what it is

Sus or Bus for Chrome is a browser extension that checks the websites you're about to open — before you open them. Click a link to another site and the extension pauses for a moment, shows that site's SUS or BUS rating in the corner, and lets you decide: continue or cancel. Open a site directly — a pinned tab, bookmark, or typed address — and the full report covers the screen until you choose to proceed. It uses the same safety engine as this app, so the rating you see in the popup is the same analysis you get here — with the full report one tap away. Every site scan also reads the site\u2019s own terms & conditions and privacy policy and tells you what they really mean — warnings or green lights included.

how it works

Click interception

When you click a link to another website, Sus or Bus steps in first and shows the site’s rating before the page loads. Continue if it looks bus, cancel if it’s sus.

Cache + auto-scan

Sites you’ve checked before show their rating instantly. New sites are scanned automatically in the background — a few seconds the first time. Ratings stay fresh for 7 days.

Mini findings

The popup shows the verdict (Valid or Not Valid), the safety score, and the top findings in plain language — plus a link to the full report right here on the Sus or Bus site.

Full-screen takeover

Open a site directly — a pinned tab, bookmark, or typed address — and the full report covers the screen before you browse it. Safe sites get one big Proceed button.

Safer alternatives

If a site is rated SUS, the proceed button shrinks and a one-tap lookup suggests well-known, safe websites that do the same job — in the popup and on reports in the app.

Toolbar dashboard

Click the Sus or Bus icon on the browser bar: see your recent verdicts, sign in or out of your account, and pause checks until a date and time you choose.

good to know
  • Links within the site you’re already on pass straight through — no popups.
  • Ctrl/Cmd-click and middle-click open new tabs directly, without the check.
  • Cached ratings live only on your device.
  • Google Search pages (www.google.com/search) are never checked — Sus or Bus stays out of the way there.
  • See "Don’t ask again for this site" on any popup to whitelist a website — it will never be checked again.
  • An account is optional and never required for checking. Create one from the first popup to sync your safe-site and never-visit lists with this website.
  • Also on the Chrome Web Store — but updates reach this site 3–5 business days sooner, since every new version waits in Google’s approval queue.
