Cringe Guard + TypeSafe

A Chrome extension that classifies LinkedIn posts in real time with TypeSafe and hides cringe, clickbait, and low-value content.

Cringe Guard is a Chrome extension for LinkedIn. It reads each post as it appears, classifies it as cringe or not, and filters clickbait, engagement bait, and low-value posts before they clutter your feed.

In this build, Pankaj wired the classifier through TypeSafe instead of a generic LLM API. The demo shows the filter running live — he notes it removed almost his entire LinkedIn feed.

How it works

  1. Install the extension and open LinkedIn.
  2. New feed posts are sent to the TypeSafe classifier.
  3. Cringe posts are blurred or removed based on your settings.

The Destination is the open-source repo. A Chrome Web Store build is linked too.
