myArc

myArc,
forever yours.

An open-source browser bringing back Arc, with no account required and optional AI.

How you browse is part of how you work. It should outlast the company behind your browser.

Arc is being sunsetted, and its code was never open, so nobody can keep it going. myArc is open source, so anyone can.

What we hold to

  • Yours to keep

    Your workspace stays on your computer, in files you own. Export is on the way.

  • Keep what worked

    If you used Arc, you already know myArc. Where they differ, onboarding shows you.

  • AI by choice

    AI is off until you turn it on. Then you pick: a local model, your own API key, or a hosted option, and you decide what it can see.

  • Built in the open

    The plans and decisions are public too, not just the code. If I stop, anyone can pick it up where I left off.

Where it stands

  • Works now

    Spaces, pinned tabs and Favorites, the Library, tabs that survive a restart, and AI agents that browse in a Space of their own.

  • Next, for alpha

    Split view, Little Arc, Arc import, ad and tracker blocking on by default, and onboarding.

  • After alpha

    Builds for Windows and Linux.

Read along

  • Roadmap

    Milestones, dependencies and the gates a release has to pass.

  • Architecture

    Why Chromium, and what Rust owns.

  • Arc migration

    What an Arc import brings over, what it leaves out, and how export will work.

  • AI and services

    Provider choices, privacy rules and how a hosted option would be paid for.

  • CLI and MCP control

    How the terminal and AI agents drive the browser, and what you let them do.

  • Contributing

    How to help without drifting from the product.

What works today

Not yet: split view, Little Arc, Arc import, ad blocking.
