Free check · asks Claude live while ChatGPT is paused, with a second opinion from Perplexity

AI visibility checker for Chrome extensions

People looking for a browser add-on now ask an assistant before they search the Chrome Web Store. Enter your extension and the task it handles. We ask Claude, with Perplexity as a second opinion, three questions and show which extensions it recommended.

The task as a user says it: "saving LinkedIn profiles to a CRM", "checking grammar in Gmail", "blocking distracting sites".

Asks ChatGPT (or Claude, Gemini or Perplexity if ChatGPT is unavailable), then Perplexity for a second opinion. Free, no account, about a minute. Add your website and a link to it counts too.

The questions the check will ask

  1. Which Chrome extensions specialize in summarizing YouTube videos?
  2. Which free Chrome extensions specialize in summarizing YouTube videos without asking for access to every site?
  3. Which Chrome extensions specialize in summarizing YouTube videos and still work well on a slow laptop?

ChatGPT (or Claude, Gemini or Perplexity if ChatGPT is unavailable), then Perplexity for a second opinion searches the web for each answer. An answer to the same question is shared for 7 days.

Questions people ask AI before they install an extension

Extension questions are short and practical. They name the task, the site it happens on and often a worry about privacy or price, and an assistant answers with the extensions its sources mention for that task.

  • Which Chrome extensions specialize in finding email addresses on LinkedIn?
  • What is a good Chrome extension to translate a whole web page while keeping the layout?
  • Which extensions add AI replies to Gmail without reading all my mail?
  • Which Chrome extensions specialize in saving web articles to Notion?
  • Is there a Chrome extension that tracks price drops on Amazon and is not full of ads?
  • Which Chrome extensions help with focus by blocking social media during work hours?
  • What is the best Chrome extension for taking full-page screenshots and annotating them?

The check asks 3. On Growth, Rankli asks 50 of yours every week on Claude and Gemini.

What an assistant reads before it recommends an extension

An assistant answering an extension question searches the web. It reads Chrome Web Store listings, the developer’s site, "best extensions for" roundups and community threads, and names the extensions they tie to the task.

  • A store listing that names the task in its first line

    The Chrome Web Store summary is one of the first pages found for an extension. "Summarize any YouTube video in one click" matches a question. A brand slogan in that line leaves the assistant with nothing to match.

  • A website beyond the store listing

    A small site with a page for each task the extension handles, the sites it works on and how it treats data gives an assistant more to read than the store listing alone, and something to link.

  • Permissions explained in plain words

    People ask which extensions are safe. A page that says which permissions you request, why, and what never leaves the browser answers that question, as long as every line of it matches what the extension actually does.

  • Mentions in roundups and threads

    Roundup posts and community threads where people swap extension tips are sources an assistant reads for "which extension" questions. Being described there for the same task your listing names makes the match stronger.

What three questions tell an extension developer, and what they leave out

  • It checks one task per run. Extensions that do several jobs should check each, because each task brings its own rivals.
  • Growth tracks 50 questions a week across your tasks and rivals, and asks again 7 and 14 days after each new page goes live.
  • For now it asks Claude, with Perplexity as a second opinion, and says which assistant gave each answer (ChatGPT resumes once our OpenAI access is restored). ChatGPT and Gemini can name other businesses for the same question.
  • It does not measure your Chrome Web Store ranking or installs. It shows only whether an assistant named your extension.

Frequently asked questions

Why do AI assistants recommend other extensions for my task?

Their search found listings and posts that tie those extensions to the task in plain words. If your listing leads with a slogan, there is little to match. Rankli shows the questions you lose and writes the pages that answer them.

Does an assistant read the Chrome Web Store listing?

Listings are public pages and often appear in its search results, so the summary and description matter. Your own site gives it more to read. Rankli checks that both describe the same task.

Can a small extension be named next to big ones?

For specific tasks, yes. Broad questions tend to bring the best-known extensions, but a narrow task is often answered from the most specific page found. Rankli helps you write that page.

Which questions should an extension developer track?

Questions by task, by site the task happens on, by privacy concern and by rival extension. Rankli drafts the list from your listing and site, and you can add your own.

Is the Chrome extension check free?

Free, with no account and no email. The 7-day free trial asks Claude and Gemini up to 50 questions people ask about your task.
