I like the concept, but wonder if this works better as a Chrome extension. Tried pasting my URL in there but it took forever to render.


Thanks! Some URLs can take a while, like longer than usual

I'm not sure if it's because the serverless function needs to wake up. But after the initial load it will load instantly for new visitors because the page is cached

I'm not too concerned about the initial load time for now because I mainly built it for my own use, but if a lot of people use it, I'll do what I can to improve, of course


What's the tech stack you used for this?


Next.js, Vercel, and Supabase :)
