Kairo is an open-source, workflow-first browser built for people who spend a significant part of their lives online. Traditional browsers are designed around websites and tabs, forcing users to manually organize dozens of pages, switch contexts constantly, and manage growing tab chaos. Kairo takes a different approach by organizing browsing around workflows, projects, and intent instead of individual websites.
Whether you're building a startup, studying for exams, conducting research, shopping, planning a trip, or managing multiple projects, Kairo helps keep each activity organized in its own dedicated space. Features like Spaces, AI Tab Groups, Split View, Smart Search, Session Restore, and Project Folders are designed to reduce context switching and help users focus on what they're actually trying to accomplish.
Kairo also aims to make browsing more private and transparent through Kairo Shield, a privacy layer focused on blocking trackers, analytics scripts, third-party scripts, and browser fingerprinting attempts. Rather than simply being another browser, Kairo is being built as a productivity workspace where browsing, researching, learning, and creating happen naturally.
Built with Electron, React, TypeScript, and modern web technologies, Kairo is developed entirely in public as an open-source project. Every feature, design decision, discussion, and contribution helps shape its future. The goal is simple: transform the browser from a collection of tabs into an intelligent workspace that understands context, organizes workflows, and helps people get meaningful work done.
