About this extension
Recon Hero is a browser extension for authorized security testing, penetration testing, and bug bounty research. It collects browser-based reconnaissance data from websites you explicitly choose to analyze and securely sends the information to your Recon Hero workspace for AI-assisted security analysis and reporting.


Recon Hero helps security professionals understand a web application's attack surface by collecting technical information available within the browser during an active analysis session. The extension only operates after you manually start an analysis and only for the website you have selected.

Collected information may include:
  • JavaScript files loaded by the page
  • API endpoints observed from browser activity
  • Network requests and responses
  • Page routes and navigation
  • HTML forms and input elements
  • Cookies for the active website
  • Local Storage and Session Storage
  • HTTP headers and security-related metadata
  • Client-side technologies and frameworks
  • Additional browser metadata useful for security assessments

The collected information is securely transmitted to your Recon Hero account, where AI helps organize reconnaissance data, identify potential attack surfaces, highlight interesting endpoints, and generate structured findings for further manual investigation.
  • Browser-based reconnaissance for web applications
  • AI-assisted analysis of collected reconnaissance data
  • Automatic identification of APIs and client-side assets
  • Technology fingerprinting
  • Project-based organization of reconnaissance results
  • Secure synchronization with the Recon Hero platform
  • Manual user-controlled analysis sessions


Recon Hero does not automatically scan websites or monitor your browsing activity.

The extension only performs analysis after you explicitly initiate it. Data collection is limited to the active website being analyzed and is used solely to provide reconnaissance and security analysis features within your Recon Hero account.

Recon Hero does not sell collected data or use it for advertising or behavioral tracking.


Recon Hero is designed for:
  • Penetration testers
  • Bug bounty hunters
  • Security researchers
  • Application security engineers
  • Internal security teams
  • Developers performing authorized security assessments


Recon Hero is intended exclusively for authorized security testing. Users are responsible for ensuring they have permission to analyze the target systems before using the extension.
