What is Skipper?
Skipper is a Chrome extension built in collaboration with Carnegie Mellon scientists to provide intelligent tab management tailored for neurodivergent users but beneficial for anyone overwhelmed by open browser tabs. It leverages smart automation to monitor tab activity, automatically saving and closing inactive tabs and preserving them for future access so users never lose track of important content. Skipper further enhances organization by automatically grouping related tabs into sessions, enabling users to seamlessly switch contexts and return to ongoing tasks with ease.
With effortless switching between different projects and the ability to share organized tab collections as folders, Skipper aims to reduce 'tab anxiety,' declutter digital workspaces, and empower users to focus on tasks that matter most. Syncing across browsers and simple sharing features make collaborative work and personal productivity more manageable and less chaotic.
