This locally-made browser tool helps you shop directly from local businesses

Seattle is no stranger to tech startups and ideas. But this new browser extension that was created locally is pretty special. It’s called Sook and it aims to help consumers support small businesses rather than big.

Sook works like other browser extensions in that you are able to search through a series of categories. But why this extension is special is because it will only show you results from local and small businesses. This means you can still shop online but you can avoid corporations and large companies that don’t really need your dollars.

Plus what’s extra cool about this extension is that it’s free for both the user and the business. And on the business side of things that’s pretty rare. But the creator Jonathan Sandals has said that Sook is a passion project for him and his gift to Seattle. So we highly recommend that you check it out.

If you’d like to learn more about Sook you can click here. And if you’re an online shopper you might as well download it because it never hurts to have another extension. With that, we hope this inspires more Seattle techies to help small businesses. Have a great week Seattle!JTNDZGl2JTIwaWQlM0QlMjJtb2JpbGUtYWQtb25seSUyMiUzRSUwQSUzQyUyMS0tJTIwU2VhdHRsZSUyMC0lMjBNb2JpbGUlMjAtLSUzRSUwQSUzQ2lucyUyMGNsYXNzJTNEJTIyYWRzYnlnb29nbGUlMjIlMEElMjAlMjAlMjAlMjAlMjBzdHlsZSUzRCUyMmRpc3BsYXklM0FibG9jayUzQndpZHRoJTNBMzIwcHglM0JoZWlnaHQlM0E1MHB4JTNCJTIyJTBBJTIwJTIwJTIwJTIwJTIwZGF0YS1hZC1jbGllbnQlM0QlMjJjYS1wdWItNTUyMTg1Njk1NTQ5NzQ1NiUyMiUwQSUyMCUyMCUyMCUyMCUyMGRhdGEtYWQtc2xvdCUzRCUyMjE2MjcxNzI5NDclMjIlM0UlM0MlMkZpbnMlM0UlMEElM0MlMkZkaXYlM0U=
