User reviews

Requires third party permissions to be on for any site you want to look up, otherwise it fails and gets stuck on an endless login screen loop, even though I'm logged into the website in the same browser.

Works half of the times

OK when it works (although copy & pasting name of company / person / etc. in CrunchBase in way more useful. In the first week or two it did not work for me half the time, and now it has stopped working completely.
