How it works!
MINE remembers what you own — and tells you while you shop whether something works with it. No account, no searching, no memorising model numbers.
- It's mine
1. Tell MINE what you own
Open your device on a shop page — say, your printer on Amazon. Next to “Add to cart” a green button appears: “It's mine”. One click and MINE remembers it.
You can also take over everything from an order confirmation with one click.
- Does it work?
2. Shop like you always do
On accessory pages — cartridges, filters, cases — you see the same green button, now saying “Does it work?”. In the cart, each item shows what MINE already knows about it.
- Works with … / Doesn't work with …
3. Click “Does it work?”
MINE briefly shows your Thing and the product side by side. Click “Check” — and after a few seconds you get a clear answer: works, doesn't work or unclear. With reasons. If it doesn't work, MINE suggests alternatives.
Afterwards one click takes you right back to where you were.
The little M at the top of your browser
That's your traffic light. A plus means “this could be yours”, a green check “works”, a red cross “doesn't work”. Click it to open your MINE card with your Things and your recent checks. Click again to close it.
And my data?
Your Things stay in your browser. For a check, MINE only sends the product link to the MINE server. MINE never puts anything in your cart and never changes the shop.
Quick questions
- Do I need an account?
- No. MINE works right after installing.
- What does it cost?
- Nothing. If you buy via a MINE link, MINE sometimes gets a small commission from the shop — your price doesn't change.
- Is the result always right?
- MINE reads the product page and compares it with your Thing – like a patient friend who knows their tech. And MINE tells you honestly how sure it is. On “Unclear”, the reasons are worth a look.
- How do I remove MINE?
- Right-click the M at the top of your browser → “Remove from Chrome”. Your Things are deleted with it.
