What is Unscrambled Tabs?
Unscrambled Tabs is the Chrome extension half of the eggz.ai product. While eggz runs in your browser as the main web app (invoices, Xero, documents), Unscrambled Tabs runs inside Chrome as a Manifest V3 extension. It helps you wrangle browser workspaces, tabs, and memory — and when you connect your eggz account you also get one smart AI chat (no key needed), document upload, and bill capture right from the side panel. Prefer to bring your own Anthropic key instead? That works too.eggz and Unscrambled Tabs share branding and product vision, but they are different surfaces: the web app is for accounting workflows; the extension is for tab and workspace management in Chrome. This section of the Help Centre is only about the extension.

Tab discard behaviour is implemented with Chrome’stabs.discard API — discarded tabs remain visible; when you activate a tab, Chrome reloads the page like a normal refresh.
