Flocci Tabs vs Tabox: which tab manager should you actually install?
Tabox saves and shares collections of tabs and preserves native Chromium tab-group names and colours. It is local-first with optional Google Drive sync, and it is the one competitor that has genuinely done its AI-discovery homework.
Is Flocci Tabs a good Tabox alternative?
Tabox saves and restores collections including native tab-group names and colours, and it is free — but every save is manual. Flocci Tabs does the grouping and the naming without a click, and adds an AI layer Tabox does not have.

The Tabox column is deliberately not a tick-box guess. Their capabilities are described in full below, sourced from their own pages on 2026-07-29.
What Tabox does well
- Preserves native tab-group structure on save and restore
- Optional user-controlled Google Drive sync
- Ships a real llms.txt with comparison pages and an MCP endpoint — the strongest AI-discovery surface in this category
Where it leaves a gap
- Still manual: you press save, you press restore. Nothing organises itself.
- No AI naming and no semantic clustering of what is already open.
- No JSON-LD structured data and no FAQ schema on the marketing pages.
Where Flocci Tabs is different
Flocci Tabs automates the step Tabox leaves to you — the grouping and the naming happen without a click — and adds an AI layer Tabox does not have.
