About

Instead of leaving every YouTube video open as its own active browser tab, YT Grid Companion helps you move those videos into 1 organized grid page. This can help reduce tab clutter and  lowers the browser load caused by having many YouTube pages open at once. Fewer active YouTube tabs can mean less strain on Chrome and your PC, especially when too many tabs are using memory, CPU resources and background page activity is reduced significantly.

Often find yourself with over 20, 50, 100+ YouTube video tabs open in your browser that you want to watch later?!

YT Grid Companion helps you save open YouTube video tabs into a clean visual grid so you can organize, review, restore, and manage large collections of videos without keeping dozens of tabs open.

It is a distraction free way to watch and organize YouTube videos. Perfect for researchers, creators, students, marketers, curators, developers, DIY learners, and anyone who wants to view 50 or more thumbnails at once without algorithmic noise.

Use YT Grid Companion to collect tutorials, research videos, product reviews, creator inspiration, lectures, references, walkthroughs, and videos you want to revisit later.

Main features:

Save open YouTube video tabs into a local grid.

Import and close YouTube video tabs to reduce browser clutter.

Restore saved videos as browser tabs.

View many thumbnails at once.

Keep video research separate from the normal YouTube recommendation feed.

Use a clean local first workflow.

Open your saved video grid anytime.

Help reduce Chrome tab overload by saving many YouTube videos into 1 organized page.

Keep your computer cleaner by closing extra YouTube tabs after they are saved.

How it works:

Open YouTube videos you want to save.

Click the YT Grid Companion extension icon.

Import the open YouTube video tabs.

Optionally close the original YouTube tabs after importing them.

Open the grid to view your saved videos in 1 place.

Restore tabs later when you are ready to watch.

YT Grid Companion does not download videos, does not replace YouTube, and does not require a YouTube account. It is built to help you organize the YouTube videos you already opened.

If you often end up with too many YouTube tabs and do not want to lose them, YT Grid Companion gives you a cleaner way to save them, close the clutter, reduce browser overload, and come back later.
