User reviews
This is an atypical review, as I seldom discuss books or software. However, I am compelled to share my experience with the Braintool extension, which has significantly enhanced my productivity and organization. Over a year ago, I was struggling with managing 84 open tabs in Vivaldi (prior to their introduction of workspaces). This led me to discover Braintool, a solution surpassing traditional bookmark managers.
It is important to distinguish that Braintool is a topic manager rather than a bookmark manager. This is because it can store not only bookmarks but also information packets, allowing users to organize research data alongside bookmarks in a hierarchical manner—a powerful feature for a browser extension.
Braintool provides clear tutorials explaining its features and operations. My 84 tabs were organized within Braintool's topic manager after completing the tutorials in under 30 minutes, leaving only three necessary tabs open. This efficient workflow has been maintained.

感觉这个扩展程序好牛，看视频也感觉很强大，但是可惜的是没有中文版，显示不了中文，完全看不懂。不然我估计会用到这个书签管理器。可惜，哎

Although its a semi difficult productivity tool/extension, its because of the seemingly endless options of functionality and possibilities. Use your database for Bookmarking, clips, notes/docs/forms and messaging....ANYTHING. Thank you
