Tabl is an innovative multi-player web browser designed to transform individual web browsing into a synchronized team experience. By integrating real-time collaboration features directly into the browser, Tabl enables teams to work together seamlessly across any web application or tab, eliminating the need for third-party tools. This approach mirrors the collaborative interface of platforms like Figma but extends it to all browser-based workflows.
Key Features and Functionality:
- Shared Window Collaboration: Users can invite teammates to a shared browsing session where all participants can view and interact with the same tabs. Real-time cursor tracking, voice communication, and screen sharing are enabled by default, fostering a cohesive collaborative environment.
- Switch Control: Instead of remote-controlling another device, Tabl allows users to seamlessly transfer control of a shared tab to another participant. This feature opens the tab in the participant's own browser instance while maintaining session continuity for all collaborators.
- Privacy-First Architecture: All user data, including cookies and passwords, are stored locally on the device. URLs are hashed to prevent visibility, ensuring collaboration occurs without exposing sensitive information.
Primary Value and Solutions Provided:
Tabl addresses the inefficiencies of fragmented collaboration workflows by unifying communication and collaboration directly within the browser. It eliminates the need to switch between multiple apps like Slack, Zoom, and screen-sharing tools, thereby streamlining the collaborative process. This is particularly beneficial for remote and hybrid teams that rely on web-based tools for tasks such as design reviews, code pair programming, or document editing, and require real-time interaction without disrupting workflows. By operating as a full-stack browser, Tabl offers deeper control over tab management and cross-tab interactions, providing a non-invasive, efficient, and secure collaborative experience.
