TabPilot

TabPilot is a safer tab cleanup extension for Chrome. If you often work with many tabs open — docs, GitHub, AI chats, search results, dashboards, and reference pages — TabPilot helps you clean up inactive tabs without closing them. Instead of aggressively removing tabs, TabPilot uses Chrome’s native sleeping behavior. Your tabs and URLs stay in place, but inactive pages can release memory until you open them again. Key features: - Protect important tabs from cleanup - Skip active, pinned, audible, loading, and protected tabs - Put inactive tabs to sleep safely - Review cleanup candidates before taking action - Restore recently cleaned tabs - Manage protected domains - Optional automatic cleanup when memory is low - Local-only data storage - No tracking, analytics, ads, or external servers TabPilot is built for developers, researchers, AI-assisted workflows, and anyone who keeps too many tabs open. Your tab data stays on your device. TabPilot does not send tab titles, URLs, domains, or browsing activity to external servers.
