Talking creative tools with the Arc Browser team

How the team behind Arc is rethinking what a browser can be — and what it means for creative workflows.

The browser is the most-used application on most people's computers, yet it's barely changed in two decades. Arc is trying to change that.

When Josh Miller cofounded The Browser Company, he was not just trying to build a better web browser. He was trying to rethink what a browser could be.

The browser is the operating system now, he tells me. But it still looks and feels like it did in 2008.

Arc uses spaces instead of tabs. A sidebar that evolves with your workflow instead of bookmarks. Features like split-screen built into the core instead of extensions bolted on.

The result is a browser that feels less like a window to the internet and more like a workspace.
