The idea behind Shiori

I kept every tab open because closing one felt like losing it. A research thread, a half-read article, a checkout page I meant to come back to. By the end of a week I had forty tabs across three windows, and I could not find any of them.

Bookmarks never helped. They save an address and nothing else: not why I saved it, not what I meant to do next, not which project it belonged to. So I stopped saving things, and kept them open instead.

That's why I started building Shiori.

The new tab is the page I see most often, so it became the place where saved tabs live, arranged by project, with the notes and to-dos that explain them. Saving a tab should feel as safe as leaving it open.

Once saving felt safe, closing tabs did too. The sidebar shows what is open right now, and a whole window can become a saved session with one click. Your workspace lives in your browser and works without an account; Pro keeps it the same on your other devices.

“Shiori means bookmark in Japanese. The goal is a new tab that feels like a calm desk, not another inbox.”
