Story
-
1999We Started Optimal Access in 1999 as a software application company. With the explosion of information we had a vision to give every user the ability to customize their desktop their-way. We pioneered multi-level tabbed browsing by grouping tabs outside the browser window. Our solution is unique to this day.
-
2000-2005Our pioneering tabbed browser system allowed users to integrate and access all their favorite folders and web pages in tabs. Instead of clicking through folders structures or web-pages users could create tabbed groups and multiple portal pages to manage and access tens of projects with ease.
-
2006From the beginning we had the idea of social bookmarking, that allowed users not just share links but the context. This idea has emerged as KBucket. The combination is perfect.
-
2008-2014We continued to develop various curation products based on our original Optimal Access program, KBucket was developed during this time. KBucket is a curation platform where curators publish their research on any topic on this site. Our goal was to give users the tools to curate and index the web one user at a time.
-
2014 - Present dayStarted developing Optimal Access as a Firefox extension. The Product was released in March of 2016. Our Browser tool is a Firefox extension and our sharing tool is a WordPress plugin. We are working to develop our solution for other platforms.
