  description

  30+ tabs open? Fly brings order back automatically.
  
  Fly is an AI-powered tab organizer for people who live in their browser.
  
  Instead of forcing you to manually drag tabs into place, Fly groups your tabs around what you are actually doing, then helps you stay focused without losing context.
  
  Fly now starts with a fast, site-first preview so you can immediately see what’s open, then refines organization with AI for deeper grouping when needed.
  
  Why Fly feels different
  
  Fly is built to reduce tab chaos without adding more friction.
  
  It helps you:
      • group tabs faster
      • reduce mental overload
      • keep related work together
      • return to saved tab sessions later
      • focus on one stream of work at a time
  
  A Google Doc, GitHub repo, and reference page can still belong together when they support the same task. Fly helps organize that work more clearly than basic tab sorting alone.
  
  What’s new
      • Automatic first-run grouping so people see value immediately
      • Faster, clearer top-of-popup activity feedback
      • Site-first preview for better trust and visibility
      • Simpler default flow that groups first, with advanced preview optional
      • Improved detailed grouping for more precise categories
      • Group Tabs + Undo as the primary actions
      • Focus Mode for working on one group at a time
      • Intent Mode for filtering groups by browsing intent
      • Session Rewind and saved layouts
      • Better dark mode and cleaner popup controls
      • Detailed grouping Detailed grouping works best when you have 30+ tabs open.
  
  When enabled, Fly can use more page-level context to create more specific group names and better separation between similar tabs.
     Examples:
         • React Docs, API References, Bug Reports instead of just Development
         • Steam, Nintendo, PlayStation instead of just Gaming
         • SEO, Analytics, Social instead of just Marketing
  
  Focus Mode 
  Focus Mode helps you stay on one thing by tucking away other groups and restoring them later when you’re done.
  
  Session Rewind 
  Fly keeps saved tab layouts so you can restore earlier sessions and recover context more easily.
  
  Undo 
  Groupings can be reversed, so organizing your tabs feels safer and less risky.
  
  Built for people with heavy tab workflows Fly is useful for:
      • researchers
      • developers
      • founders and operators
      • project-based professionals
      • people managing 30 to 200+ tabs
      • anyone tired of Chrome turning into a wall of open tabs
  
  Pricing Free to start. Pro unlocks unlimited grouping and more advanced organization tools.
  
  Privacy 
  Your tab layout stays in your browser. Fly only analyzes tab information when you choose to run grouping features and doesn't store information about your run.  Any history is local to your device.

  🪶 GROUP 100+ TABS BY THE ACTUAL SUBTOPIC
  
  Every other AI tab tool groups your tabs into "Gaming," "Docs,"
  "Email." Fly groups them as "PS2 Games" vs "PS3 Games," "React
  Documentation" vs "Python Tutorials," "GitHub PR Reviews" vs
  "GitHub Docs Reading." Same site can land in different groups
  when it's about different things — because that's how your brain
  actually uses them.
  
  Open Chrome. 47 tabs. Click Fly. In about a second, every tab is
  grouped under a *specifically* named, color-coded label — exactly
  the way you'd organize them yourself if you had the time.
  
  No setup. No drag-and-drop. No workspaces to configure first.
  
  ✨ WHAT MAKES FLY DIFFERENT
  
  - Specific grouping (unique to Fly) — "PS2 Games" vs "PS3 Games,"
    not just "Gaming." "Morning Recipes" vs "Dessert Recipes," not
    just "Recipes." Fly reads page titles + structure to give you
    the actual subtopic. Free.
  - Intent grouping (also unique to Fly) — group by what you're
    *doing*, not what site they're from. Decide, Research, Execute,
    Reference, Admin, Procrastinate. Built for the way an ADHD or
    research brain actually works.
  - Saved sessions — Fly snapshots your window every 10 minutes.
    Crash, restart, accidentally close the wrong window — restore
    with one click.
  - Undo stack — every grouping is reversible. 20 levels deep.
  - Focus mode — collapse every group except the one you're working
    on. The tab strip becomes one project, not seven.
  
  🧠 WHO IT'S FOR
  
  - ADHD adults who treat tabs like external memory.
  - Researchers and PhD students with 50–200 tabs across projects.
  - Devs juggling 5 repos, 12 docs tabs, and 3 Stack Overflow
    threads.
  - Sales / CS / consulting humans who context-switch all day.
  - Anyone whose Chrome window gives them low-grade dread.
  
  🔒 PRIVACY
  
  Fly only sends what's needed to group your tabs:
  - Hostname + tab title (in standard mode)
  - Page outline (in detailed mode, opt-in)
  
  Fly never sends:
  - Cookies, form data, passwords, IDs, browsing history.
  
  Want zero AI calls? Switch to "On-device only" — Fly groups using
  deterministic rules right on your machine, no network call. Works
  on the free tier.

  🪄 ABOUT THE NAME
  
  Fly is short, small, and gets out of the way. That's the whole
  product. One click and your tab strip becomes a flight plan
  instead of a graveyard.
