Alt Cloud Checker 제작자: Alt Cloud Checker

[DESCRIPTION]
Alt Cloud is an open directory of cloud services that are genuinely transparent: public pricing, self-service signup, and a visible status page. Alt Cloud Checker tells you, at a glance, whether the site you're looking at is in the directory — and if it isn't, lets you suggest it with one click.

Five status indicators

The toolbar icon shows one of five states:

• 🟢 Listed (3/3) — meets all three transparency criteria
• 🟡 Listed (2/3) — partial; the popup tells you what's missing
• 🔵 Future Cloud — on the watch list, not yet meeting all criteria
• ➕ Not listed — one click to suggest it via a prefilled GitHub issue
• ⚪ Unchecked — internal pages, search engines, code hosts, social platforms

In the popup

Service name, category chip, per-criterion transparency breakdown, and action buttons — view the entry on alt-cloud.org, report a correction, or (for Future Clouds) suggest they graduate. For unlisted sites, a one-click flow opens a prefilled GitHub submission you review before posting.

Three transparency criteria

To be fully listed, a service must meet all three:

1. Transparent public pricing — prices visible without signing up or contacting sales
2. Usage-based self-service signup — no sales call required to start
3. Production indicators — public SLA, status page, or uptime tracker

Services meeting two of three appear as partial listings. Promising services that don't yet meet the bar appear on the Future Cloud watch list.

Privacy

The extension collects nothing and sends nothing. The sole network request is a daily fetch of the public directory at alt-cloud.org/clouds.json, cached locally for 24 hours. Page metadata (title, Open Graph tags, favicon) is read only when you open the popup on an unlisted site, used only to pre-fill the suggest form, and never transmitted automatically. Full details in the privacy policy.
