Created by solo developer Sourav Dutta, Smart Suspender is an open-source browser extension built for a better internet where anyone can browse efficiently without worrying about data leaks or privacy concerns.
Hi, I'm Sourav Dutta, a solo developer passionate about creating a better internet for everyone. Smart Suspender was born out of my personal frustration with browsers consuming excessive memory and draining laptop batteries, but more importantly, my concern about how most solutions compromise user privacy.
As a developer who values both performance and privacy, I often found myself with dozens of tabs open, leading to sluggish browsers and lost work. Traditional tab suspenders required sending data to the cloud or came with concerning privacy policies. I realized there had to be a better way - one that respects user privacy while delivering exceptional performance.
That's why I created Smart Suspender: a completely local, privacy-first solution where your data never leaves your device. My vision is simple - anyone should be able to use the internet without thinking about their data being leaked, tracked, or monetized.
This extension represents my commitment to building tools that empower users rather than exploit them. Every line of code is written with your privacy and freedom in mind.
To create a better internet where anyone can browse freely without worrying about their data being leaked, tracked, or monetized by big corporations.
I believe that privacy shouldn't be a luxury or something you have to pay for. Performance optimization shouldn't come at the cost of your personal data. Every feature I build is designed with privacy-by-design principles and complete transparency.
My commitment: Smart Suspender will always be free, open-source, and will never collect, store, or transmit your personal data. Your browsing habits belong to you, not to me or any company.
Your data stays on your device, period. No cloud sync, no tracking, no data collection, no analytics. I don't even have servers to collect your data - because I don't want it.
Every line of code is open for inspection, contribution, and learning. Transparency builds trust, and trust is earned through openness, not marketing claims.
Every decision I make is guided by what's best for users, not what generates data or revenue. You're not the product here - the extension is.
I believe in an internet where tools work for people, not against them. Where privacy is the default, not an expensive upgrade.
As a solo developer, I've carefully chosen modern web technologies and follow best practices to ensure Smart Suspender is secure, efficient, and respects your privacy:
Be part of creating a better internet where privacy is respected, data stays with you, and tools work for people, not corporations. Join thousands of users who've taken control of their browsing experience.
From Sourav: Thank you for supporting privacy-first software. Together, we can build an internet that works for everyone, not just big tech companies.
