I built "StarSkew". A privacy-light Amazon review analysis tool. Right now, Chrome and Edge extensions are available.

The extension displays a small feedback box on the Amazon product page, giving you an easy "red/yellow/green" rating for the product's reviews.

In its initial version, it simply checks the average rating, review count, rating distribution, and review velocity. It doesn't analyze review text and doesn't collect any browser history.

Happy to answer any questions!

I needed an AI agent that understands my work better (meetings, notes, chats and lives where I access the web) and gives me flexibility to use the model of choice. So, I built this and I am a 100x engineer now.

A few features to highlight.

- You bring your own Agent (Codex, claude code etc) or local models or in-browser models or remote models - A live meeting assistant. You got to try to this to see the power of it - A local note taking app where AI Agents live - Voice to Text (all local) - NER and PII redaction before sending data to agents, models - Search across your chats, notes and meetings - Try asking drawing stuff on excalidraw ot tldr draw in browser act mode - in-built MCP hub you can add - Bring your own CLI agent (pi, opencode etc)

Complete flexibility on which model, agent you want to send each message to while we don't track any data. Its Open source for you to validate all the privacy claims to build your trust

You just need the browser extension and associated npm packages to build the bridge between your AI agents/models and the extension. Give it a try.

Given the expansion of the fed/state/local/corporate surveillance net, do you find yourself expressing yourself less freely on the internet than you did five years ago?
