The Pinport guide

Browse by topic

Your library, already sorted. No folders to keep.

Above your bookmarks, Pinport shows a handful of topics it found in your library, each named after what is inside. You never create or tidy them. They are there the moment you open your library.

Choose Design tools, then one of the finer topics that appear. Remove a picked topic with its × to step back.

Narrow it step by step

Pick a topic to show only its bookmarks. Pinport then splits what is left into finer topics, so you can keep narrowing until the list is short enough to scan. Each topic you pick stays as a chip at the start of the row. Remove one with its × to step back, or choose Clear to start over. Escape removes the last one.

With search and tags

Search first, and the topics come from your results: search for “video” and pick the topic that holds the tools rather than the tutorials. Tags work the same way. The order matters:

  • A topic picked after a search or tag splits only those bookmarks.
  • A search or tag added after a topic narrows within it. The search looks only at that topic’s bookmarks.
  • Remove a search or tag that a topic was formed from, and that topic goes as well, since it was never a topic of the larger list.

Every step is part of the link in your address bar, so you can reload the page, go back, or bookmark a view you return to.

Where topics come from

Pinport looks at what each bookmark is about, from its title, your note, and the text of the saved page where one could be fetched, and groups the ones that belong together. An AI model then names each group from a few of its titles and tags. A link with a vague title still ends up next to its kind, because the grouping goes by what the page says.

  • Topics appear once a list has at least 12 bookmarks; shorter lists are quick to scan.
  • Bookmarks saved or imported moments ago join a topic once background processing has reached them, usually within minutes.
  • Topics follow your library. As you save and delete, they regroup to match, and their names can change with them.
  • Naming has a monthly allowance per plan. If it is used up, topics are named after their most common tag or title until the next month.
Topics or tags?

Topics cover what a page is about, and they cost you nothing. Tags are for what only you know: a project, a trip, something to read later. Use both. Organize with tags →

Where you can use topics

Topics are in the web app and the browser extension. Developers can request them through the API.
