About workona

We built Workona to help you organize your work in the browser. You can use our workspaces (smart browser windows) for projects, repeating activities, or simple dashboards. The tabs you have open in each workspace are remembered the next time you come back, so you can always pick up right where you left off.

    It depends. If you are just opening the workspace for the first time, then we will just be loading up the URLs. We do preserve tab state (form data, page scrolled, text selected, e…

    Thanks! We'll add Firefox support soon. In fact, they have some additional APIs that we're pretty excited about.

    You should check out Workona's workspaces. We've built some of what you've mentioned as a Chrome extension backed by a web app. Our workspaces (persistent windows with names) remem…

    Set up what you're going to work on next before you take a break. So much easier to jump right back into being productive.

    Glad you like it! You’re right that onboarding can be tough for users with lots of tabs. We're working on a few things that will make it easier. The intended initial set up flow is…

    We couldn't agree more, Michail. So much so that we founded a company (Workona Inc.) and built pretty much exactly what you've described. Workona's extension turns your browser win…
