WaitAIMinute displays gentle reminder banners above text input fields on popular AI tool websites, encouraging you to think before you prompt.
Supported on popular AI chat tools.
How it works:
- A small banner appears above the AI input field with rotating ethical AI use reminders
- Messages rotate every 30 seconds with smooth transitions
- A progress bar shows your daily query count with fun dependency labels — from "Ninja" (0 queries) to "AI Addict" (10+)
- Toggle reminders on/off anytime from the popup
Query tracking:
- Tracks how many prompts you send per day, per site
- Set a custom daily query limit (1–40) to manage your AI usage
- Fun dependency labels scale to your limit — from "Ninja" (0) to "AI Addict" (over limit)
- Optionally block input when your daily limit is reached
- Browse stats by date with a per-site breakdown
- Today's count shows as a badge on the extension icon
- Reset today's stats or all stats anytime
Sensitive information detection:
- Scans your prompt in real-time before submission
- Warns you if it detects personal data like email addresses, phone numbers, API keys, passwords, or other sensitive information
- Helps prevent accidental sharing of private data with AI tools
Examples of reminders:
- "Wait a minute. Could you solve this yourself first?"
- "Your brain is the best model. Give it a chance first."
- "Pause. Think. Then decide if you really need AI for this."
No data collection. No tracking. Runs entirely in your browser. Your settings sync across devices through your Chrome account.
