On your Mac.

Links, images, PDFs, sorted by on-device AI.

Local. Private. Blazing fast.

Three moves. #

That’s the app.

Save

Links, images, whole PDFs. One click, or a drag. Each gets a clean reading view.

Find

Full-text search across everything you keep. Offline. In a blink.

Organize

On-device AI tags and summarizes every save. No account. No setup.

Private. Stays that way.

Your whole library lives in a local database on your Mac. No cloud, no account, no sync you didn’t ask for. Open any save in a blink, even on a plane.

Smart, without the cloud.

Apple Foundation Models tag and summarize every save, right on your machine. Want deeper image vision? Add a Gemini key and pay the provider at cost.

One library for all of it.

A link, a screenshot, a folder of PDFs. Read in a clean view, pull palettes from any image, highlight inside any document. All in one place.

Small details. #

Done right.

Apple Silicon native

Built for macOS 13 and up. Fast on M-series and Intel alike.

Color palettes

Every image gives up its palette. Copy any hex in a click.

Highlights

Highlight and annotate inline, in PDFs and articles alike.

Reading view

Just the text, clean and readable. No ads, no banners, no pop-ups.

No account, ever

No sign-up, no profile, no tracking. Just open the app.

Bring your own key

On-device features are free. Cloud vision is paid at cost.

One price. #

Yours forever.

One time payment. No subscription.

  • Unlimited links, images & PDFs
- On-device AI tags & summaries
- Instant full-text search
  • Color palettes & highlights
  • One-click import from your other apps
  • Free updates, forever

Questions, answered. #

No fine print.

Is it really one-time? #

Yes. Pay $99 once and the app is yours, with free updates. No subscription, ever.

Does my data leave my Mac? #

No. Your library lives in a local database, and the AI runs on-device. Nothing leaves unless you add a cloud key yourself.

What’s “bring your own key”? #

On-device features are free, out of the box. For cloud image vision, add your own Gemini key. You pay the provider directly, at cost.

Which macOS do I need? #

macOS 13 or later. It’s a native Mac app, fast on both Apple Silicon and Intel.

Can I import from Pocket or Raindrop? #

One click. Bring over Raindrop, Pocket, browser bookmarks, or a folder of PDFs. All local, no account.

What’s your refund policy? #

If it’s not for you, we’ll refund you. See the full terms on the refund page. Read the refund policy →
