Import. Bookmark anything on X that passes your interest filter — it's in Backread the instant you tap. No filing, no friction.
Save anything. YouTube videos, articles, any link — share it to Backread from anywhere and it joins the same library: sorted into your niches, summarised, searchable.
Intelligence. Every save auto-sorted into your own niches, summarised, and searchable — your knowledge and interest graphs, mapped and reflected back at you.
Live ticker. New and updating posts streaming from the accounts and topics that define your feed — your niches, always fresh.
Vault. Lock any post or thread forever, with cryptographic proof — yours even if the original ever disappears.
A fresh start. Backread files every bookmark forever — then clears your bookmarks list on X in one tap, with a full day to undo. The pile becomes a library.
Take action. Turn the saves that matter into a next step and a ready-to-use draft — handed straight to Claude, ChatGPT, or Grok.

The app

Your whole X archive, alive.

Every bookmark you've ever made — filed into your own niches, summarised, searchable, and streaming. This is the same app, live: the demo below every screenshot is playable.

The Backread wall — every save organised into your niches

Every morning

Open to what matters.

The Brief triages your saves while you sleep: what's new, what moved, what deserves action first. First open of the day lands here — the rest of the day, your library.

The Daily Brief

Reading, upgraded

Every save arrives already understood.

Summaries, tags, full threads, quote context, playable media — and semantic search that finds the post you half-remember from months ago.

Reading view with summaries and context

Live

The freshest posts from your people.

Following streams new and updating posts from the accounts and topics that define your feed — per-niche tickers, always moving, algorithm-free calm.

Following — live per-niche tickers

Agent Bunny

Ask. Find. Organise.
In plain English.

The bunny knows what screen you're on and proposes the highest-value next move — with your real numbers. "Sort my 14 Miscellaneous saves." "What connects my 7 starred posts?" It shows the plan before it moves a thing.

Backread Agent — context-aware suggestions

Kept forever

The Vault: proof, not promises.

Lock any post or thread forever — full text, media, Community Notes — cryptographically signed and Bitcoin-anchored. Yours even if the original ever disappears. And the whole archive is continuously replicated off-site.

The Vault — verified snapshots kept forever

Know thyself

Your taste, measured.

Insights maps what you actually care about: your niches over time, the voices you trust, the gems you saved and forgot — resurfaced before they rot.

Insights — your saved universe, measured

Share the signal

Collections worth passing on.

Make any category public — a real page anyone can read, follow, or clone into their own Backread in one tap. Curation becomes a calling card.

Shared categories — public collections

The Observatory

Your saved universe, mapped by meaning.

Every save embedded and clustered into a living constellation — fly through what you know.

The Constellation — your archive mapped in meaning-space

Everywhere

Native on iPhone, iPad and Mac.

Share to Backread from any app. Save any link — YouTube, articles, anything — into the same intelligent library. Light and dark, equally at home. Your archive exports cleanly too: Markdown, CSV, JSON, or a complete Obsidian vault.
