The Amazon Brand Detector browser extension empowers shoppers by revealing Amazon-owned brands and exclusive products while they browse online. Amazon controls over 150 registered brands and numerous exclusive deals, yet often these affiliations are not clearly disclosed to consumers. This tool highlights such products in orange across Amazon websites including the U.S., Canada, UK, Germany, India, Japan, Australia, and more.

Designed to bring clarity and transparency, the extension enhances your shopping experience without tracking your personal data or activity. Whether you're on Amazon.com or Amazon Smile, it easily identifies hidden brand affiliations so you can make informed purchase decisions.

Extension safety

Risk impact

Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Amazon Brand Detector requires a lot of sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk likelihood

Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Browser Add-ons, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.

Amazon Brand Detector has earned a fairly good reputation and likely can be trusted.
