Most of what most people do, who sit 8h a day in front of a computer, is in the browser. So I see where this product idea is coming from...

Is this true? Most of mine is in a text editor. In a previous role, it was in Excel. My partner spends her day in Power BI, etc etc. Are we outliers? What jobs are mostly in browsers instead of task-oriented specific other software tools?

Sales (CRMs are all in browser now), Marketing (entire stack, include some creative (Canva) is in browser now), Strategy is half in powerpoint/xls (creating content) and half in browser (researching info), HR (Workday, LinkedIn, etc.), product (Figma, Miro, Aha!, Linear), support (Asana/Jira) probably spend at least 50% of their working time in browser. Also the time people are at their desk but not working, is usually in browser (check news, stocks, blogs, personal email, etc.)
