  description

  Never lose a tab again. TabVault is an AI-powered tab manager that helps you save, organize, and find browser tabs using semantic search—not just keywords.
  
  🔍 SEMANTIC SEARCH
  Find tabs by meaning, not exact words. Search "that article about React hooks" and TabVault finds it even if the title doesn't say "React" or "hooks". Our AI understands context.
  
  🤖 AI-POWERED ORGANIZATION
  Every saved tab gets automatically enriched with:
  - Smart summary of the content
  - Intelligent category (Work, Tutorial, Shopping, Reference, etc.)
  - Relevant tags for better searchability
  
  All powered by Claude AI (you bring your own Anthropic API key).
  
  📚 SMART COLLECTIONS
  Organize tabs your way:
  - Auto-categorization by topic
  - Custom collections with color coding
  - Grouped views for easy navigation
  - Open entire collections with one click
  
  🔒 PRIVACY-FIRST DESIGN
  - All data stored locally in your browser
  - No cloud sync, no external servers
  - AI features use YOUR Anthropic API key (optional)
  - Zero tracking, zero data collection
