AI-powered gambling blocker that blocks betting sites, tracks your streak, and gives instant support when an urge hits. Break free from gambling with GambleGuard, a free, AI-powered Chrome extension that pairs serious site blocking with real, in-the-moment recovery support. Built for people working to quit gambling, with no ads, no premium tier, and no judgment. CORE PROTECTION Two-layer blocking for real coverage. The first layer instantly blocks 200,000+ known gambling sites at the network level, so the page never loads and can't be refreshed past: sports betting platforms (FanDuel, DraftKings, Bet365), online casinos, poker rooms, crypto-gambling sites, and prediction markets, plus all their subdomains. The second layer reads each page's content in real time and blocks gambling sites the blocklist has never seen, so your coverage is never capped by a list. Works on every kind of gambling: Sports betting, online casinos, poker, daily fantasy, crypto gambling, skin betting, prediction markets, and more, both traditional sites and the newer ones. A block you can't refresh past. When a gambling site is detected, GambleGuard covers it with a full-screen interruption that does not go away on refresh or navigation. That pause is the point. It gives you a moment to choose instead of acting on the urge. RECOVERY DASHBOARD See your progress. Track your current gamble-free streak, total sites blocked since you installed, blocks this week, and your journal entries, all in the popup, at a glance. Stay motivated week to week. Weekly stats help you set short, winnable goals and build a habit that sticks. IN-THE-MOMENT SUPPORT A recovery coach, any hour. The moment an urge hits, open Streak AI, a chat powered by Azure OpenAI, tuned specifically for gambling recovery and drawing on evidence-based methods like CBT and relapse-prevention. It is private, judgment-free, and always available. Private journaling with insight. Write what you're feeling and get back a calm, supportive reflection that helps you spot your triggers and patterns over time. Entries are yours. Breathing that actually helps. A guided 4-7-8 breathing exercise with visual cues, phase prompts, and five full cycles to bring an urge down in the moment. CRISIS RESOURCES, ONE TAP AWAY Help when it's serious. Direct links to the National Council on Problem Gambling helpline (1-800-522-4700), the Gamblers Anonymous meeting finder, and the SAMHSA treatment locator, right from the popup. Always reachable. Over 40 recovery, mental-health, and financial-help resources are permanently whitelisted, so GambleGuard will never block you from getting help. CONTROL THAT RESPECTS YOU Pause with intention. Temporarily turn protection off through a clear confirmation step (and we log pauses so you can see your own patterns). Smart whitelist. Blocked something legitimate by mistake? Whitelist it in one click, and manage the list any time in settings. Report a miss. Flag a site we got wrong; your anonymous feedback sharpens the blocklist and detection. PRIVACY FIRST Your data stays on your device. Stats, journal entries, and settings live in Chrome's secure local storage. No browsing history leaves your computer. No tracking, no ads, ever. GambleGuard has no advertising and no third-party trackers. It exists for one reason: to help people quit gambling. Anonymous data sharing is opt-in. You decide whether to share aggregated, non-identifiable usage data to improve detection. Off by default; toggle any time. WORKS WITH THE WEB APP Optionally sign in with Google to sync your blocked attempts with gambleguard.net for deeper insight, your weekly recovery report, and accountability tools. BUILT TO BE INVISIBLE Runs silently in the background, no setup required. Blocks in under a millisecond, uses minimal memory, and works on modern single-page sites (React, Vue) that many gambling platforms use. It won't slow you down. ABOUT GambleGuard is built for people in recovery from gambling, by people who've seen what it does. The mission is simple: make real recovery tools free and available to anyone who needs them. No paywall, no catch. Install GambleGuard and take the first step toward a gambling-free life.
