Your day, on every new tab

A browser tab is the emptiest surface you own. You open a new one dozens of times a day, and it shows you nothing: a blank field, a grid of sites you already know how to reach. That moment is a small hole in the day, and the day quietly falls through it.

So we filled it with the thing you are trying to hold on to. Reassign is a Chrome extension now, and every new tab is your day.

The new tab is the real dial

Open a tab and your 24-hour dial is there. Not a screenshot of it, and not a widget that lags a step behind the app. The extension frames the live dial, so what you see is what is true right now: your events, your colours, the now-indicator moving, the same day you left in the other window.

Signed out, you still get a dial. It runs on a sample day rather than dropping you at a login wall, because a new tab should never be a chore. Installing the extension and the new-tab dial are free, and they need no account. If you are weighing this against a start-page dashboard, the Momentum comparison sets out where each one wins.

Send the page you’re reading to your plan

The other half is capture. You are reading something worth an hour of your week: a long article, a PR, a recipe, a booking page. Today that turns into a tab you keep open and eventually lose. In Reassign it becomes a block.

Three ways to do it, whichever is closest to your hand:

• The toolbar button, for a click.
• A right-click on the page.
• The keyboard, with ⌘/Ctrl+Shift+U.

Any of them opens a small card. Send the page to today, or add it to your Inbox for when there is room. The page rides along as a clickable link on the block, so you never lose where it came from.

There is one more entry point, and it is the fastest. Type reassign in the address bar, press space, then say it in plain words. “Deep work 9 to 11” lands on the dial straight away, with a notification and an undo. A looser note opens the capture card first, so nothing gets guessed.

What’s free, and what’s Pro

I would rather state this flatly than let you find the wall by hitting it.

Installing the extension and the new-tab dial are free and need no account. Adding a page connects the browser to your Reassign account. Sending a page to your Inbox is Pro, because the Inbox is Pro. When your plan gates a write, the extension says so and points you to upgrade. It does not fail quietly.

What it can reach, and what it watches

The extension talks to one place: reassign.app, its only host permission. The new tab frames the live app and never records the pages you browse. Sign-in is a standard browser OAuth flow, and you can revoke it at any time. The full detail is in the extension section of the privacy policy.

That was the whole design brief. Not another tab to manage, and not another thing watching you browse. Just your day, on the surface you already open more than any other.
