Side by side
A bookmark manager that saves links, articles, images and videos into collections with tags, previews and full-text search on the paid plan.
A browser extension for Chrome, Firefox and others that saves a complete web page, including images and styles, into a single HTML file, with a CLI version too.
Run by a very small team, and permanent copies and full-text search need Pro.
Pages with heavy dynamic content can save imperfectly, and the AGPL applies if you build on the code.
