Browser Extension
PanelPilot
A Manifest V3 browser extension that helps people discover legitimate paid-survey panels and autofill only their own factual details — designed from the ground up as an assistant, not a bot.
Where's the line?
The ask was simple — make earning from research panels less tedious. The hard part was the boundary: a fully automated survey bot would be fraud. So we designed the honest half of the problem — help a real person find vetted panels fast and remove repetitive data entry, while every real answer and submission stays in human hands.
- A Manifest V3 extension with a curated directory of 36 vetted panels behind a domain allowlist
- On-demand autofill of only factual demographic fields — never opinions, free-text, or attention checks
- A hard ethics boundary in code and docs: no auto-submit, no faked answers, no multi-account or CAPTCHA evasion
- A privacy-first architecture: no backend, zero network egress, profile stored only in local browser storage
- An offline voice-control layer for hands-free use, backed by 93 automated tests
A defensible product line.
A working, fully offline extension covering the whole find-open-assist loop, backed by 93 green tests and documented ethics, security, and accessibility specs — a case study in shipping the honest half of a problem instead of a risky bot.
