About Karakeep
Karakeep is an open source bookmark manager for links, notes and images. It saves what you find and uses AI to tag and summarize it, so you can search for things by meaning as well as by words.
What it does
You can save links, notes, images and PDFs from any device. Karakeep fetches the title, description and image of each link and can keep a full-page archive to protect against link rot. AI adds tags and summaries as you save, and rules can tag or move items automatically. Saved articles open in a clean reader view, where you can highlight passages.
Key features

Who it's for
Researchers, readers and anyone who collects articles, recipes or references and wants to find them later. It suits people who like to keep their saved links on a server they control.
Pricing and good to know
Karakeep is open source under the AGPL-3.0 license and can be self-hosted. A hosted cloud version is also offered. AI tagging needs a model provider, which can be self-hosted or a paid cloud service, so check the costs for that part before you rely on it.
