Spaces that keep your contexts separate
Work, personal, hobbies, side projects. Each gets its own dedicated space with separate cookies, history, and organization. Finally, true context switching.
Complete isolation
Each space is a separate browsing world. Cookies, history, and tabs stay separate. Your work Google account and personal Gmail never collide again.
Instant context switching
Jump between work mode and personal mode in one click. No logging out, no browser profiles to manage, no confusion about which account you're using.
Dedicated environments
Set up spaces for specific purposes. A space for client work, another for side projects, one for personal browsing. Each with its own bookmarks, folders, and setup.
How spaces work
Separate browsing worlds for different parts of your life
Create a space
Set up spaces for different areas of your life. Work, personal, a specific client, or a hobby project. Name them clearly so you know exactly what each space is for.
Customize your environment
Each space gets its own folders, bookmarks, and logged-in accounts. Log into your work Google account in your work space, personal account in your personal space. They never interfere.
Switch instantly
Click a space to enter that context completely. Your work space disappears, your personal space appears. All tabs, all folders, all logged-in accounts. One click, complete transition.
Who benefits from spaces
Anyone juggling multiple contexts will find relief
For remote workers
Keep work accounts completely separate from personal browsing. Close your work space at 5pm and your personal space opens automatically. True work-life boundary.
For freelancers
Create a space for each client. Different Slack workspaces, different Google accounts, different project management tools. Switch clients without the login dance.
For developers
Separate spaces for different tech stacks. One space for your React project with its documentation, another for your Python backend. Clean mental separation.
For content creators
A research space, a publishing space, a personal space. Keep your content calendar, inspiration sources, and actual creation tools in dedicated contexts.

| Context boundaries | All tabs mixed together | Visual and functional separation between spaces |
| Cookie isolation | Shared cookies across all browsing | Each space maintains its own cookie jar |
| Visual clarity | Same interface, hard to tell contexts apart | Each space has distinct visual identity |
Common questions
How is a space different from a folder?
Folders organize tabs within a space. Spaces are completely separate browsing environments. Think of folders as filing cabinets within an office, and spaces as entirely different office buildings. Each space has its own cookies, history, and can contain multiple folders.
Can I have the same website open in different spaces?
Absolutely. You can be logged into your work Twitter in your work space and your personal Twitter in your personal space simultaneously. Each space maintains its own login state, so no more logging in and out repeatedly.
How many spaces can I create?
Create as many spaces as you need. Some users have just two (work and personal), while others create spaces for each client, project, or area of interest. Pola is designed to handle many spaces without slowing down.
