BrainTool
A browser extension that organizes tabs, bookmarks and notes into nested topics so you can save, close, and later reopen context-specific sets of pages.

A topic-based manager that lets you save tab groups by subject, nest topics for structure, and attach notes or TODOs to any saved page so you can switch contexts without keeping dozens of tabs open.

Built for fast retrieval and power users, it offers incremental search and filtering, keyboard shortcuts, drag-and-drop from the browser bar, customizable visuals (density, font size, dark mode), and topic-level controls to open or close single or multiple tabs at once.

Your data is stored in a plain-text org-mode–compatible file that can be edited, synced and versioned externally (no lock-in). The project is open source and free to use forever, with optional premium features that become restricted after a 30-day trial.
