Your words never leave your browser. 🚫 No Analytics -- No usage tracking, no event logging, no crash reporting, no telemetry of any kind. 🚫 No External Requests -- Zero network requests. No remote fonts, no CDN scripts, no API calls. Every asset is bundled inside the extension. Disconnect from the internet and it works identically. 🚫 No Ads, No Upsells -- No advertisements, no premium tiers, no subscription prompts. Completely free. 📋 Permission Explanation: contextMenus -- Adds the "Analyze selected text" item to your right-click menu. Without this permission, the context menu feature cannot exist. activeTab -- Injects the analysis modal into the current tab when you trigger the context menu. The extension only accesses the tab you are actively using, only when you explicitly request it. Content scripts on all URLs -- Enables the context menu to work on every webpage. The content script listens for the analysis command and renders the modal. It does not read or modify page content on its own. Three permissions, each essential, each minimal, each justified. 💡 USE CASES ✍️ Writers and Bloggers -- Check word counts against targets before publishing.
