Intent Tab

Make every new tab a calm productivity workspace for daily intents, focused work, useful tools, and meaningful progress.

Open your next tab on purpose. Intent Tab transforms Chrome's New Tab page into a calm, customizable productivity workspace. One daily intent stays at the center while Goal Loops, Focus Sessions, search, Quick Tools, and progress insights remain close when you need them. Instead of maintaining another crowded dashboard, use the page you already open throughout the day to choose a direction, protect time for the next meaningful action, and record evidence of progress. **Start every tab with direction:** - Choose an intent set that matches how you want to work, lead, create, or grow. - Start free with Confidence Builder and Growth Mindset, or unlock the complete library of 100+ curated intent sets with Pro. - Move through concise, first-person intents in sequential or random order. - Copy useful intents, save favorites, enter Zen mode, and navigate with keyboard shortcuts. - Edit your greeting directly from the dashboard or personalize it in Settings. - Follow a guided, resumable first-run setup for your greeting, intent set, theme, and Tools Dock. **Turn outcomes into Goal Loops:** - Use the optional Outcome → Direction → Milestones → Session → Evidence workflow. - Define what success looks like, connect the goal to an available intent set, and break progress into structured milestones. - Each milestone holds its own title, status, linked intents, reflection prompts, and scoped tasks. - Plan sessions with target cutoff, preferred weekdays and time, sessions per week, duration, and weekly minutes. - Run the session inside the Focus Chamber, then use Close the Loop to capture outcome, evidence, and the next action. - Review session history with Start, Edit, Move, and Skip actions; regeneration preserves completed and skipped records. - Use the Full View workspace for milestone editing, evidence review, and session management without leaving the New Tab. - Completing the current milestone automatically promotes the next pending milestone. - Create and run manual Goal Loops on Free; Pro adds editable AI-assisted plan drafts, the complete intent library, custom supporting intents, and optional Drive sync. - AI suggestions never activate a goal, start work, or change a schedule automatically. **Protect time for meaningful work:** - Start a Focus Session with configurable focus and recovery durations. - Keep the current goal, session outcome, supporting intent, and definition of done visible in the Focus Chamber. - Preserve timer and session context across New Tab refreshes and service-worker restarts. - Receive a notification when a focus or recovery phase ends. - Use breathing and hydration tools during recovery breaks. - Start without a goal whenever you only need a simple timer. - Pro adds six packaged ambient soundscapes and optional site protection for up to 50 user-saved distraction sites. Site protection is optional. Intent Tab requests site access only after a Pro user chooses to enable protection, applies it only to saved sites during an active focus phase, and pauses it during recovery. **Keep everyday tools within reach:** - Configure nine Quick Tools: Clock, Calendar, Goal Loop, Focus Timer, Breathing Exercise, Intent Quote, Focus Sessions, Water Tracker, and Daily Intention. - Keep up to five widgets open at once. - Set the right-edge Tools Dock to Hidden, Hover, or Always visible. - Manage Tools Dock settings in a dedicated flat workspace tab with visibility controls and tool checkboxes. - Search Google with autocomplete suggestions and open browser-provided top sites from the edge dock. - Pro adds up to 12 custom quick links, three day counters, and 30 days of daily reflection history. **Review progress without turning it into pressure:** - See your current streak, intents viewed, favorites, and today's activity. - Review a locally calculated 14-day activity chart and milestone progress. - Use the tabbed Reflection Journal as an evidence workspace: - **Today:** daily editor, evidence metrics, and today's linked Goal Loop sessions. - **Focus Sessions:** pending reflections first, filterable by Goal, Intent, and Outcome. - **Daily Log:** daily history and compact 30-day calendar in one scrollable row. - **Weekly Review:** all-goals overview with per-goal metrics, plan completion, session coverage, blockers, next actions, and drill-down detail. - Navigate tabs with roving Arrow/Home/End keyboard navigation. - Review on-device weekly patterns such as planned versus completed sessions, protected time, recurring blockers, and the current next action. **Shape the atmosphere:** - Choose from 12 handcrafted visual themes. - Give each theme its own Quiet, Balanced, or Vivid tonal palette—true light-to-deep palette changes rather than a color filter. - Use one of two Free packaged photo backgrounds. - Unlock all eight packaged backgrounds, daily photo rotation, and your own uploaded background with Pro. - Built-in photos use subtle per-photo accent colors and readability-aware scrims without filtering or recoloring the image. - Personalize text size, intent presentation, rotation behavior, Focus Session preferences, and Tools Dock behavior. - Keep normal workspace appearance separate from the active Goal Loop's optional theme and background. **Unlock more with Intent Tab Pro:** - Complete library of 100+ curated intent sets. - Unlimited custom intent sets and custom Goal Loop supporting intents. - Up to 100 editable AI-assisted intent-set or Goal Loop drafts each month. - Adjustable 15–120 second rotation and morning/evening set rotation. - Six ambient Focus Session soundscapes. - Optional site protection for up to 50 saved sites during focus. - All eight packaged photo backgrounds, daily rotation, and your own upload. - Up to 12 custom quick links, three day counters, and 30 days of daily reflections. - Optional cross-device backup and sync through your private Google Drive app data folder. **Private by default:** - Core intents, manual Goal Loops, Focus Sessions, Quick Tools, activity insights, and packaged media work locally. - No ads and no browsing-history collection. - Preferences, sets, goals, plans, session evidence, reflections, and tool data stay on the device by default. - Network access is used only for features that need it: search suggestions, Google Sign-In, account and entitlement checks, AI generation, checkout, and optional Drive sync. - Drive sync is off by default and requests the narrow `drive.appdata` scope only when you enable sync or review a returning backup. - Backup contents are written directly to Intent Tab's hidden, app-private folder in your Google Drive. The Intent Tab backend stores only backup availability and the last successful sync time—not your archive contents. - AI setup can receive fields you choose to submit, but daily-journal text and session-reflection evidence are not sent for AI drafting. Intent Tab combines a calm New Tab experience with a practical execution loop: intent gives direction, focus protects attention, and reflection creates evidence.
