━━━ PRIVACY ━━━

🔒 NO ACCOUNT REQUIRED
Just install and go. No email, no signup, no "verify your email to continue."

🔒 NO TRACKING
Zero analytics. Zero telemetry. Zero crash reports. We don't see anything.

🔒 YOUR DATA STAYS YOURS
All data stored locally in your browser. Nothing on our servers.

🔒 AI KEYS STAY PRIVATE
Your API key goes DIRECTLY to your AI provider. We never see it.

🔒 GITHUB SYNC = YOUR TOKEN
GitHub backup uses YOUR personal access token stored in YOUR browser. We never see it.

━━━ THE FRUSTRATION THIS SOLVES ━━━

I was debugging an API at 11pm.
Postman wanted to verify my email. Again.

So I built a Chrome extension that captures every request my browser makes. No account. No login. No "sorry, free tier requires email verification."

It's just a Chrome extension. Open it. Done.
