Chrome Extension Local Storage
The Chrome extension may store your account email, anonymous trial ID, recent playback state, and recent video state locally in Chrome storage so the popup can remember context between sessions.
Backend Caching and Storage
Transcripts, chunks, novelty scores, summaries, shares, account state, and usage ledger records may be stored on backend disk to provide the service, improve reliability, avoid duplicate work, and prevent duplicate credit charges.
