Oasis: A Browser That Thinks in Projects, Not Tabs
Oasis introduces a new way to organize your digital work: Hubs. Instead of endless tabs, you get focused workspaces for each project or topic. Shalvi Save explores why this approach could finally bring order to browser chaos.
I have used a lot of tools that promise to organize my digital life. Tab managers. Bookmark sorters. Extension chaos. All of them have some value, and all of them eventually fall apart under the weight of how we actually work. But after trying Oasis, an enterprise browser built around a grouping system called a Hub, I think we're finally seeing a browser that gets it. Here's why the Hub system might be the best shot we've had at truly structured, focused browser organization—without it feeling like extra work.
We Don't Need Infinite Tabs. We Need Context.
Most browsers treat your session like a whiteboard: scribble everything on it and hope you remember where you left off. Hubs flip that completely. A Hub is a focused workspace—a container for everything related to a project, topic, or workflow. Instead of tabs just piling up, I started thinking in themes:
- Market Research
- Quarterly Planning
- Customer Feedback
Each one had its own set of links, its own flow, and its own mental context. This might sound small, but it completely changed how I approached focus. I wasn't jumping between ideas. I was staying inside one.
No More "I'll Keep This Tab Open Just In Case"
We've all done this. Left 20 tabs open not because we're using them right now, but because we might need them later. It's digital hoarding driven by a lack of trust in our tools. With Hubs, saving a tab isn't a commitment to chaos—it's an intentional act. I knew exactly where it was going. I tagged it (internal, legal, draft) and moved on. Later, when I needed it, it was there—with context, not just clutter.
It's Not Flashy. It's Just Thoughtful.
The Hub system isn't trying to dazzle you with flashy AI demos—but that doesn't mean it's just a manual folder system. Oasis uses AI to make your experience smoother: it can assist with organizing content, suggest relevant hubs, and help surface the right links when you need them. It's not trying to guess everything for you—it's just quietly making the process more intuitive. That balance between control and assistance? It's a breath of fresh air.
But what makes it feel powerful is that it finally treats the browser like what it actually is for many of us: a control center. A place where knowledge work happens. Where research, meetings, docs, and dashboards all intersect. And when you treat it that way, suddenly the idea of organizing by Hub makes a lot more sense than organizing by window or tab group.
Is It Perfect? Not Yet. But It's Close.
Yes, there's room to grow. I'd love to see smarter recommendations, hierarchical tags, or even memory cues (like "last visited during Q1 planning"). But even without that, Hubs are lightyears ahead of most productivity add-ons or native tab systems. For the first time, I felt like my browser was built around how I think, not just how the internet works.
Final Thought: Hubs Are What Bookmarks Should Have Been
In a world where everything is digital and work is done through the browser, Hubs are the first feature I've seen that really respects that reality. They're structured without being rigid. Useful without being noisy. And best of all, they let me step away from my screen and come back later—without feeling lost. More browsers should take notes.
