About Us

What We Do

URLflows is a studio building browser extensions that help developers and engineers manage their work — small, focused tools that live where you already build. Our developers are based in Michigan, and we focus on one thing: reducing the friction between intent and action across the development and engineering workflows you run every day.

Our flagship is Team Bookmarks by URLflows — shared team bookmarks with private on-device AI — where most of our work goes today. Alongside it we ship Next Up — a meeting countdown you download as a single HTML file — plus Browser Support Kit, Page Pruner, Docs Dimmer, Meeting Assistant, Meeting Tab Closer, Playfull, Feedback Smack, Copy:Paste+ and Noggin. Each tackles a different corner of how you work on the web with the same design philosophy: no bloat, no accounts where they aren't needed, no dark patterns. Everything we make is private, free, forever — no paid tiers, no upsells, nothing locked behind an account.

Where you can run our tools: Chrome and Chromium-based browsers (Edge, Brave, Opera, Arc, Vivaldi, and the rest of the family).

What We've Shipped

Team Bookmarks by URLflows

Flagship

Our flagship — and the product we develop most actively, so new tools and fixes land here first. Shared bookmarks for a whole team or a team of one, read straight from a spreadsheet you already control — it needn't be public, since the bar reads it through your existing Google session and respects your sheet's permissions. Surfaced in a slim, edge-docked bar on every page, grouped by tab and filtered by tag. Smart bookmarks use private on-device AI to auto-file every page you open into tidy categories. Rounded out with a utility belt: multi-mode screenshots, window resizing, a color picker, history search, and quick links to your AI & Google tools — all of it just as useful when the "team" is you. No URLflows backend or account. Private, free, forever.

Next Up by URLflows

A countdown to your next meeting that stays in view. Next Up shows a big timer for your next Google Calendar event, changes color — with an optional sound and flash — as it gets close, and puts a Join button on the timer for Google Meet, Zoom, Microsoft Teams and Webex links. A day agenda, timer-only mode and more than 30 themes make it easy to keep beside your work. It's a single HTML file you download and open in Chrome, with nothing to install, and it reads your calendar through a small read-only script in your own Google account, so your events never pass through us. Private, free, forever.

Browser Support Kit by URLflows

The small fixes and checks you reach for every day, gathered into one toolbar panel. Grab the full page, the tab, an area or a whole screen; zoom one part of a page; mask personal details before you share your screen; and hide what's in the way. When something breaks, record a HAR file, list the page's console errors by the site or extension they came from, find out why copy and paste isn't working, clear a site's cookies and cache, and switch extensions off to rule them out. An optional, experimental Ask AI talks a problem through with Chrome's on-device model, starting from what you've already tried. Everything runs on your computer; nothing is collected or transmitted. Private, free, forever.

Page Pruner by URLflows

Point at the thing bothering you and make it disappear. Click any element on a page — a cookie banner, a sticky header, a sidebar full of noise — and it's gone, with no filter syntax to learn and no list to maintain. What you hide stays hidden on that page through reloads and restarts, and you can restore one element at a time or everything on the page at once. Every hidden element is remembered on your own device; nothing is collected or transmitted. Private, free, forever.

Docs Dimmer by URLflows

Takes the glare out of Google Docs, Sheets, and Slides — bright white by design, and hard on the eyes after a long day. A dimming slider darkens the page, a warmth slider shifts the color toward amber, and a one-click dark mode inverts the document to a true dark theme. Choose which editors it touches, pause it anytime, and reset to defaults — all live, with no reload. Drawn as click-through overlays so editing is never affected. Nothing leaves your browser. Private, free, forever.

Meeting Assistant by URLflows

A focused Chrome extension for Atlassian Jira. Surfaces subtasks directly under their parent cards on boards, and as a hover tooltip on the backlog — sortable by status, key, summary, and assignee. No more clicking into every parent to see what's underneath, and a little done celebration when you drag an issue home. Private, free, forever.

Meeting Tab Closer by URLflows

The smallest tool in the family, doing one thing well: when you click a Zoom meeting link, your browser opens a tab to launch the app and then leaves it sitting there empty. Meeting Tab Closer closes that leftover tab the moment the meeting launches and restores focus to the tab you were on before — no clutter, no lost focus, no manual cleanup. Everything runs locally; nothing is collected or transmitted. Private, free, forever.

Playfull by URLflows

The streams you listen to while you work end up scattered across bookmarks and tabs. Playfull keeps your radio stations, live channels, playlists and podcasts in one list, plays any of them with one click in the toolbar panel or a compact mini player, and shows on the toolbar icon how many are playing, so nothing plays on unnoticed. It starts you off with a hundred live music and public radio stations. Your library stays on your computer; nothing is collected or transmitted. Private, free, forever.

Feedback Smack by URLflows

"It looks wrong" is not a bug report. Feedback Smack turns feedback on any web page into something a developer can act on: what should change, a picture of exactly where, and every browser, system and page detail they would otherwise have to ask for. Copy it, download it, or send it to a Google Sheet your team shares. There's no account and no server of ours; nothing leaves your computer until you share a report. Private, free, forever.

Copy:Paste+ by URLflows

Copy from anything in dark mode and its colors come along, turning up as dark blocks and pale text when someone reads your email or ticket on white. Copy:Paste+ drops them as you paste, shows every copy before you paste it, lets you paste any recent one with a hotkey, and flags stray spaces and sensitive details like card numbers and access keys first. It never reads your clipboard; copies stay in your browser's memory until Chrome closes, and nothing is collected or sent. Private, free, forever.

Noggin by URLflows

The prompts that work best end up scattered across chat histories, notes and config folders. Noggin keeps them in one place with the instructions, skills, emoji and Slack messages you reuse, each with blanks to fill in, ready to insert into ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini or any AI tool. It copies AI answers ready for Slack and rewrites text in your own voice with the AI built into Chrome. There are no accounts and no servers; your vault stays on your computer. Private, free, forever.
