  SnapBox speeds up repetitive actions on websites. Open multiple links, click buttons, or select checkboxes – simply by dragging with the right mouse button.
  
  For pages with vertical checkbox lists (e.g., webmail), SnapBox provides an additional checkbox stripe: Select one checkbox, hold Shift, and move the mouse vertically to mark more checkboxes in the same column.

  RIGHT-CLICK DRAG GRID
  
  • Open multiple links in new tabs at once
  • Quickly select checkboxes, buttons, or radio buttons
  • Open high-resolution image URLs directly from thumbnails (e.g., Amazon, Geizhals)
  • Optional: Automatically copy links to the clipboard while dragging (Shift/Ctrl/Alt)
  • Domain-based link throttling to prevent IP bans: links are opened in configurable groups per domain with randomized pauses between them
  • Throttle overlay with live countdown, progress indicator, and a skip button to open remaining tabs immediately
  • Exception list for trusted domains (regex patterns) that bypass throttling entirely
  • Tabs always open in the originating browser window, even when switching focus to another window during throttled sessions
  • Overlay links (e.g., Reddit's full-post card links) are automatically detected and skipped, so only visible headlines and buttons are captured
  • Adjustable delay for opening tabs and clicking buttons
  • Only elements of the same type are selected as the element where the drag started (prevents mixed selections)
  • Also works with Shadow DOM content
  • Optional modifier key (Shift/Ctrl/Alt) to activate drag selection
