Tango, the browser extension and desktop application that automatically generates how-to guides while you work, announced it has been named to the Chrome Web Store Favorite’s of 2022 list after just one year in the market. The Chrome editorial team named Tango among its favorite tools based on its extension quality, compliance with program policies, end-to-end user experience, user delight, relevance and more. Today’s recognition tops off the end to an impressive year of company growth, industry accolades and product milestones.

“For Tango, 2022 felt like catching lightning in a bottle, except it kept happening over and over,” said Ken Babcock, Co-Founder and CEO of Tango. “I’m most proud of the team we’ve built and how we’ve focused on our customers. Building a beloved product requires that combination, and we’ve just scratched the surface. As we look ahead to 2023, we’re motivated to deliver time-savings to creators – and soon consumers – of knowledge. For organizations, we will showcase how documentation is the number one leading indicator of operational excellence.”

The rise of remote and hybrid work has accelerated the importance of process, knowledge sharing and documentation in successfully scaling teams and companies. Tango removes the friction from process documentation by making it easy to create how-to guides with perfectly cropped screenshots in seconds—empowering teams with the knowledge they need to succeed.
