How does it work?

As you browse the web and navigate to different websites, the browser extension checks the website to see if it has a security.txt or a humans.txt file. If it has either file, an icon is shown in the URL bar. You can click this icon to view more details about the text files that were located.

humans.txt is a less formal initiative for providing human-readable information about the authors of the website.
