Chrome Extension · Free & Open Source

47 tabs open.
Zero you need right now.

TabLater closes them — and brings each one back the moment it actually matters. Natural language scheduling, notes that travel with the tab, 100% on your device.

When you'll reach for it

Four tab situations. One fix.

Waiting on something

Shipments, flight confirmations, trial-cancellation pages, support tickets — tabs you'll need when something changes, not right now. Close them. They'll be there when it's time.

Thursday day before flight day 13 of 14

Deadlines, with a buffer

A form due Friday 5pm. Taxes next week. A contract renewal in three months. Bring the tab back early enough to actually do the thing — not the day of.

Friday 2pm April 10 in 90 days

Follow-ups that don't slip

A LinkedIn profile to message in two weeks. A job posting to apply to after the weekend. A cart you'll buy from on payday. Back when you're ready — not a moment before.

in 2 weeks Monday 9am on payday

Recurring by default

Weekly reviews. Monthly invoicing. Daily standup docs. Quarterly reports. Schedule the tab once, and it returns on rhythm — forever.

every Mon 9am every Fri 4pm 1st of month
Features

Built for people with too many tabs.

Natural language scheduling

Type the way you think. TabLater parses expressions like in 2h, at 9am, Friday 5pm, or next month — and confirms the exact time before you commit.

2h tomorrow next Mon Fri 5pm daily 8am

Private by default

Saved tabs live in chrome.storage.local. No account, no syncing, and no tab URLs, titles, or notes sent to TabLater.

Notes travel with the tab

Attach a note when you snooze a tab. When it comes back, so does the reason you saved it. No more staring at a reopened tab thinking “…why did I keep this?”

“Reply with pricing” “Still on sale?” “Follow up with Sarah”

Nothing ever lost

Every reopened tab stays in your local history. Search back through everything you've ever snoozed — it's all still there.

Your full later-list

Every queued tab in one view, with time, note, and one-click reschedule. The whole queue, ordered and editable.

Recurring tabs

Daily reports, weekly reviews, monthly check-ins — schedule them once, and they'll reappear on rhythm.

Export & import

Your data is portable. Export the full queue and history as JSON or CSV — take it anywhere, back it up, never locked in.

How it works

Three clicks. That's the whole thing.

  1. 1

    Open a tab you're not ready for.

    Read it later, remember it tomorrow, revisit it every Monday — you decide.

  2. 2

    Say when to bring it back.

    Pick a preset or type “in 2 hours”, “next Mon 9am”, or “every Friday”.

  3. 3

    Forget about it.

    The tab closes instantly. TabLater reopens it at the exact moment — and pings you.

Privacy

Nothing leaves your browser. Ever.

TabLater does not send saved tab URLs, titles, or notes to TabLater. There is no account and no sync. Your tab data lives in chrome.storage.local on your machine; only simple anonymous usage events are tracked.

No account. Install and use.
No cloud. No sync, no servers.
Minimal analytics. Anonymous usage counts only, never tab content.
Open source. Read the code on GitHub.

Tabs you don't need now, back when you do.
