How it works

Search anything

Open the side panel with Ctrl+Shift+F and type what you remember.

Find it instantly

Features

Full-Text Search

Search by any word or phrase from the page content — not just titles and URLs.

100% Local

No servers, no cloud, no accounts. Your data never leaves your browser.

Smart Filters

Filter by date range and domain. Find "that Stack Overflow answer from last week" easily.

Sensitive Page Protection

Banking, medical, and password pages are automatically skipped. Add your own blocklist.

Dark Mode

Built-in dark mode toggle. Easy on the eyes during late-night research sessions.

Export & Backup

Export all your data as JSON anytime. Import it back on a new machine.

Keyboard First

Ctrl+Shift+F to open, arrow keys to navigate, Enter to open. No mouse needed.

Japanese Support

Hiragana/Katakana cross-matching. Search in either form, find both.
