Protocol Tab

Track habits every time you open a new tab. A simple habit builder that lives in your browser's new tab page.

PROTOCOL TAB - A HABIT BUILDER THAT LIVES IN YOUR NEW TAB PAGE Track your habits every time you open a new Chrome tab. === ALWAYS THERE, NEVER FORGOTTEN === The biggest problem with habit tracking apps? You have to remember to open them. Protocol Tab solves this by living in the one place you're guaranteed to see it: your browser's new tab page. No app to remember to open. No separate website to visit. Just open tabs like you already do, and your habits are there, reminding you to stay consistent. === A HABIT BUILDER, NOT JUST A TRACKER === Protocol Tab isn't another habit tracking app. It's a habit builder—designed to help you create lasting habits, not just track them for a week and give up. The goal isn't to run every day for a month. The goal is to make a smaller habit and do it forever. Every feature is intentionally designed to help you build habits that stick: • Start small with manageable habits • Build gradually over weeks and months • Stay realistic about what you can actually maintain • Celebrate long-term success to stay motivated === CORE PRINCIPLES === ONE HABIT AT A TIME You can't land five planes at once. Protocol Tab helps you focus on what matters now, with a queue system for future habits. Build one habit, master it for a few weeks, then add the next one. THE COUCH TO 5K APPROACH Start small, master it for 4 weeks, then gradually increase difficulty. Build on success, not struggle. Meditate for 5 minutes, not an hour. Go to the gym twice a week, not seven days. These are habits you can actually maintain forever. HABIT STACKING WITH GROUPS Group related habits into routines like "Morning Routine" or "Evening Routine" to build powerful, automatic sequences that stick. WEEKLY AGGREGATIONS See every week you've ever tracked—not just today or this week. Seeing 8 green weeks in a row reminds you: you're the kind of person who does this. You've proven it. Keep going. === KEY FEATURES === • New Tab Integration - Your habits appear every time you open a new tab • Queue System - Separate current habits from future ones to avoid overwhelm • Nuanced Tracking - Mark habits as completed, partial, or failed for honest progress • Habit Groups - Organize related habits into meaningful routines • Weekly View - See your entire habit history for motivational fuel • Monday Starts - Schedule new habits to start on future Mondays for natural boundaries • Cross-Device Sync - Your habits sync across all your Chrome browsers when signed in • 100% Private - All data stored in your browser, no accounts, no external servers === HOW IT WORKS === 1. Install the extension 2. Open a new tab 3. Create one habit (yes, just one!) 4. Track it throughout the week 5. Get that week green 6. Build from there That's it. Start simple. Stay consistent. Build habits that last. === WHO IS THIS FOR? === Protocol Tab is perfect for anyone who: • Has downloaded habit apps that ended up forgotten and unused • Wants to build habits that actually stick long-term • Feels overwhelmed trying to change everything at once • Spends significant time in their browser throughout the day • Values privacy and wants data stored locally • Needs constant, gentle reminders without notification spam === THE POWER OF THE NEW TAB === You're already opening dozens of tabs every day: • Checking your email • Starting your work • Looking something up • Taking a break • Browsing during lunch • Starting your evening wind-down Every single time you open a new tab, there are your habits. These micro-moments of reflection, repeated dozens of times per day, create constant awareness of your habits without being annoying or interruptive. This is why it works: Protocol Tab meets you where you already are. No new routine to build just to track your routines. === REALISTIC EXPECTATIONS === Protocol Tab helps you be realistic about what you can actually maintain. You want to build habits you'll do forever—not habits you'll do for a week and then abandon. By focusing on one habit at a time, starting small, and building gradually, you create real, lasting change. It's not about being perfect. It's about being consistent. It's about making incremental progress week after week. It's about actually getting it done. === SIMPLE, PRIVATE, EFFECTIVE === No accounts. No external servers. No complex setup. All your data stays in your browser and syncs across your Chrome devices when signed in. Completely private. Just you, your habits, and consistent progress. Start building habits that last.
