Self-hosted bookmark manager with AI tagging and full-text search
Karakeep is a self-hostable app for bookmarking links, notes, images, and PDFs with AI-powered tagging, full-text search, and automatic content archival.
Karakeep (formerly Hoarder) is a comprehensive bookmark management platform designed for self-hosting enthusiasts who want complete control over their saved content. Whether you're archiving articles from Reddit, storing research papers, or capturing quick notes, Karakeep handles links, images, PDFs, and text with equal ease.
Built with modern web technologies including NextJS and tRPC, Karakeep automatically fetches metadata for links and leverages AI (ChatGPT or local Ollama models) to tag and summarize content. Full-text search powered by Meilisearch ensures you can find anything instantly. The platform includes OCR for extracting text from images, full-page archival to combat link rot, and video downloading via yt-dlp.
Access your bookmarks everywhere with browser extensions for Chrome and Firefox, native iOS and Android apps, and a REST API for custom integrations. Import existing bookmarks from Pocket, Chrome, Omnivore, and other services. Features like RSS auto-hoarding, rule-based automation, SSO support, and multi-language interfaces make Karakeep a production-ready solution for individuals and teams who refuse to compromise on data ownership.
When teams consider Karakeep, these hosted platforms usually appear on the same shortlist.
Looking for a hosted option? These are the services engineering teams benchmark against before choosing open source.
Research Content Aggregation
Automatically tag and summarize academic papers, articles, and PDFs with AI while maintaining full-text searchability across your entire research library.
Social Media Discovery Archive
Save interesting finds from Reddit, Twitter, and Hacker News with automatic metadata fetching and organize them into topic-based lists for later review.
Team Knowledge Base
Build a shared repository of industry resources with SSO authentication, collaborative lists, and rule-based automation for consistent organization.
Content Preservation
Archive full web pages and videos automatically to protect against link rot and content deletion, ensuring permanent access to valuable resources.
Yes, AI-based tagging and summarization are optional. You can use Karakeep as a traditional bookmark manager with manual organization, full-text search, and automatic metadata fetching.
Karakeep supports OpenAI's ChatGPT API and local models via Ollama, giving you the choice between cloud-based convenience and self-hosted privacy.
Karakeep includes importers for Chrome bookmarks, Pocket, Linkwarden, Omnivore, and Tab Session Manager. You can also sync continuously with browser bookmarks using floccus.
You'll need a server capable of running Docker containers or Node.js applications, plus Meilisearch for search functionality and a database. Optional components include Ollama for local AI.
Karakeep is under active development but includes production features like SSO, multi-language support, and mobile apps. Review the documentation and test thoroughly before deploying for critical workflows.
