Created this new Airtable based Chrome extension with always updating list of 100+ SaaS Deals.

I am already curating hundreds of SaaS deals every month for our platform Lifetimo. But we keep receiving several queries saying that we missed a deal and if there is any way to bring it back or something. Unfortunately, a good lifetime deal rarely makes a comeback.

To solve this, I have created this chrome extension called 'Lifetime Deal Reminder' 😊 and you can have this for FREE! ❤️

Check it out here: https://lifetimo.com/chrome-indie

This is primarily created with an Airtable table and Airtable form. Once I see any new cool SaaS deal, I fill the form which is categorised under various fields like -

👉SaaS tool Name
👉Description
👉Deal Price
👉Deal Source
👉 Deal Link
👉Featured or not.

This way I keep adding 7-10 lifetime deals every week. Among these deals, if I find some unique and popular tool, I mark them 'featured' which sends a browser based push-notification to the subscribers and in this way, you get an instant alert so that you can't miss a great deal.

In the same way, I also send a reminder before a popular deal is about to expire.

This is the first public release ( Just got approved by Google Dev team ) So, there might be some minor bug or issue. ( While I have tested it multiple times )

Please feel free to give your feedback about the features, UI , image, speed or even about the description on the extension page.

Cheers. <3

    When adding your plugin, it wants to read and change my data on api.airtable.com - can you explain what this does and why it's needed. Thanks!

      Hey @ivangelist

      In the backend, the Chrome extension fetches data from my Airtable sheet and hence, to display these data under your browser, it needs to send a call to the Airtable API to fetch the data from my airtable sheet... So, while downloading the extension, it asks for the permission. It's a formality that Google store themeselves set to obey the policy.

      It never means, it can ready any of your data or just anything from your Airtable account. Actually there is no such API made available by Airtable. So, it will work even if you don't have Airtable account.

      Let me know if you have any more questions on this. Thanks.

    Unfortunately I won't be able to ask you to leave five-star review for the extension because Google has recently paused the ability to post reviews on the Chrome Web Store ( for any extension, not just mine ) due to Covid19 situation. :(
