Archillect Tab

Archillect Tab is a Chrome extension that swaps out your browser's New Tab page for the most recent image selected by Archillect. Archillect is an AI art curator created by Murat Pak that continuously discovers and shares stimulating visual content, so the extension essentially gives you a live window into that feed every time you open a tab.

The experience is deliberately minimal. The New Tab page is clean and reactive, and the featured image or animated GIF refreshes once every 30 minutes, so you get steady variety without having to configure anything. The extension itself is tiny — around 14 KiB — and the developer has disclosed that it does not collect or use your data, keeping it a pure visual layer on top of the browser.

To use it you need a license key, obtained from the project website linked in the extension's store listing. The listing shows a 4.5-star rating from about 10 ratings and roughly 88 users, with the last update in May 2024. If you enjoy discovering curated art and design imagery and want that surfaced passively throughout your browsing, Archillect Tab is a focused way to do it.
