# Roadmap
Phase 1 – Core Infrastructure & MVP Development
**Foundation & Architecture**
* Design system architecture (extension + local storage + AI processing pipeline)
* Finalize technology stack (React, TypeScript, Tailwind, Vite, Chrome Extension APIs)
* Build initial Chrome Extension manifest (V3)
**Security & Privacy**
* Implement Chrome Storage API with namespaced keys
* Local-first data persistence (no external transmission)
* Add extension permissions with least-privilege principle
Phase 2 – Data Collection Expansion & UI/UX Layer
**Core Features – Phase 2**
* Implement search query tracking (Google, Bing, DuckDuckGo, Yahoo)
* Add user interaction tracking:
* Click events on interactive elements
* Scroll depth milestones (25%, 50%, 75%, 100%)
* Hover tracking with throttling
* Form submissions and input field focus
**Analytics Dashboard**
* Build OptionsPage with React + Tailwind
* History view with timeline and raw data JSON explorer
* Overview dashboard: total visits, unique sites, time spent, top domains
* Tabbed interface for analytics categories (History, Overview, Searches, Interactions)
**Technical Enhancements**
* Implement modular content script injection on all pages
* Add mutation observers for SPA compatibility
* Optimize content scripts with throttling and debouncing
Phase 3 – AI Integration & Advanced Analytics
**AI-Powered Insights**
* Integrate Google Gemini API via secure background service
* Implement prompt engineering for behavioral summarization
* AI Summary Tab:
* Productivity score (0–100)
* Social media usage vs. work-related browsing
* Time analysis (peak hours, session length, active periods)
* Inferred interests and browsing categories
**Privacy & Security Enhancements**
* Add cookie monitoring (all cookies + change detection)
* Third-party cookie flagging and SameSite attribute analysis
* Privacy score calculation and improvement recommendations
* Add CSP (Content Security Policy) enforcement
**Performance Optimizations**
* Lazy load analytics modules
* Batch storage writes to reduce I/O load
* Memory management for large datasets
* Export feature (JSON with timestamped datasets)
Phase 4 – E-commerce Tracking & Public Release
**E-commerce Tracking**
* Detect and parse product views on Amazon, Flipkart, eBay, Walmart, Target
* Extract product metadata:
* Name, price, brand, category, rating, availability
* Detect e-commerce events:
* Add to cart, checkout, search queries, wishlist interactions
* AI-based product affinity detection and shopping behavior analysis
**User Management**
* Tracking toggle and data deletion controls
* JSON export of full data (compliant with data portability regulations)
* Consent banner and onboarding flow for first-time users
**Extension Release**
* Public release on Chrome Web Store
* Metadata submission (screenshots, privacy policy, manifest review)
* Initial marketing campaign and documentation launch
Phase 5 – Post-Launch, Developer Tools & Extensibility
**Developer Platform**
* Create plugin architecture for custom trackers (e.g., ecommerce verticals, niche platforms)
* Public API for read-only access to user analytics
* CLI-based export and analysis tools (Node.js SDK)
**Advanced Features**
* Behavioral trend prediction using AI
* Anomaly detection for browsing activity
* Productivity assistant (time budget warnings, focus summaries)
**Sync & Monetization (Optional Opt-In)**
* Encrypted cloud sync for users who opt in
* Token-based reward system for sharing anonymized data
* Monetization portal with user-controlled data licensing options
### **Ongoing – Maintenance & Compliance**
* Regular browser compatibility checks (Chrome, Edge, Brave)
* Security audits (scripts, APIs, AI prompts)
* Extension manifest updates as Chrome APIs evolve
* GDPR/CCPA compliance verification
* Extension telemetry (opt-in and anonymized) for performance feedback.

This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.
## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:
```
GET https://lifi-chrome-tracker.gitbook.io/lifi-chrome-tracker-docs/overview/roadmap.md?ask=&goal=
```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
