How it works Brancher extension records your web browsing history and visually represents it as a tree of web pages. When you click a link from page A to page B brancher creates a tree. If you then click a link from page A to page C the app will add another branch to that tree. To open the app click extension popup icon and click “BRANCHER”. You will see a list of your trees, click a tree to open it. We provide a rich set of tools for editing (copy, paste, remove, drag&drop) and sharing a tree.

Platform Brancher is a platform founded on a principal of free exchange of structured information. Each tree is a basic building block of knowledge, a map that helps you navigate through a sea of data. Add trees to your public profile to share latest trends with your followers. Receive the best recommendations from all over the internet.

Personal Browsing Data We have put a range of systems in place to prevent any of your personal data from ever being recorded by the extension. It only records publicly available web pages and stops recording if a web page requires user authentication (logging in) or is otherwise hidden from public access. For example, browsing of an on-online store will create a tree of products but it won’t contain a page for website shopping cart nor any other personal details.

Not working properly. Most of the webpages I visited (after installing the extension) are missing from the history.
