Is Scalenut: AI powered writer safe?

Clean risk

Scalenut: AI powered writer sends selected webpage text to Scalenut AI generation endpoints.

The extension runs content scripts on all websites and shows a Scalenut toolbar when you select 20-700 characters in editable page content. After you choose writing actions such as rephrase, command, complete, simplify, or templates, it sends the selected text and request fields such as use-case IDs, report_id, and platform to Scalenut's API.
