Organize and reduce tab sprawl with focus mode and archives

We open tabs without hesitation - just one click and a new page appears. Over time, those 'Read later' or 'Buy later' tabs start piling up, turning into digital clutter. Each tab represents a small intention. A task to finish, an article to read, or an idea to return to, but together they create a growing burden that’s hard to manage.

Opening tabs is easy, closing them is the tricky part

What if there was a middle ground? A way to offload tabs into a smart archive, where you can organize and find them later?

Picture this: you’ve been working on a research project all day. Suddenly, an urgent task arrives. You already have 33 open tabs: news articles, blog posts, PDFs...hours of work collected. You don’t want to lose them, but you need to focus on your urgent task.

Now you face a few choices:

1. Open a new tab and try to ignore the 33 others
2. Minimize the current window and open a new one
3. Start bookmarking and arranging everything

Let's review these choices one-by-one:

Open a new tab and try to ignore the 33 others

Now you probably have a browser window that looks like this:

That works for a quick task. But if the task is longer or requires research, adding more tabs only makes things messier and heavier on your CPU and memory.

Which brings us to our second choice.

Minimize the current window and open a new one

Opening a new window can feel like a clean slate with just one tab for the task at hand.

But is it?

The other window is still open, distracting you. As more windows pile up, each with their own set of tabs, distractions multiply and the sense of fragmentation grows. If we repeat this cycle a few more times we might easily find ourselves with several windows, each with a few dozen tabs.

Looks like we need to close some of these tabs so that we can focus on the task at hand (And to save precious CPU cycles, GBs of Memory and Battery power)

So, we turn to our last option.

Start bookmarking and arranging the tabs you have open

Bookmarks aren’t ideal for temporary research. Naming a new collection, deciding where to save it, and finding it later turns into its own task. Worse, tabs are often scattered across windows - you’d need to hunt them down one by one.

Frustrating. Error-prone. There must be a better way.

TabsPrompt to the rescue!

With TabsPrompt, you have two options:

1. Archives to the rescue

Archives give you a dedicated space to store tabs without cluttering your active workspace. Instead of closing or bookmarking, you can send tabs into an archive with a single click. Tabs remain searchable, grouped by project, and retrievable at any time. Archives let you:

• Save memory by moving tabs out of the active browser session
• Keep research organized by topic or project
• Quickly restore entire sets of tabs when you're ready to resume

2. Double down with Focus Mode

Focus mode is like your browser's noise-canceling headphones. When you activate it, TabsPrompt safely tucks away all your open windows and starts you with a fresh, empty one. Or, alternatively, you can choose to bring in only the tabs you need for your current task. When you’re finished, you simply exit Focus mode, and your previous workspace reappears exactly as you left it.

Benefits include:

• A distraction-free environment for deep work
• Improved performance by suspending background tabs
