How It Works

Built for the engineer with 40 tabs open

Three small pieces, one job: make production impossible to confuse with anything else.

1. See It

Never mistake prod for staging again

High-visibility glowing borders surround the entire browser viewport on production tabs. The tab title is automatically prefixed with [PROD] so you distinguish tabs in your browser bar before you even click them.

2. Tag It

Tag any tab in one click

No complex configuration files or regex mastery required. Click the shield in your toolbar and mark any site as Production, Staging, Dev / Local, or Sandbox in real time without refreshing the page.

3. Stop It

Stop destructive clicks before they land

On production tabs, dangerous buttons (Delete, Drop, Purge, Terminate, Destroy) are armed with click interceptors. Clicks are held in the capture phase, requiring deliberate keyboard confirmation: type PROD to disarm.

For Teams

Granular control across every cloud service

Adapt Wait, That’s Prod! to your organization's custom environments and wildcard routing.

Your environments, your colors

Create custom environments like QA, UAT, or Sandbox. Perceptual clash detection warns you if a staging color looks identical to production, while side-by-side previews ensure contrast on both dark and light consoles.

Frequently asked questions

Which browsers does Wait, That’s Prod! support?

Chrome and other Chromium-based browsers, including Edge and Brave. Install it from the Chrome Web Store.

Does Wait, That’s Prod! work on Single-Page Apps (React, Next.js, Vue)?
