KDSpy is simply amazing! This is a MUST-have tool! The Chrome extension is easy to install. Wesley has done a superb job of compiling comprehensive documentation and videos on how to use KDSpy. I highly recommend watching all of the videos to understand the product thoroughly before use to ensure you'll get the most out of the tool. Aside, there is also a wealth of additional information to kickstart the process of research and self-publishing. Five stars, highly recommended.
