SignalTabs: Tab Workspace

SignalTabs is a local-first Chrome tab manager and new tab workspace for people who work with too many tabs open. Instead of scanning a crowded tab strip, open a new tab and see your current browser state organized into a readable workspace. SignalTabs helps you group tabs by domain, clean duplicate tabs, save tabs for later, and reopen recorded tab URLs from Archive when cleanup goes too far. What SignalTabs helps you do: - Organize open tabs by domain across Chrome windows - Spot duplicate tabs and close the extras while keeping one copy - Keep important tabs pinned and visible - Save useful pages for later before closing them - Reopen recorded closed-tab URLs from Archive - Search open tabs, saved items, bookmarks, and history with a keyboard shortcut - Release memory from eligible background tabs without closing them; released tabs stay in place and reload when clicked - Use light, dark, or auto theme mode - Choose how long Archive items are kept Memory release appears when more than 20 background tabs are eligible. You review and confirm before SignalTabs releases them. Tabs stay in their original windows and reload when clicked; background audio may stop, and unsaved transient page state may be lost. Any MB/GB shown is an approximate local estimate, not measured system memory. SignalTabs is built for people who use Chrome as a primary work surface, keep many tabs or windows open, and use open tabs as external memory. The shared behavior matters more than the job title. Why people use SignalTabs: - Bookmarks are too permanent for pages you only need later. - Leaving everything open makes the browser harder to scan. - Duplicate tabs waste attention and screen space. - A new tab page can be a useful tab organizer, not just an empty screen. SignalTabs is local-first by default: - No account required - No tab data uploaded by default - No server-side tab sync layer - Settings, saved items, and archive state stay in Chrome extension storage and related browser APIs SignalTabs is not a heavy session manager or a knowledge base. It is designed to help you see the mess, clean duplicates, save what matters, find it again, and get back to work.
