Help and answers for the PolyMind Chrome Free Beta.
PolyMind becomes publicly available only after the extension passes its release verification. This page describes the intended Free Beta.
Frequently asked questions
What is PolyMind?
A private memory for your browser. It remembers pages you have read so you can find them again with a fast, on-device search.
Is it free?
Yes. This is a free beta for Chrome. There is no user account and no payment.
Where is my data stored?
On your device. In this release the indexed page text and your search queries never leave your device.
Does PolyMind contact a server in the Free Beta?
Only for a limited technical activation / license validation, if enabled by the published build. Your page text and search queries are not sent. Server embeddings, AI synthesis and sync remain disabled.
Which pages get indexed?
Only after you give explicit consent, and only regular pages. Sensitive pages — login, banking and payment — are excluded automatically, and you can block any domain.
How do I stop indexing or clean up?
You can pause indexing, block a domain, delete an individual memory, or run a factory reset to remove everything.
Does it use AI, the cloud, or sync?
Not in the Free Beta. There are no server embeddings, no AI synthesis, no sync and no Teams. The only server contact is a limited technical license check, which never includes page text or search queries.
Which browsers are supported?
This release is for Chrome (Manifest V3).

Why PolyMind needs access to the pages you visit
PolyMind reads the content of pages you visit so it can build your searchable, on-device memory. This access is used only to index the pages you choose to keep, so you can find them again later.
How sensitive-site exclusions work
Sensitive pages are excluded automatically and are never indexed: authentication / login pages, and banking and payment pages. You can also add any domain to your own exclusion list.
What is sent to a server in the Free Beta
In the Free Beta, page text and search queries are processed and stored on your device and are not sent to any server. The extension may make a limited technical license request, which does not include page content or search queries.
