asset using one of the methods outlined in the Uploading Content section below.

 

To review written content, first select the Text tab. 

Text review

 

Add content by highlighting text within your asset in the browser. Once highlighted, a tooltip will appear. Select Review, and the text will automatically populate in the extension.

You can also copy and paste content or type directly into the extension text box.

Once your content is added, select the type of compliance check you’d like to run using the Reviewer dropdown. These options are based on the AI Reviewers configured in Lytho.

Finally, select Review to run the compliance check.

Review results

 

After running a compliance check, your results will be grouped into three finding states:

• Failed: The content does not meet compliance requirements and requires updates.

• Review (Warning): A potential issue was detected, but the AI Reviewer is not fully certain. These should be reviewed carefully, as they may still require updates.

• Pass: The content meets the selected compliance criteria and no issues were detected.

Lytho Pro Tip: Iterate based on compliance check results. Make updates and run your content through the extensions multiple times to ensure it meets brand and regulatory standards.

 

Depending on the finding state you select (Failed, Review, or Pass) additional insights will be available, including:

• Confidence Rating – How certain the AI is in its assessment

• Analysis – Explanation of why the content passed or was flagged

• Flagged Items – Specific sections of content that were identified

• Suggested Fix – Recommended updates to resolve issues

 

Within all finding states, you have the option to Export PDF, which downloads a version of the compliance report. This report includes the asset reviewed along with insights across each finding state.

Or select + New Submission to return to the Submit panel and upload another asset.

Submitting an asset does not send the Proof for review. This action only adds the asset to the proof. To route and send the Proof for approval, open the associated Proof in Lytho and follow your review workflow.
 

Uploading Content 

Whether you are reviewing content or submitting a Proof, the options for uploading content are the same. Use one of the following methods:

• Drag and drop a file into the upload area

• Select the upload area to choose a file from your device

• Use the Screen capture icon:

• Select Area: Draw a region to capture a specific portion of the screen

• Visible Tab: Capture the content currently visible in your browser

• Full Page: Capture the entire scrollable page

• Select the Link icon to enter a URL

Lytho Pro Tip: While each submission includes one asset, you can continue adding to the same Proof by submitting additional assets separately.

Where Can I Use Lytho for Chrome and Microsoft Edge

Lytho for Chrome and Microsoft Edge works anywhere you can access content in your browser — so you can review or submit assets without disrupting your workflow.

 

Common use cases include:

• Office 365 (Web Apps) – Review Word documents, presentations, or shared files directly in your browser to catch issues before sharing

• Google Workspace – Validate content in Google Docs or Slides before publishing or stakeholder review

• Design Tools (Figma, Canva, etc.) – Capture mockups, layouts, and visual assets for compliance review without exporting files

• Canva users can also leverage direct integration to streamline review and submission workflows

• Email & Marketing Platforms – Review emails, landing pages, and campaign content before launch to avoid last-minute changes

• ChatGPT, Claude, or AI-generated content – Validate AI-generated copy to ensure it aligns with brand and regulatory standards

• Gated or internal websites – Capture and review content that isn’t easily downloadable or accessible outside your browser

 

Using the extensions directly within these tools helps you catch issues earlier, reduce rework, and move faster — without needing to switch platforms or restart the review process.
