Is Checker Plus for Gmail™ safe?
Checker Plus for Gmail monitors your Gmail inbox and, when AI Compose is used, transmits email subject and reply text to a vendor-operated cloud proxy.
The extension connects to Gmail to surface notifications and lets users read, delete, and compose emails without opening Gmail in a tab. When the optional AI Compose feature is invoked, the extension reads the current email subject and reply body from the Gmail DOM, applies a lightweight sanitization pass to strip recognizable personal tokens (phone numbers, SSNs, credit-card patterns), then sends the data as an obfuscated payload to a Google Cloud Run endpoint operated by the developer. The AI-generated draft is returned and inserted into the composer.

Shared hosts - 7 hostnames
Hostnames hardcoded in this extension that few other listings call. That can mean one operator behind both, and it can equally mean a small shared vendor, so it is context rather than a conclusion. Hosts that many listings call are left out: they are services, not connections.

What it can do
Permissions this extension asks for, as declared in version 36.6. Asking for a permission is not a finding on its own - it is what the extension can do if it chooses to.

Where it sends data
Destinations our analysis observed Checker Plus for Gmail™ contacting. Sending data somewhere is not a finding on its own - an extension that syncs your settings has to talk to its own server - but it is where your data can go, and who else it goes to.
