Vienna, Austria, Sept. 17, 2026 /CourierPR/ -- Vienna, Austria, September 17, 2026, Slop'o'Meter today announced the public launch of its free browser extension for Chrome and Firefox. The extension rates the humanness of every LinkedIn post directly in the feed, providing a 0-100 score, a color-coded badge, and the exact reasons behind the verdict. This tool aims to help readers distinguish between authentic writing and AI-generated filler, saving them time and effort.
The browser extension is part of a three-way launch. The same scoring engine is available as a free paste-and-score tool at slopometer.ai and as a REST API for developers who want to integrate the score into their own products. According to the company, LinkedIn has become a showcase for AI-generated posts that read as if a language model wrote them. These posts, while not wrong, are often empty and crowd out the authentic voices of founders, engineers, and writers who still type their own thoughts.
Slop'o'Meter was built to address this issue. It uses a sophisticated scoring engine that weighs clusters of hard tells against specific signals of human authorship. The extension adds a small score badge to the action bar of every post in the LinkedIn feed. A post is rated once it has been on screen for about a second, ensuring the number is visible by the time the reader reaches it. Hovering the badge reveals the one-line verdict and the concrete reasons behind the score, such as emoji-bullet lists with bolded labels or the trademark "It's not X, it's Y" reframe.
The extension is available today on the Chrome Web Store and on Firefox Add-ons. It runs only on linkedin.com and stores nothing but its own settings in the browser. The company notes that the extension is free, with no account required. Each install gets a daily allowance of fresh scores, and posts that have already been scored are served from a shared cache and never count.
Slop'o'Meter is designed to be useful to everyone who writes, publishes, or moderates text. For readers, the extension helps identify which LinkedIn posts are worth their attention. For creators and authors, it provides a warning when their own writing is starting to sound generic. Publishers and content tools can run guest submissions, blog drafts, and reviews through the API, allowing editors to sort by score instead of reading everything twice. Communities and forums can flag low-effort AI posts before they bury the human discussion. Social and inbox tools can mark suspected AI outreach and generic sales spam the moment it lands. Moderation teams can use the score to prioritize what humans review first, never punishing automatically.
The extension is available now, free of charge, on the Chrome Web Store and Firefox Add-ons. The web scorer is free at slopometer.ai with no sign-up. The API is free while in beta, with a daily allowance of fresh scores per account. Early accounts will keep a generous free tier when usage-based pricing arrives. Documentation and code samples are available at slopometer.ai/docs.
