  Stop hoarding tabs. Start folding thoughts.
  
  A browser full of open tabs isn't just clutter. It's unfinished thinking.
  
  For people with ADHD, researchers, and knowledge workers, every open tab is a background task quietly draining focus and memory. ThoughtFold is a Chrome extension and local-first tab manager designed for how your brain actually works — not how productivity tools expect it to.
  
  Instead of leaving tabs open or dumping them into bookmarks, you "hibernate" them. This saves both the link and the intent behind it, so you can return later with full context intact.
  
  
  HOW IT WORKS
  
  1) Save a tab with an intent (why it matters)
  2) Hibernate it to close the tab instantly
  3) Return later and pick up exactly where you left off
  
  No lost context. No mental clutter.
  
  
  KEY FEATURES
  
  Intent-Based Parking Save not just the link, but why it mattered — so reopening a tab doesn't mean starting from scratch.
  
  Tab Hibernation: Close tabs while preserving full context. Reduce mental load and free browser memory instantly.
  
  The Vault: A clean, organized side panel where every saved tab is easy to find and revisit. No digging through bookmarks.
  
  Drag & Drop Organization: Structure your Vault in a way that matches how you think, not how apps expect you to organize.
  
  Markdown Export: Export your saved tabs directly into Notion, Obsidian, or any Markdown-based knowledge system.
  
  Hybrid Notes: Add context when the URL alone isn't enough to remember why something mattered.
  
  Keyboard Shortcut: Open and manage your Vault instantly with Alt+Shift+H — no mouse required.
  
  Gentle Stale Tab Reminders: Optional nudges for tabs left open too long — awareness without pressure.
  
  
  WHY THOUGHTFOLD?
  
  Most tab tools either save links and lose context or keep tabs open and drain memory. ThoughtFold does both:
  
  → Preserves your intent — clearer thinking when you return 
  → Hibernates tabs — better browser performance immediately 
  → Stays entirely local — your data never leaves your machine
  
  PRIVACY FIRST
  
  ThoughtFold is 100% local-first. Zero cloud. Zero tracking. Zero data collection.
  
  No syncing. No servers. No account required. Everything stays on your device.
  
  
  PRICING
  
  Free to install. No account needed.
  
  Optional one-time Supporter upgrade ($30) unlocks: 
  • Unlimited custom intents (free tier includes 3) 
  • One-click Markdown export of your entire Vault 
  • Drag & drop custom sorting
  
  One purchase. No subscription. Includes all future updates.
  
  
  ONE MORE THING
  
  You don't need to keep everything open to remember it.
  
  Close the tab. Keep the thought.

  Stop hoarding tabs. Start folding thoughts.
  
  A browser full of tabs isn’t just clutter — it’s unfinished thinking.
  
  For neurodivergent users, researchers, and knowledge workers, every open tab becomes a background task, quietly draining your attention and your system resources.
  
  ThoughtFold helps you clear your tabs without losing what mattered.
  
  Instead of leaving tabs open or throwing them into bookmarks, you can “hibernate” them — saving both the link and the intent behind it — so you can return later with full context.
  
  How It Works
  Save a tab with an intent (why it matters)
  Hibernate it to close the tab instantly
  Return later and pick up exactly where you left off
  
  No lost context. No mental clutter.
  
  Key Features
  
  Intent-Based Parking
  Save not just the link, but why it mattered.
  
  Tab Hibernation (Free Memory)
  Close tabs while preserving context — reducing both mental load and browser resource usage.
  
  The Vault
  A clean, organized space where your saved tabs are easy to find and revisit.
  
  Drag & Drop Organization
  Structure your workflow in a way that matches how you think.
  
  Markdown Export
  Export your saved tabs into Notion, Obsidian, or your preferred knowledge system.
  
  Hybrid Notes System
  Add context when URLs alone aren’t enough.
  
  Keyboard Shortcuts
  Quickly open and manage your workspace without breaking flow.
  
  Gentle Tab Awareness
  Optional reminders for tabs left open too long — without pressure.
  
  Why ThoughtFold Is Different
  
  Most tab tools either:
  
  save links and lose context, or
  keep tabs open and drain memory
  
  ThoughtFold bridges the gap:
  
  Preserves your intent → clearer thinking
  Hibernates tabs → better performance
  Privacy First
  
  ThoughtFold is fully local-first:
  
  No cloud syncing
  No external servers
  No tracking
  No data collection
  
  Your data stays on your machine.
  
  Pricing
  
  ThoughtFold includes a free version with optional Supporter features.
  
  One-time purchase
  No subscription
  No account required
  Includes all future updates
  One More Thing
  
  You don’t need to keep everything open to remember it.
  
  Close the tab.
  Keep the thought.
  
  Supporter Features:
  
  ThoughtFold includes optional Supporter features that expand customization and workflow flexibility.
  
  The Supporter upgrade will be available shortly. Early users will be able to unlock additional features as development continues.
