1. It's only for Chrome. I prefer Safari (for battery life), or Firefox (for extensions).
2. The free version doesn't allow "Intelligent scanning for weak sentence patterns" nor "Detect hundreds of jargon terms, redundant phrases, and other weak expressions".
That's a deal-breaker.
Why not let the free version do everything the "Full Boost" version can, but limit the number of emails it scans.
Say for the free version: "scan 1 email per day" or "1 per week" or whatever seems reasonable in a Freemium model.
Hmm, thanks for your thoughts. Yeah I actually removed all mention of the paid version shortly after posting here because I think I might have jumped the gun on it. I'm going to expand this beyond Gmail to work on any website with a text box very soon.
Perhaps limiting number of evaluations is a better way of doing this. I'll see. Thanks for the idea.
As for browsers, Chrome is easiest to develop for. I'll expand to other browsers once I get a working, proven concept worth maintaining on both platforms. I know Firefox's add-on API is mostly compatible with Chrome's extension API, but Mozilla rejected my last extension because of some obscure security issue I have yet to figure out.
