Product Engineering Team Overview

Thanks for checking out Product @ The Browser Company! At BCNY, Product is a dynamic collaboration between Engineering, Product Design, Membership (Research + User Experience) and Data.

• We value creative iteration and prototyping
• We ship new features weekly
• We cultivate a close relationship with users to integrate their feedback into our product development

We’re an organization that acts as a unified team covering all surfaces of the product at Arc, divided into pods that focus on specific elements like mobile platforms or integrations. Pods typically operate like a smaller version of the department, where every pod has a researcher, developer, and data engineer to work on a specific functionality.

🚢 What we’ve shipped

In the past year, we’ve shipped multiple new products and countless features. Below are just a few examples of work we’re proud of:

• **Arc Max:** Arc Max is a collection of features that save you time and boost your browsing experience – like “Ask on Page,” which allows you to ask a question and let Max answer it for you. Or “Tidy Tabs,” which automatically renames tabs with shorter titles when you Pin them.

  • Who made it happen: Rosey, Nathan, Patrick and Nate

• **Arc Search:** Arc Search is a modern, AI-enabled mobile browser that adapts to your needs and browses for you. With intuitive AI summarization, Arc Search condenses webpages into concise insights, delivering the perfect answer to any question you have.

• **Arc for iPad:** The Arc app for iPad is the same Arc you know and love from our desktop app, but it's been adapted to take full advantage of your iPad's spacious screen — crafting a comfier browsing experience.

  • Who made it happen: Julia

• Arc Sync: Arc Sync ****is **a secure sidebar sync, without the need for iCloud. Arc Sync is available across our Desktop apps and Arc Search - for both Mac and Windows. Arc Sync enables you to access ****your Spaces, Pinned Tabs and Today Tabs across devices. Syncing makes it possible to pull up your Pinned Tabs right in the search bar or from the icon in the Tab Switcher, and pin tabs to a Space on your desktop on the go, to peruse later.

  • Who made it happen: Maya and Julia

• **Live Calendars:** If Google Calendar is pinned in your Favorites, you’ll find a countdown timer and a “Join” button in your Sidebar — keeping you on time, and making your next call an easy click away.

  • Who made it happen: Connor and Ben
