    I used to save my links to Delicio.us back in the day before they shut it down and erased all the saved links.

    After that I was using Onetab which saves tabs in your browsers cache and there's always a risk to lose them all plus using it on different computers create an issue.

    So I thought there's a need for a new tab organization tool in the market and 4 years ago I designed a chrome extension for managing tabs and links as a side project. I hired a guy and get it developed and put it on chrome store.
    https://chrome.google.com/websto…

    We kept adding features to the point that I was able to sell some features per subscription. As of now it has a little over 3000 users but it's really not a money maker, makes around a recurring $100 a month.
    But I spend about $150 for db/servers/plugins monthly plus the developers time$.

    One of the paid futures are auto saving all your tabs daily. Kind of like chrome's native history feature so it's nothing unique but it saved maybe millions of tabs in my servers so far partially labeled by users.

    In the near future I will either stop developing and eventually shut it down or I will do something that will add more value.

    I was thinking maybe at this point some AI features can be added. Like automatically categorizing/labeling your tabs and organizing them and suggesting new ones etc... I just don't know how feasible and valuable that will be.

    What do you guys think?
    Is there a potential to add more value/monetize?
    I'm open for partnerships as well.
