About AI Impact Tracker
The extension uses the length of your messages and ChatGPT’s replies to estimate energy usage based on GPT-5 characteristics. The results are estimates, not guarantees, but give you a sens e of your AI footprint. It runs securely in your browser and never sends your data anywhere.
🌱 Features
- Estimates ChatGPT energy use from text length
- Works locally: no data leaves your browser
- Helps you understand your environmental impact
🏗️ Limitations (for now):
- Chrome only (support for other browsers coming)
- ChatGPT only
- Estimation accuracy is a work in progress
AI tools may be “free,” but they have real environmental costs.
