Starline Research

A research assistant you drive, in the browser you already use

Most prospecting tools sell you a database somebody compiled once. This is the opposite: you look at a real company's real website, and the extension turns what is published there into a CRM record — after you have checked it.

Search

It builds targeted searches from your Knowledge Base — who you sell to, where, and who you compete with — and opens them one at a time as ordinary tabs in your own signed-in browser.

Collect

When the search it opened has loaded, it reads that one page for you and lists the companies, people, emails, phone numbers and profiles on it. Nothing is saved until you have ticked what to keep.

Enrich

For each company you keep, our server then reads that company's own public contact, team and about pages — respecting robots.txt, one company at a time — and adds the addresses and numbers it publishes.

Save

Everything lands in your StarlineCRM. Two people from one website join the same company; the same person captured twice updates one contact, and never overwrites notes you wrote.

What it will not do

These are limits in the code, not a policy somebody could change their mind about. An extension that collected behind a login would break those platforms' terms, and the account it cost would be yours, not ours.

  • It does not sign in anywhere for you, and cannot see anything behind a login you have not opened yourself.
  • It does not get past a bot check, a paywall or a rate limit. If Google asks you to prove you are human, it stops and tells you.
  • It does not click through result pages, scroll to load more, or open a search on its own. Every search starts with you pressing a button, and only that one results page is read.
  • It does not automate LinkedIn, Instagram, Facebook or X — no connection requests, no messages, no follows.
  • It does not run in the background. When the side panel is closed, nothing of it is running.
  • Company websites are read by our server, not your browser, and only their own public pages. It identifies itself, obeys robots.txt, and refuses to visit anything that is not on the public internet.
  • It sends to exactly one place: the StarlineCart address you gave it. There is no third-party endpoint and no analytics.

Nothing is sent unreviewed

A company name guessed from a page title is wrong often enough that sending it unseen would fill a CRM with work to undo. Everything the extension reads is listed with a tick box first, low-confidence rows start unticked, and nothing reaches your CRM until you press Save.

How it authenticates

With a token you create in StarlineCart and can revoke on its own — not your session cookie. The token is stored hashed on the server, authorises capture into your own account and nothing else, and revoking it stops the extension immediately while signing you out of nothing.

Installing it

It is not in the Chrome Web Store yet. Today it is loaded unpacked from the repository, which takes about ten minutes and works in Chrome, Edge, Brave or any other Chromium browser — the steps are in STARLINE_EXTENSION_LOCAL_SETUP.md. You need a StarlineCart account, which is free.

The CRM it writes into is free forever

No seat count, no record limit, no trial. Create an account and the extension has somewhere to send things.
