About
Toby organises browser tabs into collections that live on the new-tab page — drag tabs in, tag them, let them close, and reopen the whole set later or share it with a teammate. Arthur Camara prototyped it over a weekend in 2016 while at Axiom Zen, the Vancouver venture studio that later spun out Dapper Labs, and Benny Giang joined to run its launch and growth. It was Product Hunt's number-one Chrome extension of 2016. In March 2017 Giang and Camara demoed it at TechVancouver, walking through lists, tags, saved sessions and one-click context switching, then announcing a Vancouver-only closed beta of the team-sharing features with three local companies: Archive Digital, CodeCore and MotionHall. The extension is still published and updated — the Chrome Web Store listing was last updated in June 2026 and now names Launch Labs Inc as publisher.

Built inside Axiom Zen, the Vancouver venture studio; no outside funding round has been reported
