📌 Bookmarks, Reimagined for Teams and Preservation

Linkwarden isn't just a bookmark manager—it archives, annotates, and collaborates on web content, all while staying self-hosted.

Linkwarden is a self-hosted, open-source collaborative bookmark manager designed to collect, read, annotate, and preserve web content in one place. Built to combat link rot, it automatically captures screenshots, PDFs, and HTML copies of saved pages. With a read-it-later reader view, tagging, and shared collections, it blends personal knowledge management with team collaboration. Developed by the Linkwarden team, it supports browser extensions, mobile apps, and API access for flexible workflows.

✨ Highlights

• Auto Webpage Capture: Screenshots, PDFs, and single HTML files saved automatically for each link.
• Reader View with Annotations: Clean reading interface with text highlighting and note-taking.
• Wayback Machine Integration: Optional archiving to archive.org for long-term backup.
• Local AI Tagging: Automatically tags links based on content using local AI models.
• Collaborative Collections: Share links publicly or collaborate with multiple users on collections.
• Custom Permissions: Set granular access controls for each member in shared collections.
• Mobile Apps & Extensions: Native iOS and Android apps plus browser extensions for seamless saving.
• Full-Text Search & Filters: Quickly find links using search, tags, and sorting options.

💡 Why it matters

Unlike traditional bookmark managers that store only URLs, Linkwarden actively preserves content. This addresses the growing issue of link rot, ensuring saved articles remain accessible even if the source disappears. Its self-hosted nature gives users full control over data privacy and customization.

Ideal for researchers, teams, and individuals who rely on web content for work or learning, Linkwarden combines archival strength with usability. The mix of local AI tagging, annotation tools, and collaborative features makes it a powerful alternative to fragmented read-it-later or note-taking apps.
