Move anything
Drag the clock, calendar, links and every widget where you want them, or start from a ready-made layout.
A better new tab.
Kufu opens in about a tenth of a second and puts your clock, calendar, weather and links exactly where you want them. No account, no ads.
Free. Windows, macOS and Linux. Works in Chrome and other Chromium browsers.
Keys: every digit and link is a physical key that squashes and springs back.
Kufu is Japanese for ingenuity: finding a better way. Keep what you use on a new tab, make it instant, and move the rest wherever you like.
Everything on one page, in your order
Four designs
Raised keys, flat paper, soft clay, or liquid glass that bends your wallpaper. Light and dark for each.
Your wallpaper
Use an Unsplash collection, your own photos or videos, or plain dark. Dim it and add real film grain.
A clock with options
Keys, plain, glass numbers or analog, with five calendar styles and world clocks. Set the size and weight.
Weather at a glance
A small pill that opens into the full forecast, with six styles of animated icons.
Quick links
Links as keys, with folders and groups. Import your bookmarks or save your open tabs in one click.
Focus tools
Pomodoro, tasks, notes, countdowns, progress bars and ambient sounds. All off until you want them.
Command palette
Press Ctrl K to search your links, run actions, do math and convert units.
Profiles
Keep separate setups for work and home, and switch by hand or by the time of day.

Your new tab stays yours
Kufu keeps your settings in your browser and, if you want, syncs them through your own Chrome account. It asks for extra permissions only when you turn on a feature that needs them.
A few features talk to other services when you use them: weather comes from Open-Meteo, wallpapers from Unsplash, custom fonts from Google Fonts, and search suggestions from DuckDuckGo.
Install in three steps
Kufu isn't in the Chrome Web Store yet, so you add it by hand. It takes about a minute.
