Start Page HQ

Replace your new tab with a customizable dashboard — 50+ widgets for feeds, productivity, dev tools, and AI

Start Page HQ replaces your new tab with a fully customizable dashboard. Build the workspace you actually want — choose from 50+ widgets, organize them across multiple pages, and pick a theme that fits how you work. Create separate pages for work, personal use, study, or specific projects. Each page has its own layout, theme, and widget mix. Drag widgets to rearrange them, resize them to fit your screen, and hide what you don't need. Some of the widgets included: - Tasks — kanban boards, todo lists, and project planning with drag-and-drop. - Notes — rich-text notes with formatting, lists, and code blocks. - Quick note — a one-click scratchpad for anything you don't want to lose. - Calendar — see your upcoming events at a glance, with optional Google Calendar sync. - Feeds — follow any RSS source, with built-in connectors for sites like Hacker News, Reddit, and YouTube channels. - News — headlines from your chosen sources, with optional AI summaries. - Podcasts — subscribe to podcast feeds and play episodes right from your start page. - Weather — current conditions and forecasts for any location. - World clock — track time across multiple cities and time zones. - Focus timer — Pomodoro-style work and break intervals to help you stay on task. - Habit tracker — log daily habits and review streaks over time. - Countdown — count down to deadlines, launches, trips, or any future date. - Stopwatch — a simple stopwatch when you need to time something quickly. - Daily quote, quiz, and riddle — small daily prompts to kick off your day. - Bookmarks — group your most-used links into clean, themed bookmark sets. - Search — search the web, or your own bookmarks, from any page. - Currency converter — live exchange rates between any two currencies. - Unit converter — convert length, weight, temperature, and more. - IP info — your public IP, approximate location, and connection details. - Uptime monitor — track availability of your sites and services. - Stripe sales — see live revenue numbers if you use Stripe for billing. - Embed — embed any external page or service directly into a widget.
