Features

A safety net for every text box on the internet

Works everywhere: Gmail, Reddit, GitHub, forums, forms, CMSs — anywhere you type.

💾

Silent auto-backup

Every text field, every site, snapshotted every 60 seconds. You never think about it — until you need it.

One-click restore

Click the field, hit the restore badge, pick the exact minute you want back. Works with React & Vue apps.

Quick Paste Menu

Press Ctrl+Shift+Y anywhere for a floating menu of your last drafts. Arrow keys, Enter, done.

📝

Offline Markdown editor

A full editor with live preview built into the popup. Autosaved, versioned, exportable.

Time Machine slider

Scrub back through 30 days of history. Restore the draft from yesterday — or last Tuesday.

👻

Ghost-Writer overlay

A subtle icon inside text fields opens an on-page timeline of your changes. No popup needed.

🔐

The Vault

Pin important drafts so they're never auto-deleted — and lock them behind your own PIN code.

Instant export

One click sends any draft to Google Docs, Notion, Obsidian — or downloads clean Markdown.

Search your typing history by website, date, RegEx, length, or type. Find anything in seconds.

Privacy

Your words never leave your device. Period.

Most "form saver" tools sync your text to someone's server. DraftGuard doesn't — because it doesn't have one.

Everything is stored in your browser's local storage on your machine. There is no account, no telemetry, and not a single network call in the extension.

FAQ

Questions, answered

Does DraftGuard read my passwords?

No — and it can't. Password fields and anything that looks like card numbers, CVV, OTP, PIN or IBAN data are excluded from capture at the code level. They are never stored, not even locally.

Where is my data stored?

Exclusively in Firefox's local extension storage on your own computer. DraftGuard makes zero network requests — there is no server that could see your text.

How long are drafts kept?

Every draft is kept with full version history for 30 days, then cleaned up automatically. You can delete anything sooner from the popup.

Does it work on Gmail, Reddit, GitHub…?

Yes. DraftGuard supports plain text boxes, textareas, and rich contenteditable editors, and its restore mechanism is compatible with React/Vue-based sites. It runs on Firefox — a Chrome version is planned.

Is DraftGuard open source?

No — DraftGuard is proprietary, closed-source software. This site and repository host the official documentation and releases only.

Is it really free?

Yes — all current features are free with no account or payment. Two advanced features (the Vault and cross-device Sync) are still in development and will arrive in a future update.
