FAQ

Does JSONClean send my JSON anywhere?

No. All parsing happens in your browser. The extension makes zero network requests. The only data stored is your local settings.

Why a paid Pro tier?

A small paid tier ($2/mo) lets the project stay independently operated by a single developer — no investor pressure, no acquisition risk. Basic formatting stays free forever.

Do Pro features send my data anywhere?

No. All Pro features run 100% locally in your browser, just like the free tier. The privacy story doesn't change when you upgrade.

  • Search — runs against in-memory JSON
  • JSONPath — evaluated locally with a parser bundled in the extension
  • Schema inference — type/schema is computed from the data on your machine; no LLM, no cloud
  • Diff — both JSONs stay in your browser
  • PII redaction — regex-based masking, output never leaves your device
  • YAML / CSV conversion — bundled parser runs locally
  • History — stored only in chrome.storage.local, never synced
What makes JSONClean different?

JSONClean is built from scratch on Manifest V3 with minimum permissions (storage only), zero network calls, and no remote code. It is operated by a single independent developer — keeping decisions fast and aligned with users, not investors.

What about open source?

Currently proprietary to allow rapid iteration. Transparency is delivered through minimum permissions (verifiable in the manifest) and zero network calls (verifiable via DevTools). Open source release is on the roadmap.

Will JSONClean ever be sold?

No. JSONClean is intended to remain independently operated. If the operator ever stops maintaining it, the source will be released under an open license rather than sold to a new owner.
