Google Docs Add-on Now Available - Seamlessly Tag DSA Infringements While You Write

August 23, 2025 🤝 Community by Amaury

We are excited to announce the release of the RADAR for Google Docs add-on, bringing the RADAR framework directly into your collaborative document workflow.

About the Add-on

RADAR for Google Docs enables real-time categorisation of potential DSA infringements within your documents. As you draft reports, analyses, or documentation, you can search and insert RADAR tags inline, ensuring consistent categorisation across your team's work. The add-on connects directly to the RADAR framework database, providing instant access to the complete taxonomy of potential violations.

Enhancing Collaborative Documentation

Document creation rarely happens in isolation. Teams investigating platform practices, preparing transparency reports, or documenting online harms often work together across organisations and borders. The RADAR Google Docs add-on ensures everyone uses the same standardised categories, making collaborative assessments more coherent and actionable.

Key capabilities include:

  • Inline tagging: Insert RADAR categories directly into your text as you write
  • Smart search: Find relevant infringement categories through keyword search
  • Team consistency: Ensure all collaborators use standardised RADAR terminology
  • Version tracking: Always access the latest RADAR framework updates
  • Format preservation: Tags integrate naturally with your document formatting

Installation

Access the add-on through the Google Workspace Marketplace. Search for "RADAR DSA Tagger" or visit the marketplace directly. Once installed, the add-on appears in your Google Docs sidebar, ready to assist with categorisation.

Designed For

  • Investigative journalists documenting platform violations across multiple cases
  • Research teams collaborating on DSA impact studies
  • Civil society organisations preparing joint advocacy reports
  • Legal professionals drafting assessments and recommendations
  • Policy analysts tracking implementation across member states
  • Cross-border coalitions working on unified documentation standards

Strengthening European Digital Rights Documentation

The Google Docs add-on represents another step toward making RADAR accessible wherever documentation happens. By embedding categorisation tools directly into widely-used platforms, we lower barriers to structured reporting and strengthen the collective evidence base for digital rights advocacy across Europe.

Your documented observations, properly categorised through RADAR, contribute to a growing body of evidence that helps shape how platforms address harmful content and how regulators understand the digital landscape.

Getting Started

After installation, open any Google Docs document and launch the RADAR add-on from the Extensions menu. The intuitive interface guides you through searching and inserting appropriate tags, with tooltips explaining each category's scope and application.

Join the growing community of organisations using RADAR to bring transparency and structure to DSA documentation. Together, we're building the shared vocabulary needed for effective digital rights protection across Europe.
