What happens when I install through a start page?

NX1 installs as a browser extension and opens your very first new tab directly in the chosen start page — fully set up. Everything can be customized or removed afterwards.

Can I create my own start pages for other topics?

Yes. NX1 creates any start page with AI — type a name such as “FC Bayern” or “Formula 1” and the AI researches links, news sources and a design. Or build one manually.
