# Stashio
Save everything. Find by meaning.
Semantic search · share sheet · Spaces
iOS Android Chrome Live
Stashio exists because my Apple Notes had 2,400 links in it and I could never find one. Share something in; it reads it and files it. When you need it back, you search by what you remember, not by the exact words.

**Save anything. Find everything.**The library, grouped by day. Each save shows what it is and the one number you care about: read time, ingredient count, price.
**Clean reading, zero clutter**Summary and key points on top, the full article underneath.
**Snap it. We read it.**Take a photo of a café. You get address, hours, phone, price range.
**Organized for you**Spaces sort themselves. Travel 24 saves, Design 31, Coffee Spots 9.
**Ask your whole library**Ask a question; the answer lists the saves it came from underneath.
**Your full second brain**$1.99 a month, $9.99 a year with a 7-day trial, $29.99 lifetime.
## What people use it for
### Everyday
### Vouchers
It reads the expiry date when you save one and reminds you before it lapses.
### Restaurants
A friend sends a place. Two months later you actually go, and the address and hours are already there.
### Recipes
Recipes show their ingredient count right in the list.
### Watch later
Reels disappear. Saved ones don't.
### Things you might buy
Wishlist keeps the item and its price until you decide.
### Trips
Everything for one trip lands in one Space. The night before, ask it for the itinerary.
### Work
### API docs
atuan keeps documentation snippets in it. The kind of thing you need twice a year.
### Long articles
The summary tells you whether the piece deserves twenty minutes.
### QA logs
ktuyen puts test screenshots and regression logs into Spaces before each release.
### Ideas
Mic button in the Library. Premium transcribes the recording.
### Memory
### 2,400 links
That was my Apple Notes before Stashio. Three months in, 94% of my lookups take under ten seconds.
### Forgotten keywords
“That thing about hydrostatic pressure in parking garages” finds the draft. The word hydrostatic was never in a tag.
### Receipts
Photograph them. The text inside is searchable.
### Old saves
Rediscover brings older saves back up now and then.
## How to save your first thing
### iPhone / iPad
1. Open the thing: a Safari page, a photo, a PDF.
2. Tap Share.
3. Pick Stashio. First time it hides at the end of the app row: tap More and switch it on.
4. That's it. It sorts itself out.
### Android
1. Open the thing.
2. Share → Stashio.
3. Big PDFs finish importing in the background.
4. Voice notes: the mic button at the top of the Library.
### Chrome on your computer
1. Install the extension from the Chrome Web Store.
2. Pair once: on the phone, Settings → Linked devices → Scan QR, aim at the code in the popup. No email, no password.
3. Or skip the camera and type the four-emoji code.
4. From then on the toolbar icon saves the current page. One click.
5. Highlight text, right-click, Save to Stashio. Links and images too.
6. Unlink is in the popup if you want out.
**One click saves the page**
**Right-click for highlights, links, images**
**Pair with your phone by QR, no account**
## Ways in
- **Share sheet**Share Extension on iOS, Share Target on Android. Links, posts, products, recipes, places: same door.
- **Chrome extension**One click for the page, right-click for a highlight.
- **Camera**Shopfronts, posters, menus, receipts. You get fields, not a caption.
- **Photos and screenshots**OCR. The text inside images is searchable.
- **Voice notes**Record in the app or share a file in. Premium transcribes.
- **Files and PDFs**Text extracted on the device. On Android a foreground service keeps big imports alive.
- **Selected text**Share just the paragraph.
- **Nothing to fill in**It never asks for tags or a folder. Share and go.
## What the AI does with a save
- **Reading view**The article rebuilt clean. Source and read time kept.
- **Summary**A few sentences plus key points.
- **Tags**Generated from the content.
- **Type detection**Article, recipe, product, place, video.
- **The right number**Read time for articles, ingredients for recipes, price for products, open-now for places.
- **Fields from photos**Address, hours, phone, price, expiry dates.
- **Status**A pill shows when each item is Ready.
## Keeping it in order
- **Smart Spaces**Collections that build themselves: Travel, Recipes, Design, Coffee Spots, Reading List, Wishlist. Each shows its count.
- **Manual Spaces**The + button is there when a project needs its own shelf.
- **One item, several Spaces**No duplicate files underneath.
- **Today first**The Library opens on today's saves.
- **Filters**All, Articles, Recipes, Places, Videos.
- **Stars and sharing**Favourite things; share any save back out.
## Getting it back
- **Search by meaning**The box says “Search your mind”. You type what you remember; it matches what you meant.
- **Search by keyword**Titles, tags, extracted text. Including text read out of images.
- **Rediscover**Old saves resurface on their own. Vouchers get a nudge before they expire.
- **Related items**Each item page suggests the saves near it.
- **Ask**Chat over the library. Answers cite the saves they used, so you can check.
- **Offline**The index lives on the device. No connection, still searchable.
## Privacy
- **No account**Saving and searching work without signing in to anything.
- **Local first**The cache is always readable offline. Cloud is optional.
- **Sync is encrypted**With sync on, the server stores encrypted blobs for the index, not readable content.
- **No ad ID, no tracking**On every tier, both platforms.
- **The extension's disclosure**One data type: website content. Not sold, not reused for anything else.
## Under the hood
On iOS the share extension runs in a lightweight process, drops the item into an app group container, and signals the main app to index it on next open. On Android it registers as a Share Target; big PDFs import under a foreground service so the system cannot kill the write halfway, and the metadata lands in a Room database.
Semantic search works because embedding vectors are computed on the phone and indexed locally. Keywords cover titles, tags and extracted text; embeddings cover the day you remember the concept but not the vocabulary. The index is built on-device first and stays searchable offline, account or no account.
Stashio is the one app in this studio that touches the cloud. Bookmarking does not need ten-millisecond latency, and what people actually pay for in a save-later tool is save on the phone, find on the laptop. So here the cloud is allowed in, under the same privacy rules as everything else we ship.
## Free and premium
Saving, reading, search: free, no account. Premium is the AI side: unlimited extraction, Ask, sync across devices, transcription, full Spaces and Rediscover. $1.99 a month, $9.99 a year with a 7-day trial, $29.99 lifetime.
The extension is just another way in. Everything lands in the same library on your phone.
