Linkit is a desktop-first, open-source bookmark and knowledge curation app that converts saved links into searchable knowledge assets. It provides AI-generated summaries and tags, semantic vector search, a visual knowledge graph, multi-level categories and dynamic collections, duplicate detection, link health checks, and an insights report to surface reading habits. Items are represented as rich cards with notes, ratings, pinning and reading status; one-click imports from browser exports and services like Raindrop speed migration. The interface offers multiple view modes, a Spotlight quick-capture bar, twelve themes, and offline-first local storage using SQLite so users can run without an account or telemetry.

Advanced features rely on user-provided LLM access: any OpenAI-compatible cloud API or local model (Ollama, LocalAI, etc.) can enable auto-fetching, summarization, semantic search, and AI-curated collections, but Linkit does not ship with built-in API keys. Cross-device sync is offered free via Supabase with row-level security, revision tracking, conflict resolution and encrypted API keys stored in the OS keychain. Built with Go/Wails on the desktop and React/Vite/TypeScript for the UI, it’s available for macOS, Windows and Linux (Homebrew, DMG, AppImage/DEB) and explicitly positioned as 100% free with no paywalls and full data sovereignty.
