Is LouRead safe?

Clean risk

LouRead sends the word and sentence you select to its own cloud service to fetch an AI-generated definition.

When you select text or use the context-menu lookup, the extension sends the selected word and its surrounding sentence to a LouRead cloud function, which returns a definition shown on the page. The content script is present on all sites but only acts on your selection. Page title and favicon are saved only in local browser history storage.

Where it sends data

Destinations our analysis observed LouRead 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.
