Bring your own API keys for OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, and Mistral and switch models on a per-message basis. **Capabilities** - Bring your own API key — no markup, no Flippy proxy - Switch models per message: GPT-4o, Claude 4, Gemini 2.5, and more - Parallel replies from multiple LLMs side-by-side (Max plan) - Conversation history stays local in your browser - Code highlighting, markdown rendering, and copy-as-snippet **Why it matters** Stop tab-hopping between ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, and Gemini. AI Lab embeds a complete chat workspace into the page you already see most: your new tab. Press your shortcut, ask, ship. Because Flippy uses *your* API key, you pay providers directly at developer rates. No Flippy markup, no monthly cap, no opaque billing. The keys live in your browser only — never on our servers. Power users on the Max plan can fan out a single prompt to multiple models in parallel and compare answers side-by-side. It's the fastest way to know which model actually has the best response for your task. ### Focus Mode - Slug: `focus-mode` - Category: Productivity - Page: https://hiflippy.xyz/features/focus-mode - Tagline: A distraction-free workspace with daily goals and visible progress. **What it does** Set what you'll accomplish today and let your new tab keep score. Focus Mode turns intent into a habit by surfacing your goal every single time you open a tab. **Capabilities** - Daily goal tracking with progress visualizations - Distraction-blocking layout: chrome only, no feed - Streaks that survive across devices via Supabase sync - Customizable affirmations and prompts - One-key shortcut to enter and exit focus **Why it matters** Most productivity tools track tasks. Focus Mode tracks intent — the one thing you committed to doing today. Every new tab becomes a polite reminder. Pair Focus Mode with the Pomodoro timer for a complete deep-work loop: set a goal, start a sprint, finish strong. Streaks visualize consistency over weeks, not just days. Built for people who do creative or technical work — writers, engineers, designers, founders — and who know that most distraction happens between intentions, not during them. ### Pomodoro Timer - Slug: `pomodoro` - Category: Productivity - Page: https://hiflippy.xyz/features/pomodoro - Tagline: Focus sprints with a tab-icon timer you can see at a glance. **What it does** The Pomodoro Technique, but better integrated. Your tab favicon becomes a live countdown so you know exactly where you are without switching back. **Capabilities** - Customizable session lengths (15/25/45/90 minutes) - Live countdown rendered into the browser tab icon - Sound + system notification on session completion - Long-break tracking across multiple sprints - Persistent state — close the tab, sprint keeps running **Why it matters** The Pomodoro Technique works because it externalizes focus. Flippy externalizes it even further: the timer is rendered into your favicon, so it's visible even when you're deep in a different tab. No back-and-forth to check time remaining. Sessions persist across tab closes via the extension service worker — close the new tab and your Pomodoro keeps ticking. Open another and pick up where you left off. Pair with Focus Mode and Todo for a complete deep-work surface: pick the next todo, start a Pomodoro, ship it. ### Todo List - Slug: `todo` - Category: Productivity - Page: https://hiflippy.xyz/features/todo - Tagline: A draggable, celebratory todo list that lives in every new tab. **What it does** Quick-capture tasks, drag them to reorder, and enjoy a small celebration animation when you complete one. The friction-free todo list, finally where you actually look. **Capabilities** - Drag-and-drop reordering with smooth physics - Completion celebrations that aren't obnoxious - Resizable widget — tuck it where it fits your layout - Synced across devices when signed in - Keyboard-only flow (j/k to navigate, x to complete) **Why it matters** Most todo apps live in another tab. Yours doesn't. The Flippy todo widget sits on your new tab page so it's the first thing you see and the last thing you check. We obsessed over micro-interactions: completion animations that reinforce the win without becoming noise, drag physics that feel like paper, keyboard shortcuts that turn capture into muscle memory. ### Calendar - Slug: `calendar` - Category: Productivity - Page: https://hiflippy.xyz/features/calendar - Tagline: 1-month and 12-month views to plan close and far at the same time. **What it does** A draggable calendar widget with both month and year views. See this week and next quarter at the same time without leaving your new tab. **Capabilities** - Toggle between 1-month and 12-month views - Drag the widget anywhere on your tab - Resize to fit alongside Pomodoro and Todo - Quick-jump between months with arrow keys - Today highlighted with subtle animation **Why it matters** A 12-month calendar is rare in browser tools and surprisingly powerful. Quarterly planners and people who think in milestones get the spatial overview they need without opening a separate planner app. Drag and resize to integrate with the rest of your Flippy layout. Combine it with Focus Mode goals to align daily intent with longer arcs. ### Smart Content Library - Slug: `content-library` - Category: Content - Page: https://hiflippy.xyz/features/content-library - Tagline: Save anything. Auto-categorized. Never lost again. **What it does** Right-click any link to save it to Flippy. We auto-categorize into smart folders, let you drag and drop, and provide one-click 'open all' for batch sessions. **Capabilities** - Right-click context-menu save from any page - AI-categorized folders (Work, Design, Learning, Inspiration) - Drag-and-drop reorganization across folders - Sort by date, alphabetical, or recently viewed - Open All — launch a folder of links in one click - Full-text search across saved content **Why it matters** Bookmarks are where good content goes to die. Flippy fixes that with auto-categorization on save and a Tours system that resurfaces what you've forgotten. When you right-click and save, AI categorizes into the most likely folder. Wrong? Drag it. Over time the model learns your taxonomy. 'Open All' opens every link in a folder at once — perfect for daily reading queues, research sessions, or onboarding new team members through curated stacks. ### Tours - Slug: `tours` - Category: Discovery - Page: https://hiflippy.xyz/features/tours - Tagline: Rediscover what you saved with Step Tours and Auto Tours. **What it does** The killer feature against bookmark graveyards. Tours surface your saved content on a schedule or randomly with each new tab. **Capabilities** - Step Tours — guided sequence through a folder - Auto Tours — random gem in every new tab - Schedule tours for specific times of day - Exit anytime — never feels intrusive - Cross-folder tours (Max plan) **Why it matters** We save things with intent and forget them with discipline. Tours invert the dynamic: saved content comes back to you, gently, when you're already opening a new tab anyway. Step Tours are great for structured material — onboarding stacks, course material, a research thread. Auto Tours are great for serendipity — that article you saved three months ago that's perfect for what you're working on today. ### Backgrounds - Slug: `backgrounds` - Category: Customization - Page: https://hiflippy.xyz/features/backgrounds - Tagline: Animated, curated, or your own. A new tab that earns being looked at. **What it does** Choose from animated WebGL backgrounds, curated photography, gradients, or upload your own. New random background daily if you can't decide. **Capabilities** - Animated WebGL backgrounds (low GPU footprint) - Curated photography rotation - Gradient builder with custom palette - Upload your own image - Daily-random mode **Why it matters** Aesthetics matter. The new tab is the most-opened page on your computer — it should reward attention, not punish it. Backgrounds are GPU-aware and pause animation when the tab isn't focused, so battery and frame rate stay healthy. ## Pricing - Free: €0/mo or €0/year - Pro: €7/mo or €70/year - Max: €20/mo or €200/year ### Pricing matrix - Saved Content (Content Management): Free=Unlimited, Pro=Unlimited, Max=Unlimited - Step Tours (Content Discovery): Free=true, Pro=true, Max=true - Randomized Step Tours (Content Discovery): Free=false, Pro=true, Max=true - Priority Support (Support): Free=false, Pro=true, Max=true - AI Lab (Productivity): Free=true, Pro=true, Max=true — Chat with GPT, Claude, and other AI models.
