Meet Mindful: a browser extension that is dedicated to making the internet a safer place for everyone, using the power of sentiment analysis and machine learning. Mindful lets users see the sentiment value of what they type online in realtime – through emojis.
Looks cool! Perhaps would be nice as an API for websites/apps to implement to encourage all users to think before posting as opposed to only working for users that are already mindful. In terms of privacy, is this analysis done locally? Or is everything typed by users sent over to a server for analysis?
@marawan_1997 Thank you for the feedback! I will definitely look into the API idea. In terms of privacy, the actual sentiment analysis (the emoji) is done locally. The advanced analysis is done on a server. However, we respect people's privacy, and we do not store this text - after the analysis is done, the text is removed from memory.

Grammarly also does similar analysis with their extension. Except they extract the tones of all kind. I'd like to know how is this different.
@stopstopping Thank you for your feedback! The difference is that Grammarly uses this feature to impoves a user's writing technique, while Mindful uses a variety of tools to give users realtime feedback about the sentiment of what they are saying.

If "This video sucks" is flagged as a "toxic, obscene insult", I'd hate to say what it says about something that's a bit more substantial.
