Most productivity software asks for your data before it gives you anything useful. Ownyu Technologies, a Hyderabad-based company, takes a different approach with its small, focused browser and WordPress tools. All four of its current products are free, and the extensions store their data locally rather than on a remote server. Here is what each one does and who it suits.
1. Ownyu Openmore: Staggered Multi-URL Opener
If you regularly open long lists of links, such as audit lists, research sources, or dashboards, doing it by hand is slow, and opening everything at once can freeze your browser. Openmore is a Chrome extension that pulls web addresses out of messy text (spreadsheets, emails, logs) and opens them in a controlled sequence.
Standout features:
- Smart link extraction: paste unformatted text and it isolates valid URLs, converting plain domains like
example.cominto securehttps://links. - Paced opening: the default delay is 3.5 seconds between tabs, which helps avoid being flagged as a bot by target sites. You can shorten it if you want more speed.
- Memory-saving tabs: pages open in a discarded “sleep” state, so they use no RAM until you click on them.
- Flexible placement: send links to your current window, a new window, or an Incognito tab.
- Saved presets and duplicate removal: keep named URL lists for recurring jobs, and filter out repeated links automatically.
- Active harvesting: one click collects every URL open in your current window.
Best for: SEO professionals, researchers, QA testers, and anyone who works from long link lists.

2. AI Meta Tags Optimizer (VerbatimAI Meta Tags Optimizer)
Writing meta titles and descriptions that fit search engines’ character limits is tedious. This WordPress plugin adds a panel to your post editor and generates both from your post’s title, headings, and body text with one click.
Standout features:
- One-click generation: it fills the Meta Title and Meta Description fields, and you can edit them before publishing.
- Length-aware output: it aims to keep text within limits to avoid truncation in search results.
- Native editor integration: it works in both the Gutenberg editor and classic meta boxes, with no separate dashboard.
- Light footprint: it runs on demand in the admin area and adds no scripts to your public site, so it shouldn’t affect page speed.
- Content stays untouched: it only reads your post and stores the metadata separately.
Best for: bloggers, small-business site owners, and content teams who publish often on WordPress.

3. Sticky Notes Extension by Ownyu
This extension puts draggable, resizable sticky notes on top of any webpage, so a thought or task stays visible while you browse instead of getting lost in another window.
Standout features:
- Floating notes on any page, including Google search results.
- Persistence: notes carry across tabs and survive browser and system restarts.
- Customization: change colors, resize, and style text.
- Lightweight and local: it uses
chrome.storage.localand claims no data is collected or sent externally.
Best for: researchers, students, and anyone who wants to keep reminders next to what they’re reading.

4. Set a Reminder Chrome Extension by Ownyu
A browser-based reminder tool for bills, meetings, breaks, and habits, with no account and no cloud sync.
Standout features:
- Recurring alerts: repeat every 1, 2, or 3 hours, which suits water, stretch, or eye-rest prompts.
- Exact-time scheduling: set alerts for specific times, with optional end dates after which the reminder deletes itself.
- Flexible responses: mark a reminder complete, snooze it for 10, 20, or 30 minutes, or end it.
- Offline and private: everything is stored locally, with no tracking or cloud servers.
Best for: people who spend most of their day in the browser and want simple reminders without another app.

A note on the privacy claims
The privacy claims above (local-only storage, no data collection) come from Ownyu’s own product pages, and I haven’t independently verified them. Before installing any extension, it’s worth checking the permissions it requests and the privacy section on its Chrome Web Store listing. For the WordPress plugin, note that it uses AI to process your content, so check the plugin’s page on WordPress.org for how that is handled.
