Patrick Bushe · May 1, 2026
Patrick Bushe's Search Cleaner is the tool for this. It hides Google's AI Overview by default, and you can switch on any of 24 other sections to hide: ads, shopping carousels, deals, videos, short videos, "People also ask", "Things to know", the knowledge panel and more. It works on google.com search pages in Chrome and leaves the regular results in place.
