Extend Safely — Independent Extension Trust Insights

Trust is Earned, Not Given.

I spent 3 months building Ward. I thought the hard part was the code. I was wrong. The hard part was the guy in the coffee shop who took down my flyer.

I contacted librarians and senior center directors—radio silence. To them, "Chrome Extension" is just another word for "Malware." They aren't wrong to be skeptical. Extensions have grown notorious for being sketchy, stealing user data, and injecting ads.

Trust is the single biggest barrier to growth in the extension ecosystem.

Users are scared. Even with 100 reviews, people still wonder: "What are they doing with my browsing history?" This is why independent trust verification matters. Featured verification and word-of-mouth are the only things that break through the noise.

We built Extend Safely to be that independent layer of trust. We provide the credibility your product deserves, so you can stop begging for trust and start showing it.

Fix Barriers to Adoption

Most extensions fail not because of features, but because of a misleading privacy policy or over-reaching manifest permissions. We scan your codebase and policies to find exactly what's scaring users away.
