RecAlign: Transparent and Editable Recommendation Filtering for Chrome
RecAlign is a free Chrome add-on developed by realign.dev. It falls under the category of Browsers and the subcategory of Add-ons & Tools.
RecAlign aims to address the misalignment between recommendation systems and user well-being. Many recommendation systems prioritize user attention and often prioritize their own objectives over the user's best interests. RecAlign is an open-source initiative that uses large language models (LLMs) to filter and remove recommendations based on the user's explicit preferences.
One of the key features of RecAlign is its transparent and editable preference system. Users can set their own preferences, allowing them to have full control over the content they see. The add-on ensures that recommendations are aligned with the user's stated preferences, providing a personalized and tailored browsing experience.
With RecAlign, users can enjoy a more conscious and intentional online experience, free from the influence of recommendation algorithms that may not have their best interests at heart. By filtering content based on transparent and editable preferences, RecAlign empowers users to take control of their online content consumption.
