Description
This Chrome extension simplifies NYTimes headlines for a more neutral reading experience. Blander makes New York Times headlines... well, more bland. It uses Anthropic's Claude AI to rewrite headlines in real time as you browse nytimes.com. A small blue indicator appears next to each headline that has been made more bland, so you always know what's been changed. Requirement: An Anthropic API key (get one at console.anthropic.com). The extension does not include or provide an API key. You must bring your own. How it works: • Install the extension. • Open the options page and enter your Anthropic API key. • Visit nytimes.com. Headlines are automatically rewritten. Privacy & data handling: • Your API key is stored locally on your device and is never shared. • Headline text is sent to the Anthropic API for processing; no other data is collected or transmitted. • No analytics, tracking, or third-party services. Usage limits: • 50 API calls per day (resets at midnight) to help manage your API costs. • Results are cached so repeat visits don't use additional calls.
