Comes with
Pro and Max.
Each lookup uses a few credits, and most questions use 1 to 3. Your plan gives you a fresh batch every month.
- A search or a list. 1 credit for every 10 results, up to 25 at a time.
- One extension, in full. 2 credits.
- Free. Connecting, and anything that fails on our side.
- A daily ceiling. 400 credits on Pro and 2,000 on Max, so one busy day can’t use up your month.

And what it can’t.
It only reads.Never your browser.It can look up
Store listings we’ve checked. Users, rating, rating count and the last update.
Written reviews we hold. With stars, dates and developer replies.
What an extension can access. Its permissions and its past versions.
Store history. How users and ratings moved over time.
Signs that a listing charges. If we can’t tell, it says “unknown”, never “free”.
It can’t
See your browser. No tabs, no history, nothing on your computer.
Change anything. Every tool is read-only.
Tell you what an extension earns. A store page can’t show that.
Read every review ever written. It tells you how many we hold.
Pull the whole store at once. Up to 25 results per lookup.
What is MCP?
MCP is the standard way AI assistants plug in outside tools. Ext Watch has an MCP address. Add it once, and your assistant can look up store facts instead of guessing.
Which assistants work with it?
Claude (web, desktop and Claude Code), ChatGPT and Cursor. Other apps that let you add an MCP server by address should work too. If yours asks for a server address, paste https://app.extwatch.com/api/mcp.
Do I need to be a developer?
No. In Claude and ChatGPT you paste one address, sign in to Ext Watch and click Allow. That’s it.
Can my assistant change anything in my account?
No. It can only look things up. It can’t edit, delete or buy anything, and you can disconnect it any time in Settings.
What happens when I run out of credits?
Your assistant gets a plain “out of credits” message with the day they refill, instead of an answer. Credits refill each month, and nothing is charged on top.
Can I buy more credits?
Not by yourself yet. Max comes with 5 times the credits of Pro. If you still need more, write to us from the support page.
Does my team share credits?
Yes. Max has 3 seats, and everyone on the team uses the same monthly credits.
How fresh is the data?
Each answer says when we last checked the store. We check again regularly, so history builds up over time. We don’t claim to update every minute.
What if I downgrade?
Your connections stay saved, but lookups pause until you’re back on Pro or Max. Nothing is deleted.
