My Cognitive Bias is a Chrome extension that explains a different cognitive bias every time you open a new tab. Cognitive biases influence our decisions, opinions, and behaviors often without us realizing it, leading to impulsive spending, conformity, and altered beliefs. By increasing awareness of these biases through this extension, users can practice bias correction and improve critical thinking.

Inspired by the Cognitive Bias Codex, this extension draws from trusted sources like Wikipedia to present clear, concise explanations. For users seeking a more advanced tool, BrainyTab.com offers a plugin with cognitive biases, mental models, and dark patterns, along with features like bookmark management and fast search.
