Read-later, no frills

Read-later without the platform.

Most read-later apps are social feeds now — tabs, algorithmic queues, retention loops. Readden is a save queue and a clean reader. Nothing else.

Switching from Pocket?

When Mozilla shut Pocket down, they gave you a JSON export. Upload it to Readden: titles, URLs, tags, and archive status all transfer. No re-saving articles one by one.

What it does

One thing, done without distractions.

One click. Saved.

The browser extension saves any page immediately — no redirect, no confirmation screen. On mobile, use the share sheet from any browser or app.

Read the article. Not the page.

Reader view strips ads, sidebars, and subscribe popups. Just the text, in light or dark, at whatever font size you want. No controls you didn't ask for.

A queue, not a platform.

Articles go into Unread. Mark favorites. Archive what you've finished. Add tags if you want them. No algorithm decides the order. No notifications.

Export any time. No lock-in.

Your full library exports as JSON or CSV from account settings. If we ever close, you get 90 days' notice and exports stay up. Your saves are yours.

Honest pricing.

Free is the real offer — not a trial, not a degraded tier. Pro is coming; join the waitlist if you want it early.

Frequently asked questions

Why not just browser bookmarks?

Browser bookmarks don't have a reader view, don't sync cleanly across browsers, and don't preserve the article text if the original URL goes down. Readden stores article content so you can read it even if the page 404s later. It also gives you a single queue across all your devices and browsers.

Who owns my data? Can I get it out?

You do. Export your full library as JSON or CSV from account settings any time — no support ticket required. We store article text on our servers so you can read it; we don't sell it or use it to train models. The privacy policy has the full list of what we collect.

Is Readden open-source?

Not currently. We haven't ruled it out, but we're a small indie product and haven't committed to it. The practical answer for data ownership: the export works, so you're not dependent on the source being open to get your content out.

Can I self-host it?

Not today — it's a hosted service. Self-hosting isn't on the near-term roadmap. A small team supporting self-hosted installs isn't something we can do responsibly right now.

What's actually live in Pro right now?

Pro is opening soon. AI auto-tagging, semantic search, and a daily reading digest are built and ship with it. The free tier already covers everything most people need day to day. Join the waitlist to be first when Pro opens.

Do you track my reading?

We use PostHog for product analytics — page views and feature interactions. We don't read what articles you save or what content is in them. Readden runs from Switzerland, follows Swiss and EU privacy law, and has no ad business to feed data to. Full details in the privacy policy.

Your reading queue. No platform required.

No credit card, no trial period, no expiry. Save your first article in under a minute.
