The Tab - New Tab Dashboard for Designers

Your new tab, reimagined. Customisable themes, trending AI tools, design news, colour, font, music & Pomodoro. Fresh every day.

You open a new tab dozens of times a day. What if each one gave you something useful? A live creative dashboard with full drag-and-drop control - choose from 10 colour themes, light and dark mode, and content that updates every day. Trending AI tools, daily design news from publications like It's Nice That and Dezeen - or embed your own RSS feed. Colour palettes, font picks, AI briefing, curated focus playlists, Vimeo, YouTube, and more. When it's time to focus, your Pomodoro timer, scratchpad, and shortcuts are right there too. Everything refreshes daily. Everything is customisable. Everything is free. ★ LATEST UPDATES ★ Updates for July 2026: - Custom shortcut icons - upload your own image for any shortcut, drag icons into any order, and revert to the default anytime. - A first-visit welcome guide, and more Did You Know tips - including how to add your own YouTube channels, RSS feeds and AI tools. - Light mode is now the default for first-time visitors - and your choice is remembered, so if you prefer dark it opens in dark every time. ★ EVERYTHING YOU GET ★ ✔ Personalised greeting with your name and photo ✔ Colour palette generator with AI palettes ✔ Quick converter - px/rem, colour codes, aspect ratios ✔ Clock with Pomodoro focus timer ✔ Scratchpad for quick notes ✔ Two customisable shortcut strips with your own icons ✔ SoundCloud music player ✔ Spotlight - trending creative tools ✔ What's Next - vote on the next feature ✔ Typeface spotlight with free font picks ✔ YouTube - latest from your channels ✔ Vimeo branded content ✔ Design news feed from top creative sites - or add your own RSS feed ✔ Creative Review headlines ✔ AI tools directory ✔ Coolors trending palettes ✔ Daily AI briefing on design trends ✔ Did You Know tips ✔ Visual inspiration, curated daily ✔ Google search bar front and centre ★ MAKE IT YOURS ★ Light or dark mode, five background themes in each, drag widgets into your own order, add and reorder shortcuts with your own icons, set your name and photo, and scale the text to suit your eyes. It remembers all of it. ★ YOUR PRIVACY MATTERS ★ The Tab asks for zero special browser permissions - no access to your history, your tabs, or your browsing data. Your name, photo, and preferences are stored in your own browser and never leave it. One widget is the exception, and it's up front about it: if you turn on the weather strip, your browser will ask to share your location, which is used only to fetch your local forecast and city name - The Tab never stores it. Say no and everything else works exactly the same.
