Background
Tablerone was born out of frustration with hoarding tabs, losing useful links to crashes, and wasting time looking for them across apps.
Dissatisfied with tab management extensions available at the time, a tab-hoarding designer envisioned a better solution and pitched it to a couple of developer friends.
The rest is less cluttered than history and better than bookmarks.

Business model
Tablerone is available as donationware because we doubt you are willing to pay for something you can get for free from our competitors.
This model allows you to use it free of charge without any up-front risk and pushes us to make it worth being proactively paid for according to your satisfaction and means.
