Celerity is a Chrome extension that replaces your new tab page with a minimal, keyboard-driven command launcher. Instead of reaching for the mouse every time you open a tab, you type a short key to jump straight to any site or search within it — no clicking required. It is designed for utility over aesthetics: the interface steps out of the way once you learn it, leaving only the speed.

Core ideas

Celerity is built around three principles that shape every design decision:
  • Clean, functional design is the foundation of anything genuinely pleasing. Visual clutter is removed; only what you need is on screen.
  • The interface becomes invisible once learned. After a few sessions the commands feel like muscle memory, not menus.
  • The keyboard is a command surface, not just text entry. Every action — launching a site, searching within it, managing shortcuts, switching themes — is reachable without a mouse.

What Celerity does

Command launcher

Type a short key and press Enter to jump to any site instantly. The 12 built-in shortcuts cover the services most people use every day.

Direct site search

Add a space after the shortcut key, type your query, and Celerity searches that site directly — no need to open it first.

Custom shortcuts

Add, edit, or remove shortcuts to match your own workflow. Any key, any URL — the grid adapts automatically.

Themes

Choose from four built-in themes: system (follows your OS preference), dark, light, and void (a deep black variant).

Built-in shortcuts

Celerity ships with 12 ready-to-use shortcuts so you can start navigating immediately after installation. Any input that does not match a shortcut key falls back to a Google search automatically, so you never need to leave the keyboard to find something.

How the command syntax works

A single space separates the shortcut key from the search query. Type the key, add a space, type your query, and press Enter.
