A possible example
From web entry to the next work step.
Your team regularly takes the same information from a web view. An extension prepares the selected information. Before the handover remains a clear examination by the person working with it.

Only the accesses that are necessary.
To get started, we clarify browsers, landing pages, required data and permissions. The implementation takes into account the permitted accesses and the specific flow of your web tool. Changes to landing pages are part of the planning.
Services in detail
Browser tools for a clearly defined work route.
A browser extension can support recurring work right where your team does it. It is suitable, for example, for the structured transfer of selected data or an additional operating aid. Which implementation fits depends on landing pages, allowed accesses and distribution to the users.
Selection instead of unexplained full access
We start with the pages and data that are actually required for the task. The interface is designed to make it clear which information has been selected and what happens next. Confirmations can be provided especially when handed over to other systems.
Accounting for distribution and changes
An internal team needs a coordinated installation and update path. In addition, landing pages can change. Therefore, we note which views are supported, how errors are detectable and who checks necessary adjustments after changes.
Technical implementation
Insert tools into the actual browser flow.
We first check whether the task requires a browser extension or can be implemented as an independent web tool.
Page access and permissions
An extension requires clearly defined rights for the affected pages and data. Reading, clipping and transmission are considered separately. The function should receive only the accesses that are necessary for its work route.
interface and interfaces
When data is transferred from a visible website, layout changes can affect the process. An available interface is therefore also checked. Inappropriate page states or missing fields need understandable feedback.
Browser and distribution
Target browsers, versions and operational installation determine packaging and updates. Registration and access data require suitable storage. We test typical workplaces and determine how errors are detected after changes to a landing page.
Helpful for planning
Helpful are target browsers, the affected web applications, a concrete recurring work step and the desired distribution in the company.
Which of these questions is crucial for your project? Briefly describe your process and the existing systems.
Discuss technical requirementsGood to know.
For which browser is the extension created?
We determine this based on your working environment. Browser and distribution influence the functionality, permissions and later operation.
Does enlargement apply to all sides?
The required access is set for the specific purpose. Where possible, it is limited to the relevant pages and actions.
What happens if the web tool changes?
Changes to the interface or interface may require adjustment. We take this into account in the construction and clarify how enlargement is to be examined and maintained.
Is a separate web tool sometimes the better choice?
Yes. If the task is not directly linked to a specific website, a separate web interface can be useful. An official interface may also be more suitable than reading out a changing representation.
Can I correct information before the transfer?
A test view with correction capability may be part of the sequence. It specifies which fields can be edited and whether a confirmation is required before data is transferred to another program.
What is a suitable test case?
The specific landing page, a permitted example process and the expected result. In addition, we check missing information, changed views and unreachable target systems, as far as they belong to the agreed scope.
Which clicks are repeated?
Show me your typical process and the web tool you work with.
