Overview

Product summary

Review the store description, core capabilities, and common use cases.

This extension will make mailto: links open in a Gmail compose window. Nothing more, nothing less.

* Supports Google Apps accounts

* Works on javascript-inserted links

* Includes option of working on bcc: fields

It supports to, cc, subject, and body (and optionally bcc) fields, and is made to be compatible with RFC2368, the mailto: scheme standard.

It doesn't modify the mailto:address itself, so you can still see the link in the status bar when you hover over it, which allows you to easily read the target at a glance.

AI product read

Intercepts mailto: links on web pages and redirects them to open a Gmail compose window instead of the default desktop email client

When users click mailto: links in Chrome, the OS default email client opens. Users who primarily use Gmail have no built-in way to make mailto: links open Gmail. This extension solves that by intercepting mailto: clicks and opening Gmail compose with pre-filled fields.

Install extension → browse any webpage → click a mailto: link → Gmail compose window opens in a new tab with the recipient, cc, subject, and body pre-filled per RFC2368.

Target users: Gmail users who want mailto: links to open Gmail instead of a desktop email client / Google Apps/Workspace users

Monetization

No paid features detected

No payment, subscription, billing, premium, or upgrade code exists anywhere in the extension. All 'pro' keyword hits are false positives matching JavaScript built-ins (Promise, stopPropagation). The extension has no tiers, no feature gating, no payment platform integration. It is entirely free with all features available to all users.

Confidence: 99
Payment platform: --
Source: AI / High
Login required: Yes
Reason: The extension itself has no login mechanism or account system. However, its core workflow requires the user to already be signed into Gmail. The description explicitly states: 'this extension doesn't need or provide any access to your mail account. It just makes links open in a Gmail account that you are already signed into.' The extension constructs Gmail compose URLs (mail.google.com) and opens them in new tabs, which only work if the user has an active Gmail session.
