A free browser extension

Let the apps you trust do things in your browser — safely.

An app asked you to add OpenErrand? It lets that app finish browser tasks for you — like signing into a portal or uploading a document — in your own session, without ever seeing your passwords.

Free · open source · works in the browser you already use · uninstall anytime

What it does for you

Some things still have to be done by hand in a browser — there's no app for them. OpenErrand lets an app you already use do those for you, in your own logged-in session.

🔑

Signs you in

Logs into a portal or account using the login you saved — the password is filled on your device and never shared.

📤

Fills & uploads

Completes a form, uploads a document, submits a request — the repetitive steps you'd otherwise click through yourself.

📥

Fetches & reports back

Pulls a statement, a confirmation number, or a status, and hands the result back to the app that asked.

Why it's safe to install

OpenErrand was built so you never have to take that on faith. Here's what's true, and how you can check it.

🔒

Your passwords never leave your device

Any login you save is encrypted on your own computer and goes straight to the site you're signing into — never to OpenErrand, never to the app.

It only touches sites you allow

It ships with access to nothing. The first time a task needs a site, your browser asks you to approve that one site — and nothing else.

🎛️

You're always in control

See every app that's connected, watch what each task is doing, and disconnect any of them — or all of them — in one tap.

🔎

Open and reviewable

The security-critical code is open source under Apache-2.0, runs no hidden or remote code, and is built to Chrome Web Store standards.

Getting started takes a minute

Add it to Chrome

Install the extension from the Chrome Web Store. It sits quietly in a side panel until you need it.

Connect the app that asked you

Click Connect in that app, then a one-tap Approve in OpenErrand. That app — and only that app — can now request tasks.

Approve, and relax

When a task needs a site or a saved login, you approve it. Then it runs in your browser and shows you exactly what it's doing.

Ready when you are.

Free, open source, and you can remove it anytime.
