Is Inksprout - AI Social Media Writer safe?

Clean risk

Inksprout - AI Social Media Writer sends pasted URLs and posted social composer text to inksprout.co.

When you paste a standalone URL into supported social publishing editors, the extension sends that URL to inksprout.co/summarize to generate a summary. After you publish or schedule generated content, it sends an analytics event to inksprout.co/activity that includes the URL, the composer text, and the platform.
