Pinako vs Workona

Pinako is a browser extension for organizing tabs and sessions in nested trees and restoring closed tabs and windows to their earlier positions. Libraries collect tabs, windows, and notes, including shared workspaces. Notes support rich text; Pro+ adds resizable image, video, and audio embeds stored in Pinako cloud. Search includes natural-language queries and an AI Librarian chat panel, while an MCP bridge connects desktop AI clients and runs locally. AI Search sends the query and relevant context to xAI's Grok API. The free extension stores data locally; the privacy policy says Pinako does not sell data, read page contents, or train AI models on stored data. Backups can use local snapshots or optional services including Google Drive, Dropbox, Filecoin, Arweave, and Storj. The Free plan is free. Pro is $5 a month, Pro+ is $10 a month, Premium is $25 a month, and Enterprise is $60 a month. New subscribers can try Pro and Pro+ monthly plans for 14 days without providing a payment method.

Workona is a collaborative web app for organizing browser work and gathering project resources from other apps into shared spaces. A space can bring together Google Drive folders, Slack channels, task lists, browser tabs and web links. Its optional tab manager organizes tabs into spaces, autosaves them and can restore past sessions for up to 90 days. Space templates can set up project resources, and Workona says Zapier can create content from 6,000+ apps. The integrations page lists Google Drive, Docs, Sheets, Slides, Asana, ClickUp, Monday, Trello and Slack; its help page says spaces currently connect to Asana and Trello among those task apps. Tabs in shared spaces stay private to each user. Workona works on Chrome, Edge, Firefox and Safari across macOS, Windows and Linux, with extensions for Chrome, Edge and Firefox. Individuals can use a free plan with limited spaces and sections. Team costs $12 a month, billed at $12 per user monthly, or $108 per user per year with annual billing.
