It is a mate finder.

It's one of those interesting extensions that solve tactical problems like
crazy, but when you play two versions against each other, they score 50%.

Singular extension is another one.  I can double tactical speed with singular
extension, at the cost of a ply or sometimes two, but the program plays almost
exactly the "well" as it did before.
