Great idea. How will the average user know that you aren't eavesdropping on their queries?
I run my own node and Mempool.Space instance so I haven't looked up any of my own tx info on a block explorer in quite some time but that's not easy for the average user.
It might be a good idea to add a test address like the Genesis address or maybe some famous addresses with large balances just for fun and to test using the platform.
Keep building. We need more innovative tools like this.

We will have to do some good communication and marketing :)
If you don’t mind me asking, do you run your own full node in your own house? Is the bandwidth reasonable to your ISP etc?
Adding a test address is a good idea. Some of the exchange hot wallets make good examples.

I run both MyNode and Umbrel on 4GB RAM Ras Pis. I have no idea if my ISP is ok with the bandwidth but I haven't noticed any spikes in the price of my bill or anything.
I think exchange hot wallets would be a great idea. There are also some TxIDs here on https://kycp.org/. You might be able to get some good address ideas from that list.
Keep it up.
