Hoarder, now Karakeep, is an open-source self-hostable bookmark manager with AI auto-tagging, full-text search, and a $4/month cloud plan.
Hoarder is an open-source application for saving and organizing bookmarks, notes, images, and PDFs from anywhere on the web. Built by Localhost Labs Ltd, the project rebranded to Karakeep in 2025, though the underlying open-source codebase and self-hosting model remain unchanged. It is designed for people who save far more links than they ever revisit, using AI to automatically tag and surface content later.
The project is fully open source, with the code published on GitHub where it has attracted more than 26,000 stars and over 150 contributors. Users can run it themselves on a personal server using Docker for complete control over their data, or use the official hosted cloud version for a simpler setup.
Hoarder combines AI-powered organization with cross-platform access. Every saved link, image, or note is automatically fetched, tagged, and indexed for full-text search, and the same content stays in sync across the web app, browser extensions, and mobile apps.
Beyond basic saving, the tool supports collaborative shared lists, RSS feed automation for ongoing content curation, custom automation rules, and text highlighting directly on saved pages. A REST API and webhook support let developers build on top of their saved data.
Hoarder can be self-hosted for free using Docker, with no limits on bookmarks or storage and community support through the open-source project. For users who don't want to manage their own server, the official Karakeep Cloud offers a free tier limited to 10 bookmarks and 20MB of storage, and a Pro tier at $4/month with 50,000 bookmarks and 50GB of storage.
A Corporate plan is available for teams and organizations at custom per-seat pricing, adding custom deployment, custom domains, single sign-on, and user management on top of the Pro feature set.
