About Chauffeur — Save & Restore Tabs and Windows

Pick up exactly where you left off. Chauffeur saves every Chrome window and tab you had open and restores them in a single click — your entire browsing session, back exactly as you left it. ⚠️ REQUIRES THE CHAUFFEUR APP (Windows) Start with a free trial at https://emaginasion.com. This extension is the bridge that connects Chrome to the Chauffeur app — on its own it does nothing. WHAT IT DOES • Captures all your open Chrome windows and their tabs. • Restores them on demand — windows and tabs reopen exactly where they were, with the right tab active. • Works automatically in the background once the Chauffeur app is running. WHY CHAUFFEUR You don't just work in the browser. You work in Chrome AND your editor, your Office documents, your notes. Chauffeur captures your WHOLE working state across all of them and restores it the next morning. This extension is the Chrome piece of that picture. 100% LOCAL — NO CLOUD, NO TRACKING This is the part that matters: the extension only ever talks to the Chauffeur app running on your own computer (127.0.0.1 / localhost). Your tabs, your URLs, your browsing — none of it is ever sent to any server. Nothing leaves your machine. No accounts, no telemetry. GETTING STARTED 1. Get the Chauffeur app from https://emaginasion.com (free trial). 2. Install this extension. 3. Save your context in Chauffeur — and Restore it whenever you want your session back. Windows only. Chauffeur is a local context service for your entire desktop.
