Everything's there.

Stop juggling many apps and tabs every morning. Start Page HQ turns your browser into a personal workspace — notes, tasks, feeds, tools — that syncs across every device you touch.

Decorative dots

Already on every device you own.

Laptop, phone, tablet — your browser is the one app on every device. Add the extension or just open the web app.

Feeds, productivity, dev tools, AI — everything you used to scatter across a dozen tabs, in one place.

Make it yours.

Separate pages for work, news, and side projects. Dark or light. 8 accent colors. Style every widget your way.

One start page. Fewer tabs.

Stop tab-hopping between dozens of apps. Start Page HQ replaces or consolidates the tools you use every day — right in your browser.

Loved by people who live in their browser.

I used to open 6 different apps just to start my morning. Now I open one tab and everything is there - news, tasks, calendar, weather.

The dev tools alone are worth it. JSON formatter, regex tester, base64 - things I google for 10 times a day, right on my start page.

I switch between my MacBook, work PC, and iPad constantly. My workspace follows me everywhere without installing anything.

I set up different pages for classes, research, and personal stuff. Like having three desktops in one browser tab.

Replaced Feedly, a notes app, and three bookmark toolbars. The RSS and Hacker News widgets are exactly what I needed.

The $49 lifetime deal was a no-brainer. I've tried Momentum, Tabliss, and a dozen others. This is the first one that actually stuck.

One plan. Everything included.

Every widget, every feature, every device.

Getting Started

Yes. Click "Try Live Demo" to launch a full demo in your browser - no account needed. You can explore all non-AI widgets, customize your layout, and see if it fits your workflow.

Extensions are available for desktop Chrome (and Chromium browsers like Edge, Brave, Arc), Firefox, and Safari. On any other browser, you can use the web app directly or set it as your start page URL in browser settings.

Sign in on any browser and your pages, widgets, settings, and data sync automatically. Add a link on your laptop, it appears on your phone. Rearrange widgets on your tablet, the change is there on your desktop.

The browser extension is the primary way to use Start Page HQ - it replaces your new tab page so your workspace is there every time you open a tab. But it also works as a regular web app if you prefer not to install anything.

Widgets & Features

Feeds (RSS, Hacker News, Reddit, YouTube, Podcasts, Substack, News, GitHub, Product Hunt), Productivity (Tasks, Todo, Google Calendar, Habits, Pomodoro, Search, Stopwatch, Countdown), Notes, Tools (JSON, Regex, Diff, Base64, QR, Markdown, Units, Image Compression, Audio, IP, Color Picker, AI Humanizer), Creative (AI Image, Canvas), Discover (AI Diary, Quote, Quiz, Riddle, Summary, Story, What If), Finance (Currency, plus live stock, crypto & forex charts via TradingView), and Time & Weather (Date & Time, Calendar, World Clock, Weather).

Add links manually or organize them into groups with custom icons and layouts using the Links widget. Browser bookmark import is not currently supported.

Pages let you organize widgets into separate contexts - like Work, News, Tools, or Projects. Switch between them with a single click. Each page has its own set of widgets and layout.

A Container holds two widgets side by side in a two-column layout. This lets you mix full-width and split-width widgets on the same page for flexible, dense dashboard layouts.

Pricing & AI Credits

AI credits power features like image generation (from 10 credits), translation (1 credit), and background removal (2 credits). The Monthly plan includes 500 credits per month, Annual includes 5,000 per year, and Lifetime includes 10,000. You can buy additional credit packs anytime.

Monthly is $3.99/month with 500 AI credits that renew each month. Annual is $25/year with 5,000 AI credits that renew each year. Lifetime is a one-time $49 payment with 10,000 AI credits. All give full access to every feature. The Lifetime deal is a limited launch offer.

All non-AI widgets continue to work. You can purchase additional credit packs at any time. There is no interruption to your workspace.

You keep access until the end of your billing period. After that, your data remains safe - you can resubscribe anytime to pick up where you left off.

Customization & Data

Dark and light themes, 8 accent colors, per-widget styling (solid, clear, or outline), individual widget colors, grid or list views, and widget-specific layout options. You can also enable a two-column page layout for denser dashboards.
