it worked for a couple weeks, but lately it hasn't given me any notifications

Tim Tran2018年7月6日

Worked for the first day but then Prolific decieded to change their websites now it wont even display my balances. Does miss alot of the surveys given by prolific.

Silhou2018年5月17日

Doesn't work for me. Lists the money I have but doesnt show any new studies even when they are there on the website itself

inflames902018年5月15日

Doesn't work since prolific has updated their site. Was a great tool while it worked, though. Hoping for an update.

Thank you for updating and fixing the issues!

Adam Field2018年4月25日

It was a fantastic extension, until it stopped working a couple months ago with no errors or anything. Still doesn't work. Super sad about this. Would be nice if the author would fix it? edit: it was working again for a little while, then it stopped again. Now, as several people have mentioned, it's stuck telling me I have 5 surveys constantly, when I don't have any.

AI product read

Monitors Prolific.com for new research studies and sends desktop notifications to participants when studies become available

Prolific participants miss time-sensitive study opportunities because they cannot constantly watch the Prolific website; the extension automates monitoring and alerts them immediately

Extension authenticates user via Prolific OAuth → periodically polls Prolific API for new studies → when studies are found, plays an alert sound and shows desktop notification → displays study count on the extension badge → user clicks notification or extension to go to Prolific and participate

Target users: Prolific research study participants looking to maximize their earnings by catching new studies quickly

background.js and chunks/popup-DcTuvAWh.js are heavily minified (single-line, ~79KB and ~288KB respectively), making it difficult to trace exact control flow and feature logic
Cannot fully confirm whether the OAuth flow is mandatory for basic functionality or if some features work without login due to minification
Cannot inspect the popup UI to see if there are upgrade/premium prompts hidden in the minified JS

Monetization

No paid features detected

No evidence of paid features within the extension. The 'upgrade' keyword hit is from generic React minified code, not a payment prompt. 'pro' hits are from the word 'prolific' or variable names, not a 'Pro plan'. 'license' is from Tailwind CSS MIT license comment. No subscription, payment, Stripe, billing, or premium feature gating found anywhere in the source code. The extension itself is free; Prolific as a platform has separate business models for researchers but those are unrelated to this extension's functionality.

Confidence: 90
Payment platform: --
Source: AI / Medium
Login required: Yes
Reason: The extension includes a full OIDC/OAuth client library in background.js, communicates with auth.prolific.com for authentication, uses access_token/refresh_token flows, and has the 'identity' permission. To monitor Prolific for new studies, the extension must authenticate the user against the Prolific platform to access user-specific study data via internal-api.prolific.com and api.prolific.com. Without a Prolific account session, the core workflow (fetching available studies for the logged-in participant) cannot function.
