AI Impact Monitor

Understand Your Digital Footprint with AI Impact Monitor AI nowadays seems like a magical tool. The answer to whatever questions you might have is just a short prompt away. But have you ever stopped to wonder what impact AI is having on our planet? Or perhaps you already know about the environmental costs and want a way to track your own contribution? AI Impact Monitor is a lightweight plugin designed to give you total transparency over your AI usage and its ecological cost. By analyzing your interactions on major platforms like Gemini, ChatGPT, Copilit, Perplexity, and Claude, we provide real-time estimates of the CO2 output, energy, and water consumption generated by every prompt. Key Features: • Real-Time Impact Calculation: Automatically estimates the environmental cost (carbon, water, and energy) of both your prompts and the AI’s responses. • Usage Tracking: Keep a running tally of your total prompt count to better understand your AI habits. • Visual Insights: We translate raw data into easy-to-understand graphics and relatable examples, putting abstract numbers into a meaningful context. • Ultra-Lightweight: Designed to run in the background without slowing down your browsing experience or your AI's performance. • Privacy First: Your text stays yours. We do not store the content of your prompts or the AI’s responses. All calculations are done locally on your device. Your Data, Your Choice We believe in the power of community-driven research. You have the option to opt-in or out of sharing your anonymized usage data with our broader research project aimed at studying AI’s long-term environmental effects. Whether you choose to contribute to the research or keep your data entirely to yourself, AI Impact Monitor remains totally anonymous. No accounts, no tracking, just honest insights into your digital footprint. Take control of your environmental impact—one prompt at a time.
