How it works

How it works

01
🔖

Save the article

Paste a URL in the web app, use the Firefox extension, or call the API. The article is extracted and stripped of ads and sidebars.

02
📖

Convert to EPUB

Articles are parsed with go-trafilatura and packaged as a well-formatted EPUB, safely stored in the cloud.

03
🧑‍💻

Read on the Browser

Read the article from your (mobile/desktop) browser without distractions.

04
✉️

Deliver to Kindle (optional)

Send the EPUB to your Kindle email address. It appears in your library like any other book.

Features

Everything a reader needs.
Nothing they don't.

📚

Kindle-native delivery

Send any saved article directly to your Kindle via email — formatted like a real book. No sideloading, no USB cables.

Open REST API

A clean HTTP API means you can integrate save-to-ink into any workflow — scripts, automation, or other apps. CORS ready.
