Launching Riidact, an on-device PII tool

I have been working on my product for about 3 months and I've finally got it to a point I'm happy with. To be honest, It's not a groundbreaking idea, but the more I built it the more I realized the execution is what actually matters. Just hoping it turns out useful to a few people out there.

It's a browser extension called Riidact. It watches for PII, API keys, and other sensitive stuff before you send it, and flags it (or lets you redact it) so you don't hand over things you didn't mean to. You can create a free account, link the extension, and all events get sent to your dashboard. The content is never sent to a server or anything, its all on-device so Privacy is first. You can even create your own rules so it gets flagged.

The obvious case is AI chats, since everyone's pasting all sorts of things into them these days, but it works on any site or service where you're submitting data. I'm just finishing up the Product Hunt page now and planning to release it on the 7th of August. If there's any interest, You can join the waitlist at https://riidact.com. I also uploaded a quick promo video on the product: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uDMRI3WS8GE
