I record product demos on our real admin dashboard, and I kept manually blurring customer emails and card numbers every single time — worse, they'd reappear the moment the page navigated.
So I built DemoBlur, a Chrome extension that:
- auto-detects emails & credit-card numbers and masks them
- lets you click any element to redact it
- keeps redactions persistent across page navigation / SPA re-renders (this was the hard part)
- has a "demo mode" master switch
It's early. Before I polish it further, I want to know if this is a real problem for anyone else. If you'd use it, drop your email (30 sec): grab early access here — I'll send it over.
Honest question: would you pay a one-time ~$20 for this, or is it a "nice, but only if free" thing? Your answer decides whether I keep building.
