Karakeep
A bookmark manager that keeps things: links, notes and images with a full copy of every page.

What Karakeep does
Karakeep collects links, notes and images in one place, keeps a full copy and a screenshot of every page and searches everything in full text. Saved pages stay readable even when the original disappears.
Browser extension and mobile apps send finds in with one tap; lists and tags keep the collection sorted.
Full copy of every saved page- Full-text search across links, notes and images
- Browser extension and apps for iOS and Android
- Lists, tags and an archive
Good to know before the first start. Karakeep runs its own browser inside the pod to capture pages. Hence the larger defaults — with less memory, archiving bigger pages fails.

No. No server, no Docker, no terminal commands. You click start and Karakeep runs. Updates are tested on our own instances first and then rolled out.
In your own Karakeep instance on servers in Germany and France; bulk storage sits in Frankfurt. Add your own S3 bucket and we back up there daily, encrypted.
Karakeep is open source and keeps running on your own server. You fetch the files over a time-limited SFTP access and reach the database with the credentials from the dashboard.
