Chrome Extension

Calm tab cleanup. Archived before closing.

Tab Steward watches for stale tabs, moves them into a review queue, and lets you keep, snooze, protect, archive, or restore them later.

Local-first No analytics. No remote sync. Your tab metadata stays in Chrome storage.

Reversible Tabs are archived before cleanup — restore anything, anytime.

Built for tab hoarders Review stale tabs gradually instead of declaring browser bankruptcy.

How it works

Three steps from chaos to calm.

Queue

Stale tabs surface automatically after a quiet period you configure.

Review

Keep what matters, snooze what might, archive the rest.

Restore

Everything is archived before removal. Nothing is ever truly lost.
