1. Unhook
Unhook is a powerful Chrome extension to overcome your YouTube addiction.
It blocks the recommendation system on YouTube and only shows what you really want to see.
2. Tango
Tango is a workflow-capturing tool that has its own Chrome extension.
The tool helps you capture everything you do and transform it into a beautiful guide.
You can create beautiful how-to guides for your clients and brand without even having technical knowledge.
3. QuillBot
QuillBot is a go-to tool for writers.
It is very accurate in comparison to other writing tools like Grammarly, Hemmingway Editor, and Prowriting Aid.
Recently, it launched its own Chrome extension, which makes it extremely easy to correct grammatical errors and improve article quality.
4. Forest
Forest is yet another amazing tool for productivity geeks.
It comes up with an interesting methodology to overcome internet addiction.
Due to its unique concept, it stands out from the crowd.
It basically works on the principle of Pomodoro.
The more you complete pomodoros, the more you get closer to making your forest stronger.
5. xTiles Web Clipper
xTiles is a popular note-taking tool that is an alternative to tools like Notion, Obsidian, and Evernote.
Now it also comes with web clipping functionality, where users can capture whatever they like on the web with just a click.
They even have their own mobile app. Once you save these clips to your workspace, you can access them on your smartphone.
6. Power Thesaurus
The Power Thesaurus is a gold mine for writers.
Are you a writer who often gets stuck while writing due to a lack of words in your bank?
The Power Thesaurus is definitely for you.
Once you download this extension and select a particular word, it will show a list of synonyms to replace that word.
This makes the job of the editor very easy and also improves article readability.
7. OneTab
Do you often open numerous tabs while working on the web and lose count of them?
Opening multiple tabs at the same time puts a lot of pressure on your desktop performance.
But there is no need to worry. The OneTab extension is there for the rescue.
With just a click, it transforms all your tabs into a systematic list, which you can use however you want.
8. Sukha
Sukha is not a Chrome extension, but a powerful app for your desktop.
Work like never before with Sukha's powerful working environment.
It has multiple app integrations and features to boost your work efficiency.
I have a dedicated article on this app; check that out later.
9. ChatGPT file uploader
Pretty useful extension for free ChatGPT users.
Those who have a paid ChatGPT subscription already have this feature to upload files.
But this extension is specifically designed for free users.
Now submit any text or doc file to ChatGPT, and it will give you results based on it.
10. Postlight Reader
Postlight Reader is a handy extension for people who love to read articles online.
It promotes distraction-free reading without any ads or pop-ups.
After enabling it, you will only see text and images; the rest of everything will be blocked.
This maintains a flow state and enhances your overall reading experience.
11. Momentum
This is a go-to extension for people who like to work in a focused environment.
If you're someone who likes to work in a personalized environment, then this extension is for you.
It is somewhat similar to the Sukha app.
So if you're looking for an extension version of Sukha, then you can try this one.
12. Toby
Toby is your personalized tab management tool.
The only thing it requires is to sign up for your account.
Once you're all done with the setup, you will be provided with a personalized workspace.
It offers various features like drag and drop, session management, creating spaces, and much more.
It even replaces your Chrome bookmarks, as it has its own quick-access section to access all your tabs on the go.
13. Manganum Sidebar
This is a life-saving extension if you're a working professional.
It has integrations with various popular apps like Google Keep, Gmail, ChatGPT, Google Calendar, etc.
So that you don't have to keep switching tabs. You get everything in one place.
The best part is that it comes with sidebar functionality, so it doesn't even take up much space.
14. Ziteboard
Ziteboard is again a handy extension for creators.
If you're dealing with clients, then you can explain your roadmap to them with the help of this awesome extension.
With its ability to draw beautiful vectors, collaboration becomes pretty smooth.
15. Just Read
Are you an avid reader?
If yes! then this extension is specifically designed for you.
It gives you a feature-packed reading view, which makes it very easy to read articles on the web.
It is completely open source and collects zero data from users, which is the cherry on top.
16. Screen Shader
Are you someone who works a lot on the desktop?
Then this extension is for you.
When we work for longer periods on our laptop, then our eyes may get strained.
So this extension is pretty useful in such cases.
It acts like a blue-light filter to protect our eyes from harmful blue-light radiation.
It comes in a cozy orange tone to reduce eye strain and fatigue.
17. AIPRM for ChatGPT
The last, but definitely not the least, is the AIPRM extension for ChatGPT.
I don't know how many people know about it, but this tool is, in and of itself, legendary.
If you're new to using ChatGPT and don't know how to make efficient use of it, then this is the go-to extension for you.
It has a list of tools and prompts specifically designed to help you make optimum use of ChatGPT. Do try this one.
