I built Sutra, a Chrome extension that helps you perform intelligent searches and analyses on your own browsing history.Instead of scrolling through a long list of URLs, you can ask questions like:“What are the clothing-related sites I’ve visited?”“What news related to Gaza have I read?”“What do I usually browse late at night?”“Which links do I visit most often?”“What did I open around the time I was on Etsy yesterday?”Sutra turns your browsing history into something you can actually explore, understand, and reflect on. These analyses can be done either through natural language searches or via predefined operations.Privacy & AIAll data stays local on your machine.No browsing history is sent to any server by default.AI usage is optional and user-controlled.You can use a local LLM (e.g. via Ollama) or a cloud model if you choose.GitHub: https://github.com/paulrahul/sutra Privacy policy: https://github.com/paulrahul/sutra/blob/main/PRIVACY_POLICY....Would love your feedback and suggestions.used AI to compose this post as I'm traveling without my laptop
