Download

The installers are not code-signed yet. On Windows, "Windows protected your PC" may appear: choose More info, then
Run anyway. On a Mac, open Solamar once from System Settings > Privacy & Security > Open Anyway. The Windows app
updates itself from new releases; the Mac app tells you when one is out.

What's in it

  • Your Arc spaces in one click: spaces with their colours and icons, pinned tabs and folders, read from Arc's
    sidebar file on your computer. Bookmarks and history from Chrome, Edge, Brave, Firefox and Safari; passwords from
    a CSV export.
  • Tabs you can tell apart: a top bar with space pills and a row of titled tabs, or Arc's vertical sidebar.
    Today tabs archive themselves, tabs you don't use go to sleep, split view, a command bar (Ctrl+T).
  • Ad and tracker blocking built in, YouTube included, with a per-site switch.
  • Chrome extensions from the Chrome Web Store, a password vault sealed with your system's keychain (Windows
    Hello before showing a password), Peek (open links over the page), Boosts (your own colours, fonts and
    CSS for any site), a mini player, and everything back after a crash.
  • AI, off until you turn it on: a local model through Ollama or Claude with your own API key. Ask about a page,
    draft replies, or let the agent do it for you on the page, step by step. Claude Code can drive Solamar through
    a local MCP server.
  • No account, no sync server, no telemetry.
