  description

  Blur detects emails, phone numbers, names, and personal data in ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini so
  you can review and mask them before sending.
  
  No account required. Install and it works immediately.
  
  HOW IT WORKS
    1. Go to chatgpt.com, claude.ai, or gemini.google.com
    2. Start typing a message containing an email, phone number, or name.
    3. A green status pill appears in the bottom-right corner
    4. When sensitive data is detected, the pill turns yellow or red and shows a count
    5. Click the pill to see all detected items
    6. Click "Mask" on any item, or "Protect All" to mask everything at once
  
  WHAT BLUR DETECTS (FREE)
    - Names and entities (people, companies, job titles)

    - URLs and personal links (LinkedIn, portfolios, social media)
    - Individual item masking and "Protect All" bulk masking
    - Real-time privacy score
