TabVault review
A focused Chrome workspace manager with useful free search, backups, and exports.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
TabVault is a Chrome extension for people who separate browser work by project. It saves Chrome tab groups as named workspaces, then supports one-click switching, keyboard shortcuts for cycling or jumping directly to a workspace, and automatic restoration of tabs and workspaces. Developers and other Chrome users who regularly move between projects get a focused way to keep related tabs organized without treating every open tab as part of the same session.
The pricing structure starts with a Free plan at $0 forever. It includes up to 10 workspaces, local storage and search, automatic backup and export, and light and dark themes. Pro is available at $3 per month with annual billing, $36 per year with annual billing, or $4 per month with monthly billing. Paid features include unlimited workspaces or sessions, depending on the plan description, plus cloud synchronization across devices, automatic backups, export functionality, and priority support. The practical distinction is clear: the free tier supports local organization, while Pro is aimed at larger workspace collections and multi-device access.
TabVault’s strongest fit is its narrow Chrome workspace workflow. Named project areas, saved and restored tab groups, direct keyboard navigation, and JSON and Markdown export give users several ways to manage browser context. Local search and automatic backups also make the free tier useful before an upgrade is needed. However, the product is limited to Chrome and does not present a broader browser or application ecosystem. Choose TabVault if your work already lives in Chrome and you want lightweight project separation. Consider an alternative if you need cross-browser coverage or a wider workspace system beyond browser tabs.
