A stopwatch for your browser.

Try Counting is a Chrome extension that counts how long you spend on each website. It's a personal time ledger, right in your browser's toolbar. Everything recorded stays in your browser, and incognito windows are never recorded. No account required — nothing is sent to Try Counting's server. Under the hood it's local IndexedDB storage, written and read entirely on your device.

Gather the sites you visit into research groups. Attach notes and highlights as you read. Export a formatted bibliography in one click. Hand the Library a DOI, arXiv ID, ISBN, or PMID and it writes the full citation. Paper Trail lays each group out as a date-time funnel: visited, annotated, pinned, cited.

Pick a date range and the Calendar draws it as bar or line charts. Spot trends, compare weeks, and watch your habits change. Every chart is drawn from counts that never left your browser.
