Try It
Overview
interTabs was first built for HOF Hacks 2025, a hackathon at NYU, as a submission for the track AI & Automation. We imagined it as a easy-to-use tab manager extension empowered by AI. Eventrually, we won 3 out of 6 total awards at HOF Hacks, including First Place Hack, Best UI/UX Design, and Best Beginner Hack (our team was one of the youngest among the contestants).
After the hackathon, I wanted to launch interTabs as a product. So I integrated the Auth0 Authentication framework for users to create accounts, and the Stripe payment framework for paying and managing subscritions. On June 5th, interTabs was officially launched on ProductHunt (https://www.producthunt.com/products/intertabs), and gained over 100 upvotes within 24 hours.
In a few days, interTabs supported other browsers such as safari and firefox, as well as Chromium browsers like Edge.
