BookHub rethinks Chrome’s new tab page with AI‑assisted bookmarks and a cleaner home screen

BookHub is a Chrome extension that replaces the browser’s default new tab page with a more structured, AI‑assisted home screen. It’s been picking up coverage on extension review sites thanks to the way it turns messy bookmark collections into readable cards and automatically surfaces the sites you visit most. BookHub stays in sync with your existing Chrome bookmarks, but groups them into clear categories so you no longer lose track of saved links.

The custom new tab view includes basic widgets—clock, local weather, a simple to‑do list—as well as a unified search bar that can query both the web and your bookmarks. A sidebar lets you save the page you’re currently viewing with a single click; BookHub’s AI suggests the category, title and a short description, which users can edit before saving. For screen‑sharing and presentations, a privacy mode blurs bookmark cards so others can’t see your browsing habits. Combined, these touches make BookHub feel less like a cosmetic dashboard and more like a practical upgrade to Chrome’s start page for people who live in their browser all day.
