- Sign in at kestrelleads.com and open Settings → Extension in the left bar. Click Download for Brave or Chrome.
- Unzip the file. You get a folder named Kestrel. Keep it somewhere safe, for example Documents.
- In Brave open brave://extensions, or in Chrome open chrome://extensions. Turn on Developer mode (top right), click Load unpacked, and choose the Kestrel folder.
- Pin Kestrel to the toolbar, then click its icon. The side panel opens on the right and asks you to sign in.
- Click Sign In to Kestrel. The App opens; sign in (or create your account), check the team and email, and click Connect. The side panel unlocks by itself.
Good to know
- Use a browser profile that is not signed in to Google. Kestrel stops by itself if it sees you are signed in, to protect your Google account.
- The extension only collects. Your leads, lists, AI, emails and exports are all in the App.
- Updates: download the new version from Settings → Extension, replace the folder, then click Update Now in the side panel. Your leads are safe in the App.
- Why not one click? Browsers install in one click only from the Chrome Web Store. Until Kestrel is listed there, this one-minute install is the way.
