TabRack
The private, local-first way to tame your browser tabs
Most tab managers want an account and quietly phone your data home. TabRack doesn't. Tab triage, folders, sessions, tab sleep, focus mode, a site blocker, and per-URL notes all run 100% locally with no login. The networked extras built-in AI, sync, payments are strictly opt-in and relayed through my own server, so no API key or account ever ships inside the extension. Powerful tab management that's private by default
Hey Product Hunt 👋
I'm Ashish, and I built TabRack because I was drowning in tabs — and because every tab manager I tried wanted an account and my browsing history in their cloud. That felt backwards for something as personal as your open tabs.
So TabRack is local-first by default. Triage, folders, sessions, tab sleep, focus mode, a site blocker, and per-URL notes all run entirely on your machine, no login. The parts that genuinely need a network — built-in AI, sync, payments — are strictly opt-in and relayed through my own server, so no API key or account ever ships inside the extension.
I'd love your honest feedback: what's the one tab-management habit you wish a tool actually fixed? If you try it and something feels off, tell me — I'm shipping updates constantly.
Thanks for checking it out 🙏
the local-only stance sold me, and tab sleep actually freed up a chunk of memory on my laptop. nice that sync is opt-in instead of shoved in your face.
love how the sync and AI stuff is strictly opt-in with no API key buried in the extension, that's exactly how it should be done.
Honestly love that the network extras are opt-in and routed through your own server instead of some third party. That choice basically tells me you actually thought through the privacy angle instead of just slapping it on the landing page.
Really appreciate the privacy-first stance, that sold me right away. One thing I'd love to see is a quick keyboard shortcut to save the current window as a named session and another to reopen that exact window later, maybe something like Cmd-Shift-S to stash and Cmd-Shift-R to restore. Being able to bounce between work and personal session bundles without clicking through menus would make this feel even snappier for daily use.
love that this stays local first, the per url notes alone are a reason to try it. one thing i'd want is a way to export or back up my tab sessions and notes to a plain json file on my own machine, so i'm not locked in even if the extension goes away. that fits the privacy angle too.
