About VIP

My name is and I'm the creator of VIP. Sometimes a simple question can lead to something bigger. When my son asked, 'Can we build something that helps people?' it planted the seed for VIP. A powerful Chrome extension designed to support you as you research or browse the web. It understands your screen, offering smart assistance, protecting your privacy, with whatever you’re working on.

The first version is completely free, with enterprise-level security, and absolutely no tracking. I’m looking for your feedback to understand how VIP can best serve you, whether you’re a teacher, student, doctor, scientist, researcher, lawyer, engineer or any professional in any field, I would love to get your feedback. Even if you want to just want to say hello and introduce yourself and tell me how you will or are using it, I would appreciate it.

This feedback is crucial for shaping future versions, which might include features to support education. For now, I hope you'll join me on this journey. Let’s see how we can make a difference together.
