Browsilla is now available as a free browser extension for Google Chrome, transforming the new tab page into a clean, distraction-free productivity dashboard.
Browsilla replaces the standard new tab with a lightweight interface designed to help users stay organized and focused throughout the day. It brings together essential elements such as a task list, quick-access bookmarks, local weather, an inspirational quote, and search – all in a single minimalist view.
While working on larger projects, I needed a simple way to stay organized in the browser without adding more complexity or distractions.”
— Henning Kruthaup
Browsilla is built with privacy in mind. It does not require an account, does not include third-party tracking, and does not store personal data on external servers. User data, including tasks, is stored locally in the user’s own browser.

“Browsilla started as a tool I built purely for myself,” said the creator of Browsilla, Henning Kruthaup. “While working on larger projects, I needed a simple way to stay organized in the browser without adding more complexity or distractions. At some point, I realized others might find it useful too – so I made it available publicly.”
Designed to be fast and lightweight, Browsilla avoids the clutter, news feeds, and visual noise common in many new tab extensions.
Key features include:
– Built-in task list for day-to-day organization
– Quick access to frequently used websites and bookmarks
– Local weather widget
– Daily quote for focus and inspiration
– Integrated search
– Minimalist, distraction-free design
– Support for 50+ languages
