HARPA AI is an AI-powered research tool that helps users gather insights and data from various online sources, streamlining the research process for businesses and professionals.
HARPA AI is a powerful Chrome extension that serves as an all-in-one AI assistant, automating web tasks, summarizing content from web pages, YouTube videos, PDFs, and images, while extracting structured data like prices and keywords to supercharge research and productivity.[1][2][4] Its core value lies in page-aware AI functionality, where it reads and interacts with the current webpage context using multiple models like GPT-4o, Claude, Gemini, and Grok, enabling over 100 predefined commands for tasks such as SEO optimization, content repurposing, email drafting, and web scraping in CSV or JSON formats.[2][4][5]
Key features include real-time web monitoring for price drops, stock availability, or competitor changes, custom automation agents, and seamless integrations with tools like Zapier and Make.com, all accessible via a simple Alt+A shortcut.[1][4][7] Designed for marketers, researchers, students, content creators, and e-commerce professionals, it streamlines competitor analysis, literature reviews, social media marketing, and routine browsing tasks.[2][6]
What sets HARPA AI apart is its hybrid automation engine that combines contextual AI chat with browser actions like clicking and data extraction, offering dev-friendly customization with personal API keys—far beyond standard chatbots by delivering always-on, web-savvy superpowers.[4][5]

Moderate risk. Suitable for internal data but avoid confidential information.
HARPA states it does not collect browsing data and processes data locally before sending to LLM providers of user's choice, but the Privacy Policy vaguely states data is used 'to provide and improve Service' including 'processing textual data through Large Language Models.' No explicit opt-out or clear statement that user content is NOT used for model training.
“[Privacy] 'to provide and maintain our Service, including but not limited to: processing textual data through Large Language Models and 3rd party AI services.' No explicit training prohibition stated.”
ToS states users 'retain all your rights to any Content you submit' and HARPA claims no custodianship of user-generated content. However, the Feedback clause grants HARPA 'exclusive, transferable, irrevocable, free-of-charge, sub-licensable, unlimited and perpetual right' to use feedback, which is broad. The scope of the content license for regular service usage is unclear.
“[ToS] 'you retain all your rights to any Content you submit, post, display, or otherwise process through the Service' but Feedback receives 'exclusive, transferable, irrevocable...sub-licensable, unlimited and perpetual right to use.'”
HARPA shares data with service providers (Google Analytics, Mixpanel, payment processors) and states data may be transferred to 'subsidiaries and affiliates' and 'contractors, service providers, and other third parties.' Analytics data is anonymized, but the list of third parties is not fully transparent and sub-processor details are limited.
“[Privacy] 'to our subsidiaries and affiliates; to contractors, service providers, and other third parties we use to support our business' and [Privacy] 'we anonymize analytical data we collect' but no comprehensive sub-processor list provided.”
Privacy Policy states data is retained 'only for as long as is necessary' and users can request deletion via email. However, retention periods are vague ('as long as necessary'), and Usage Data retention is unclear ('generally retained for a shorter period' but exceptions exist for security/functionality improvements).
“[Privacy] 'We will retain your Personal Data only for as long as is necessary for the purposes set out in this Privacy Policy' and 'Users can send us an email...and ask to delete any data we have stored about them' but specific timeframes not defined.”
ToS explicitly states users retain all rights to content they generate: 'you retain all your rights to any Content you submit, post, display, or otherwise process through the Service.' HARPA claims no custodianship and no ownership rights over user-generated outputs.
“[ToS] 'you retain all your rights to any Content you submit, post, display, or otherwise process through the Service' and 'HARPA AI TECHNOLOGIES does not serve as a custodian of user-generated Content.'”
ToS and Privacy Policy reference GDPR compliance and CalOPPA compliance, and mention encryption/security measures (SSL, salted hashes, access controls). However, no SOC 2, ISO 27001, HIPAA, or other formal certifications are mentioned. Security practices are described but not independently verified.
“[ToS] 'we align our processes with GDPR mandates' and [Privacy] 'We encrypt all client-server communication using SSL. We encrypt data in our database.' but no SOC 2, ISO 27001, or formal compliance certifications stated.”
