Multi-session browsing: This feature allows users to run multiple sessions within the same window.

Task management integration: Ghost Browser can integrate with project management tools like Trello, Asana, and others directly within the browser. This enhances productivity by allowing seamless workflow management and reduces the need to switch between applications.
Privacy and security: Ghost Browser emphasizes security with features like isolated sessions, secure connection protocols, and customizable Ghost proxy control. Enhanced security features protect your data and online activities, which is crucial for professionals dealing with sensitive information.
Chromium extensions: Since it's built on Chromium, Ghost Browser supports all Chrome extensions. Users can customize their browsing experience with a wide range of extensions available in the Chrome Web Store.
