I've curated many extensions for my extensions-only curated newsletter and the top 3 for me would be:
1. Dashlane(or any password app) - you can get started on any new pc/mac with all your accounts.
2. Raindrop.io for capturing inspiration/bookmarks/interesting sites.
3. Extensity is a life saver when it comes to managing extensions, I have more than 40 extensions installed but using extensity helps me keep 8-10 active at any given time.
@daniel_baum hey 👋, the newsletter is at https://extendo.beehiiv.com. Sleek looks great, competitive market tbh. Good luck 😃
@fardeenkhan I'm launching a new Chrome Extension for Web Testers. I've signed up for your newsletter & am looking forward to reading the next issue. 😁👍
@fardeenkhan Thanks! Would love to connect and pick your brain about what you've seen in the space. Daniel@onsleek.com and I'll DM you on Twitter
@daniel_baum @fardeenkhan @daniel_baum hey 👋, the newsletter is at wisemedbilling.com Sleek looks great, competitive market tbh. Good luck 😃

1. https://manganum.app/ — turns Chrome into a productivity workspace. Calendar, Translator, Task, and Notes on board 😍
2. https://www.grammarly.com/ — Compose bold, clear, mistake-free writing ✍️
3. https://www.usemotion.com/ — To-dos, and calendar,
together 🧠
@yankovichv Motion is great and pretty underrated. Not familiary with Manganum, but considering you're building it I'll give it a look!
@daniel_baum
Motion attracted a great round; the guys will have a lot of success.
Any feedback on our Manganum would be welcome.
I see you are also building a business from expansion. I will install your product. Although I live in Georgia now, I probably won't be able to appreciate it fully. You have a very competitive market; I wish you strength!
@yankovichv Thanks, good luck to you too! Manganum seems like an intersting way to bring some of the best aspects of other browsers right into Chrome, so there may be a real need.
If you're in Georgia, you'll have to use a VPN to use Sleek - we only serve North America today.
1) Text Blaze: https://chrome.google.com/websto...
Saves me hours of repetitive typing every month.
(I'm an investor, but was a fan/heavy user before investing)
2) Typio Form Recovery: https://chrome.google.com/websto...
Saves me from punching my computer screen when some browser tab crashes after I spent the last 10 minutes typing a long essay.
3) Video Speed Controller: https://chrome.google.com/websto...
Saves me time by letting me watch videos at any speed that I want.
- Tampermonkey https://www.tampermonkey.net/ to supercharge any website when it misses something
- Dashlane https://www.dashlane.com/ to never type a password again
- Dropshipping Blocker https://dropshipping-blocker-web... to never buy a dropshipping product on a website (well this one is a funny side project of mine :-))

A bit of self promotion, but I really love our Collabwriting extension. 😅
Additionally, Loom for videos and Grammarly.
@sandra_idjoski The extension sounds cool! Where/What is the best use case for it? Some cloud-based programs already provide this, such as Google Docs
@daniel_baum While in Google Docs you can highlight and comment on text you've either written or copied there, our extension enables this on live content such as blogs or news articles. 😄
So far, it's mostly used when doing online research by users from content marketing and consulting.
@sandra_idjoski Very cool! Makes total sense to me - online collaboration is critical, and this seems like a much easier solution.
I wonder if universities and research institutions would be a target customer!
@daniel_baum They make total sense from the perspective of how much research they do. However, there are already some good free alternatives for students and researchers in academia.
Those solutions are more aimed at individuals too, while we are all about making collaboration easier. 😄
An unusual question, but a really intriguing one!
Here is my top list:
1. Redux DevTools - for UI devs debugging process.
2. Angular DevTools - for Angular developers.
3. Metamask - to work with crypto wallets.
- Minerva
- Grammarly
- Loom

Howdy @samdebrule,
Thank you for asking!
Mine are the following, and to hard to pick just 3:
- Sendspark: Video recorder of you and/or screen that can then be sent to someone on a branded page.
- LastPass: Password manager and other important information.
- Clipboard History Pro: All Control/Command+C text is automatically copies to a clipboard.
Pocket: Save blog articles to a library you can listen to.
- Grammarly: Grammar correction wherever you write.
Others I have and like the web software, but do not use as much or not used as an extension:
- Calendly: Scheduling meetings without conflicts.
- Cursor Style: Use an emoji as a cursor or create you own. Fun for branding during live events.
- inlytics: Linked analytics dashboard for personal profiles. Extension has no user interface, only to support connection between LinkedIn profile and software.
