Hi Product Hunt, I'm Reji, founder of Hostao.
I run several companies and dozens of websites, and for years my browser was where that work lived: one space per company, the right Gmail and Stripe already signed in. When Arc's makers said Arc stops working on 22 December, I didn't want an AI-first browser with an account. I wanted the spaces back, and less noise.
So we built Tao Browser:
• A space for every company, client or project. Each space has its own cookies and logins, so two Google Workspace accounts sit side by side without colliding.
• Face ID / Touch ID lock for a single tab, a whole space or the app (handy when you share your screen with payroll open).
• Ads and trackers blocked on the device (EasyList + EasyPrivacy).
• No account, no analytics, no crash reporting. The App Store privacy label says "Data Not Collected".
• On Mac: ⌘K for everything, Import from Arc, Client Mode for screen sharing, and a Wrong-Account Guard that warns you before you send from the wrong company's Gmail.
It's built on Apple's WebKit, so Apple patches the engine and the Mac app is a 7 MB download. iPhone and iPad are on the App Store today; the Mac app is a free beta (the Mac App Store version is in review). Honest limits: extensions on Mac are a small reviewed set (uBlock Origin Lite, Dark Reader, Bitwarden), there's no Windows or Android build yet, and Tao isn't open source.
It's free, with no ads and no in-app purchases. What would make you switch browsers for good? I'll be here all day reading every comment.
The wrong-account warning before sending from Gmail is a thoughtful detail. Separate spaces help organize client work, but the send button is where a mix-up really matters.
