Orbit Station — New Tab OS

Tracking since Apr 1, 2026.

Changelog

• May 10, 2026
  description

  Open your entire workflow in one click. Tab stacks, command palette, notes, focus timer. Local-first, no account, no tracking.
  
  Orbit Station turns every new tab into a one-click workflow launcher. Build tab stacks that open your entire morning routine, deep-work session, or meeting prep in a single click. Search, launch, and navigate with a keyboard-first command palette. A privacy-first dashboard for the new tab — local-first by default, with no account, no tracking, and no cloud sync.
  
  ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
  
  WHY ORBIT STATION
  
  🚀  ONE CLICK = ENTIRE WORKFLOW
  Tab stacks open 5, 10, or 20 tabs at once. Save your morning routine, your dev environment, your research mode, your meeting prep — and launch the whole set with one click from any new tab.
  
  ⌨️  KEYBOARD-FIRST COMMAND PALETTE
  Press Cmd/Ctrl+K from any new tab to search every link, launch any stack, jump to any workspace, or run any action. No mouse required.
  
  🌌  THREE WAYS TO SEE YOUR STUFF
  Galaxy view (visual, animated), Grid view (fast, dense), and List view (keyboard power-user). Switch instantly with a keystroke.
  
  🛠️  EVERYTHING IN ONE PLACE
  Built-in notes, todos, focus timer (Pomodoro), and an optional weather widget — all in the sidebar. No more juggling six extensions.
  
  📦  IMPORT YOUR EXISTING SETUP
  Import your Chrome bookmarks or your currently open tabs in two clicks. Recent tabs are one click away from the sidebar.
  
  🔒  TRULY LOCAL-FIRST
  Your links, workspaces, notes, and todos all live in your browser via chrome.storage.local. We literally cannot see them. No account, no sign-in, no cloud sync, no advertising, no data sale. By default the extension makes zero external network requests — three optional features can be enabled from Settings (Weather, anonymous activation analytics, post-uninstall feedback survey), each off by default and fully described in the privacy policy.
  
  📤  YOUR DATA, YOUR FILE
  One-click JSON export of your entire setup. Open it in any text editor. Move it between machines. Delete it forever — your data is genuinely yours.
  
  ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
  
  PERFECT FOR
  
  • Founders and operators running multiple browser-based tools
  • Developers who context-switch between repos, docs, and dashboards
  • Designers, writers, and researchers managing many open references
  • Students and knowledge workers organizing reading lists and study sessions
  • Anyone who replaced the default new tab with Momentum or Toby and wants more
  
  ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
  
  PRIVACY YOU CAN VERIFY
  
  • No accounts, no sign-in, no cloud sync
  • No advertising, no data sale, no tracking pixels
  • All your content (links, workspaces, notes, todos) stored locally in your browser via chrome.storage.local — never transmitted
  • Three optional features, all OFF by default and toggleable from Settings → Privacy:
     – Weather widget (sends only your latitude/longitude to Open-Meteo, no API key, no tracking)
     – Activation analytics (anonymous event names + day number + extension version, max once per 24h, never URLs or content)
     – Post-uninstall feedback survey (only runs if you visit the page and click submit)
  • Full privacy policy: https://orbitstation.app/privacy
  
  ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
  
  PERMISSIONS, EXPLAINED
  
  • storage — Saves your setup locally on your device
  • tabs — Powers "Import Open Tabs" (only reads when you trigger an import)
  • sessions — Powers "Recent Tabs" in the sidebar
  • bookmarks — Powers "Import Bookmarks" (read-only unless you opt in)
  • search — Hands off command-palette queries to your default search engine
  
  None of these permissions are used for background monitoring or data collection.
  
  ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
  
  WORKS WITH
  
  Works on any modern Chromium-based browser. Firefox and Safari support are on the roadmap.
  
  ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
  VERSION UPDATE NOTES
  
  v1.2.0 — Drag any planet without it sticking to the cursor. Pick from 12 colors per planet. Import recently-closed tabs (new "Recent" source). Add browser tabs as moons orbiting an existing planet, right from Quick Add. Plus a "+" on Recent Tabs in the sidebar to drop a closed tab straight into a galaxy.

  description

  Turn every new tab into your personal command center.
  
  Orbit Station replaces your default new tab with a beautiful, fully offline workspace hub — built for anyone who lives in their browser. Whether you're a marketer juggling campaigns, an executive managing priorities, a creative hopping between tools, or a student staying organised — Orbit Station keeps everything you need one click away.
  
  Three Ways to Work
  
  Galaxy View — Your workspaces visualised as a living solar system. Clusters orbit the canvas, each one a world of your saved links. Click to dive in. The most immersive way to see everything you have.
  
  Grid View — Clean, fast tile layout. Your links organised into sections, at a glance. Great for getting things done quickly.
  
  List View — Minimal and keyboard-friendly. Every link in a clean row with tags. Navigate your whole workspace without touching your mouse.
  
  Everything Built In
  
  • Workspaces — Create separate spaces for every area of your life. Switch instantly with ⌘1–9.
  • Quick Add — Press ⌘⇧A to save the current tab as a link in seconds.
  • Import — Pull in open Chrome tabs, your entire bookmarks library, or paste a batch of URLs.
  • Command Palette — Hit ⌘K to search, navigate, add links, and switch views.
  • Notes — Persistent scratch pad, always one click away in the sidebar.
  • To-dos — Simple task list that lives alongside your links.
  • Focus Timer — Built-in Pomodoro timer. Stay in the zone.
  • Weather — Current conditions at a glance.
  • Streak Tracker — See your daily opening streak. Build the habit.
  • Full Keyboard Navigation — Press ? for the shortcut cheatsheet.
  
  Keyboard Shortcuts
  
  G — Galaxy view
  D — Grid view
  L — List view
  ⌘K — Command palette
  / — Focus search
  ⌘⇧A — Quick-add link
  ⌘1–9 — Switch workspace
  N — Notifications
  I — Import tabs & bookmarks
  ? — Keyboard shortcut cheatsheet
  
  Privacy First, Always
  
  • 100% offline — No account, no sign-in, no cloud sync required.
  • All data stored locally — Your workspaces, notes, and tasks never leave your device.
  • No tracking — Zero analytics, zero telemetry, zero ads. Ever.
  • Your search, your way — Orbit Station does not modify your default search engine. All searches use Chrome's built-in Search API, fully respecting your existing browser settings.
  • The only external request is to Open-Meteo for weather — no personal data sent.
  
  Built With Care
  
  Orbit Station is crafted with a deep respect for your time and attention. No dark patterns. No upsell nags. No subscription. Just a genuinely better new tab — free, forever.
