What Tabox is
Tabox is a browser extension for saving tabs and tab groups as named collections, then organizing and reopening them later. Users can place collections in folders, reorder and color-code them, and choose list or grid views. Saved tab groups retain their names, colors, titles, URLs, and order. The extension is available for Chrome, Firefox, and Edge. Collections stay on-device by default; optional Google Drive sync stores them in a hidden application data folder in the user’s Drive. Optional AI actions can group tabs, remove duplicates, rename collections, and arrange folders. When an AI action runs, relevant titles and URLs are sent to Tabox’s API and forwarded to OpenRouter; Tabox says it does not store prompts or responses. Users can share folders or collection links, and import or export collection and folder data as text files. Tabox says network communication uses HTTPS and server-side data is encrypted at rest. The free plan includes core collections, restore, folders, and Drive sync. Pro lists AI tools and sharing features, but its price is not shown; it lists a 7-day free trial.
