Installation

CrawlPilot is a Chrome browser extension that runs entirely in your browser. All your data stays local — nothing is uploaded to a server.

System Requirements

  • Browser: Google Chrome 114 or higher
  • OS: Windows, macOS, or Linux (any OS that runs Chrome)
Note
Other Chromium-based browsers (Edge, Brave, Arc) may work but are not officially supported yet.
