Is Scratch Tabs really free?

Yes, Scratch Tabs is completely free and will remain free forever. No premium features, no paywalls, no hidden costs. We believe powerful developer tools should be accessible to everyone.

If the app has helped your productivity, consider supporting it with a coffee.

How does client-side processing work?

All processing happens directly in your browser using JavaScript. No data is sent to any server, ensuring complete privacy. Your JSON, passwords, and all other data stay on your machine.

Do I need to create an account?

No account required! Scratch Tabs works entirely offline and stores your data locally in your browser. Just launch the app and start working immediately.

What browsers are supported?

Scratch Tabs works on all modern browsers including Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Edge. We recommend using the latest version for the best experience.

Can I use it offline?

Absolutely! Once loaded, Scratch Tabs works completely offline. All features including editing, AI summary, and data conversion work without an internet connection.

How do I share my work?

Scratch Tabs uses privacy-first URL sharing. You can generate shareable links where compressed data is embedded directly in the hash fragment (#), ensuring it never reaches our servers.

What makes it different from other tools?

Unlike other tools that require accounts or send data to servers, Scratch Tabs is 100% client-side. It combines data editing, conversion, and specialized engineering tablets in one unified, privacy-focused environment.

I'm not a developer, is it for me?

Absolutely! Many non-developers use Scratch Tabs for its Pomodoro timer, secure password generation, clipboard management, and focus-oriented text editing.

How can I provide feedback?

We welcome feedback via GitHub Issues or our Discord community.
