AnswerHoard Firefox

AnswerHoard

By: spdev
WIP: Save what you typed on job applications. AnswerHoard stores field labels and answers locally in Firefox, with optional JSON export. Built for privacy—no cloud, no accounts, no telemetry. (~80% page detection; some fields may be missed)

Features & Capabilities

Status (work in progress) AnswerHoard is under active development. It should be useful today, but it is not a finished product. Expect rough edges, false negatives (pages where nothing is captured), and changes in future versions.

What it does When you use job application sites, AnswerHoard tries to detect application-style forms and save a local snapshot of what you entered: field labels or questions and your answers (including many radios/checkboxes). File fields are recorded by filename only, not file contents. You can export your saved history as JSON from the settings page.

Detection accuracy (important) Application-page detection is currently working for around 8 of 10 applications. Many common ATS flows work, but some sites or frames will not be detected, and some fields may be missing from a snapshot even when the page is detected (labels, dynamic widgets, unusual DOM structures, timing, or confidence thresholds). If something critical is missing, treat the snapshot as best-effort, not a legal record.

Privacy (priority #1)

  • No data is saved outside your device by this extension: nothing is uploaded to AnswerHoard or another backend for your answers.
  • Storage uses Firefox extension storage on this profile only.
  • No accounts, no cloud sync, no telemetry in the add-on.

Because everything is local, saved applications do not follow you across devices. A different computer, phone, or another Firefox profile will not show what you saved here. Only this device/profile has that data unless you export the JSON and move it yourself.

Permissions (why they exist) Broad site access and frame-related permissions are used so the extension can run on many career domains and reach embedded apply forms (common in ATS iframes). That access is used for detection and capture into local storage, not for shipping your answers to a remote server.

Privacy policy See the linked privacy policy for what is stored, how long it stays, and how export works.

Is AnswerHoard Safe?

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.

AnswerHoard requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. 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 Add-ons Store, 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.

AnswerHoard is recently added, and hasn't been around long enough for us to gather enough data to accurately assess its risk level.
