Best for saving and searching bookmarks from X and other networks
Dewey saves and organizes bookmarks from X, LinkedIn, Bluesky and other networks. The free plan syncs by hand, connects one account and has basic search. Folders, tags, the AI assistant, export and the integrations are paid, from $7.50 a month on yearly billing, and it names only a Chrome extension.
Who Dewey is for
- Fits if you save posts from X or LinkedIn and want to find them again
- Makes sense if you will pay for automatic syncing
Who Dewey is not for
- Tight if you stay on the free plan: manual sync and one connected account
- Pricey if you want folders, tags or export, which need Pro at $7.50 a month
- Watch out: export is also sold as a $50 pass valid for 48 hours
- Watch out: other browsers than Chrome are not listed on the pages read
Why Dewey gets a 2.0
Five grades, each with its reason. The GPA is their average: an A is 4 points, an F is none.
- DValue for money$7.50 a month on yearly billing, $10 monthly, is above the reading category's $7 dearer quarter, and the folders, tags and export that matter sit on it. Lifetime is $225, and a 48-hour export pass is $50.
- CFree plan and trialA free plan with manual syncing, basic search and one connected account. Export, folders, tags and the AI assistant are not on it.
- CFeaturesMany networks, search, folders, tags, an AI assistant and export, with Notion and Google Sheets integrations. The free plan has a gap in the core work, since folders and tags are paid.
- CEase of useNo store rating on record. You connect each network account and set up syncing.
- BPlatforms and integrationsBrowser extension and web, with Notion and Google Sheets integrations. The pages name only a Chrome extension and no phone apps.

Keep Dewey, or make your own?
You could make this
A read-later list at its plainest is saved links with tags.
What Dewey does at its core is bookmarks and web clipper, and that is the kind of thing an AI app builder makes well. You would give up one thing, listed below, and little else. It costs $90 a year. An AI app builder starts at about $20 a month on our listings, and you only need it while you build.
What you could make
- Bookmarks and web clipper: an app builder makes these well.
- It runs in a browser, which is where something home-made would run too.
What you could not
- AI features, unless you pay a model provider for each request yourself.
What this rests on. Dewey’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.
