Chrome Extension that scans the page you're browsing for tickers and company names (currently covering the S&P 500 (large-cap), S&P 400 (mid-cap), and QQQ (Nasdaq 100).

The matched tickers/keywords are subtly highlighted, and hovering over them retrieves market data (e.g. day and 52-week trading range visuals, historical valuation) as well as a curated feed of news and tweets related to the company.

Would love any feedback!

Looks promising. When you say you only collect the URLs and HTML title tags does it mean this doesn't invade privacy at all if your DB is leaked ?

Correct -- we don't collect any user information, just the URLs and titles of pages where Dewey is activated. We don't even assign a unique user ID because we're only trying to determine which articles are most popular.
