Most bookmark managers help you save things. Recall helps you actually use them.

What is Recall?

Recall is a bookmark manager that doesn't let things disappear. Save any URL and Gemini tags it automatically. Then Recall works in the background. A daily digest resurfaces things you forgot you saved. The Surprise me button pulls up a random save on demand. You don't have to remember to look. Recall remembers for you.

Search is there too. Find anything across titles, descriptions, and tags without remembering the exact URL.

Getting Started

Use the web app

Visit recallsave.vercel.app - no setup required. Sign up with Google, GitHub, or email and start saving immediately.

Run it locally

Prerequisites

• Node.js 20+
• A Supabase project (free tier works)
• A Gemini API key (free)
• An Upstash Redis database (free tier works)

Setup

git clone https://github.com/MinitJain/recall.git
cd recall/client
npm install

Create client/.env.local:

DATABASE_URL=your_supabase_postgres_connection_string
DIRECT_URL=your_supabase_direct_connection_string
NEXT_PUBLIC_SUPABASE_URL=your_supabase_project_url
NEXT_PUBLIC_SUPABASE_ANON_KEY=your_supabase_anon_key
GEMINI_API_KEY=your_gemini_api_key
UPSTASH_REDIS_REST_URL=your_upstash_redis_url
UPSTASH_REDIS_REST_TOKEN=your_upstash_redis_token

npx prisma generate
npx prisma db push
npm run dev

App runs at http://localhost:3000.

All npm and npx prisma commands must be run from the client/ directory.

Chrome Extension

From the Chrome Web Store

Coming soon. The extension is not yet listed on the Chrome Web Store. Download the latest release from the link at the top of this page, then follow the manual install instructions below.

Manual Install (Load Unpacked)

Manual install instructions

No ZIP download needed. Just clone the repo and point Chrome at the extension/ folder.

Step 1 - Clone the repo

git clone https://github.com/MinitJain/recall.git

Keep this folder somewhere permanent on your computer. Chrome needs it to stay there.

Step 2 - Open Chrome Extensions

In Chrome, navigate to chrome://extensions or go to Menu (⋮) > More tools > Extensions.

Step 3 - Enable Developer Mode

Toggle Developer mode on in the top-right corner of the Extensions page.

Step 4 - Load the extension

Click Load unpacked in the top-left corner.

Step 5 - Select the extension folder

In the file picker, navigate into the cloned repo and select the extension/ folder. Select the folder itself, not a file inside it.

Step 6 - Done

Recall will appear in your extensions list with the bookmark icon. Click the puzzle piece in the Chrome toolbar and pin Recall to keep it visible.

Keyboard shortcut

Shortcut	Action
Alt+Shift+S (Windows / Linux)	Save the current tab instantly, no popup needed
Option+Shift+S (Mac)	Save the current tab instantly, no popup needed

Remap it at chrome://extensions/shortcuts.

How It Works

You find something worth saving
        ↓
Click the Recall extension icon (or press Alt+Shift+S)
        ↓
Recall sends the URL to the API at recallsave.vercel.app
        ↓
The server scrapes the page and fetches title, description, thumbnail
        ↓
Google Gemini reads the content and generates 3–5 tags
        ↓
Everything is saved to your account in the database
        ↓
Open recallsave.vercel.app/app and your bookmark is there,
tagged, previewed, and searchable

The search side

When you search, Recall looks across titles, descriptions, and tags simultaneously. You don't need to remember the exact title. Searching "focus music productivity" will surface bookmarks tagged with any of those concepts.

Contributing

PRs are welcome. Before starting anything major, open an issue first so we can align on the approach.

1. Fork the repo and create a feature branch off main
2. Make your changes. All source code lives in client/
3. Run npx tsc --noEmit to check for type errors
4. Open a PR. CodeRabbit will review it automatically
5. CI runs lint, typecheck, and build on every push

Please don't open PRs that add unrelated dependencies, change the deployment config, or touch prisma/schema.prisma without discussing it first.
