Is Wakelet safe?

Clean risk

Wakelet sends the active page URL and cleaned page HTML to a CloudFront endpoint when you save a link.

When you use Wakelet's side panel to save the current page, the extension reads the page details and full HTML from the active tab. It removes some element types such as scripts and styles, then posts the page URL and remaining HTML to d25b5nddb51s46.cloudfront.net for link scraping before creating the Wakelet card.

Where it sends data

Destinations our analysis observed Wakelet 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.
