User Reviews
Users consistently praise BuiltWith for delivering extensive information about websites and for being generally useful. Several reviews describe it as a valuable tool in this addon category, with phrases like great and useful indicating strong positive reception. However, a few reviewers report issues such as captchas interrupting interaction, occasional forbidden lookup messages, and upsell-oriented UI. These concerns are not mentioned by all users and do not appear consistently across reviews. Overall, BuiltWith is perceived as information-rich and helpful, but some users encounter friction during use. Pros
- Gives the most information about a website in this addon category.
- Generally useful and well-received by users.
- Positive user sentiment across multiple reviews and messages labeling it as great or useful.
Cons
Recent reviews
This extension has too many issues:
– When the panel is open the list shown of technologies is too long and verbose. It is difficult to discern between main and secondary libraries and services. You simply give up after so much scrolling down.
– Out of the five tabs shown on the panel only one is free.
– It does not have a dark theme.
– Too often when the panel is opened it shows a captcha where an image of an animal is shown and you have to select the correct animal name. Why?
– The error “This domain provides misleading technology profiles sorry” appears on many websites when trying to use the panel.
There is no point in using this extension. Just use Wappalizer, much better.

Is BuiltWith 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.
BuiltWith requires a few 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 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.
BuiltWith is probably trust-worthy. Prefer other publishers if available. Exercise caution when installing this add-on.
