In-depth safety analysis
This extension requests permissions to read and modify data on websites you actively visit (activeTab and scripting), which is standard for a web scraper that needs to extract or interact with page content. It also asks for identity and identity.email, which can access your Google account email address—likely for user authentication or to link a scraping session to an account, though this is not strictly required for all scraping tools.
Developer tools that can read and manipulate page content carry inherent risks. A careful user should understand that any extension with scripting access can technically see or alter data on pages you browse, including form inputs or private information. For web scrapers, it's important to verify that the tool only activates on sites you intend to scrape and that you trust the publisher with any data that passes through the extension.
This extension's strongest safety dimension is Data & Privacy, with a high score reflecting the developer's declared practices that data is not sold or used for unrelated purposes. The weakest dimension is Publisher & Identity, which suggests limited public information or verifiable history about the publisher, making it harder to assess long-term trustworthiness. The overall community reputation is moderate, and the extension has a reasonable number of users and ratings.
AI-assisted analysis of the documented signals above (permissions, store data, privacy practices) — explains what they mean and the risks typical for this category. Not a hands-on test.

Public records identify the publisher, but no individual founders or a separate registered company are named — which is what holds the Publisher & Identity score back. Less public information about who operates an extension means less you can verify about their long-term accountability.
