Tab Controller

Description

Let a trusted person control one browser tab — consent-gated, lightweight, secure. Nothing else is ever exposed. 🎯 Tab Controller — hand someone the wheel on one tab, on your terms Tab Controller gives a trusted person real-time control of a single browser tab — clicks, typing, scrolling, navigation — without ever touching your desktop, your files, or any other app. Point it at remote support, walking a customer through a form, pair-programming on a page, or tutoring someone live. One tab, full control, nothing else exposed. ⚡ Lightweight by design There's no background process quietly running in Chrome — Tab Controller only wakes up when you actually start or join a session, and shuts down completely the moment that tab closes. A direct peer-to-peer connection carries input between the two of you when your networks allow it, cutting round-trip lag versus routing every click through a server — and it falls back automatically and invisibly when they don't, so a session never just breaks because of it. No bloat, no idle footprint, no surprises. 🔒 Secure by design, not as an afterthought • Nothing happens until you explicitly approve it — a clear on-screen prompt names exactly what's about to happen before any control is granted. • Chrome's own "being debugged" indicator stays visible for the entire session, on top of Tab Controller's own red banner with a one-click Stop button — two independent signals, always visible, never hidden. • Session pairing runs on a one-time, non-guessable room code — one host, one guest, no one else can join. • No desktop or file-system access, ever. No screen recording without a separate, explicit opt-in. • You can end a session instantly, from either side, at any time — no confirmation dance required. 👀 Live, two-way control — not a passive screen share The person controlling sees a real-time mirror of your tab and can click, type, scroll, and navigate directly from their own address bar. This is actual remote control of a live page, not a one-way video feed. 🌐 Optional domain lock Only sharing one page? Lock the session to that domain. Any attempt to navigate elsewhere gets reverted automatically, and both sides are notified exactly what was blocked and why. 🎥 Recording, two ways (Pro) Licensed users get recording in whichever shape fits the moment: • In-session — record your screen, mic, and call audio while a control session is live, for a full record of a support call or tutoring session. • Standalone — record your own screen anytime, with no session, no pairing, and no one else involved at all. Save it locally and send it to whoever needs it, on your own schedule. Nothing ever uploads anywhere in either case — recordings stay local until you choose to save them. ⏱️ Free to try, no pressure to decide Every session runs fully free for 5 minutes of active control — enough to actually see it work. A $20/year license removes the cap entirely. Who it's for: • Support teams walking a customer through a web app • Freelancers and agencies who need a client to see something live • Tutors and mentors teaching inside a browser • Pair programmers working through one page together Tab Controller never asks for more access than the task in front of it needs — one tab, your consent, nothing more.
