A COLLECTION, NOT A FEED
Every save-it-for-later app eventually becomes a destination: a feed to scroll, an algorithm to please, ads dressed up as inspiration. Magpie opens when you see something worth keeping and disappears when you're done. No feed, no algorithm, no ads, no account needed.
CATCH
• Right-click any image, selected text, or page → "Catch in Magpie" • Screenshot-clip a region of the page (Cmd/Ctrl+Shift+S) • Pick several images off a page in one pass • Paste or drag files straight into the panel • Catch whole posts on X and Instagram — author, caption, date, source link and media in one clip
FIND
Boards with cover images and their own color palettes, tags, notes, and search. Every image's palette is read on your machine with plain color math — no AI — so you can search "dark green" or a hex code, sort any board into a rainbow, and ask for "more like this" from your own collection. Turn on the optional AI helper and Magpie also titles your captures, reads the text inside screenshots (find that receipt weeks later), suggests tags, and matches searches by meaning. Off by default: bring your own OpenRouter key, or let a paid plan run it with zero setup.
PRIVATE, VERIFIABLY
Your boards live in your browser's local storage — and, if you flip one switch, as plain files on your disk: one folder per board, images as ordinary image files, snippets as markdown. Uninstall Magpie and the files are still there. Export everything as a zip any time; import restores it anywhere; any board can become a single self-contained moodboard page. No analytics or telemetry in the extension. It installs with no host permissions; optional, revocable grants add original-file fetching and more reliable post capture. Every network claim is checkable in DevTools.
