# Hintword

> Hintword is a free, offline-first productivity workspace that combines a browser tab manager, AI-powered notes, and a Kanban task board. It runs as a Chrome new-tab extension and a web app (hintword.com). Everything works without a connection; data is stored locally and synced to the cloud only when the user presses Sync.

Key facts:
- Tab manager: save open tabs into named, collapsible collections with drag-and-drop; a live "Open Tabs" panel lists every tab currently open in the browser; replaces the Chrome new tab page.
- Notes: rich-text editor (checklists, code blocks, highlights, tags) with one-click AI actions — rephrase, fix grammar, change tone, summarize; share links, comments, and text-to-speech read-aloud.
- Live collaboration: share a note with a person (view / comment / edit permission) or a whole organization and co-edit it in real time with named colored cursors and live presence, across the web app and extension; organizations support member roles (owner / admin / member).
- Tasks: drag-and-drop Kanban board (To-do / In progress / In review / Done) with subtasks, due dates, archive, and notes linked to tasks.
- Offline-first: all features work with zero connection; manual sync with a per-run sync history.
- Pricing: free. Sign-in is via Google.
- Platforms: Chrome extension (new tab) and web app; the extension is listed on the Chrome Web Store.
