Your bookmarks come back to you.
You save smart things and never see them again. Rebrief reads every bookmark — threads, articles, even the infographics — and delivers your weekly Rebrief: what each save is about, and the one takeaway worth remembering.
Computed entirely on your machine · no account · no cloud · you own the file
Free while in preview. One email a week — your own bookmarks, decoded. Unsubscribe anytime.
Real output — records from an actual briefing
A one-page cheat card benchmarking 12 RAG chunking strategies on long-document QA, with recall scores for each.
Section-aware chunking — the header embedded in every chunk — beat fixed-size windows on every long-doc benchmark.
A thread on how KV-cache, prefill-vs-decode, and context management actually drive LLM latency and cost.
Most "slow model" problems are decode-bound — batch and cache before you reach for a bigger GPU.
A teardown of a sub-$300 espresso grinder mod that adds PID temperature control for café-grade shots at home.
The single-dose mod matters more than the machine — grind consistency is 80% of the cup.
How it works
Harvest
A userscript collects your X bookmarks in your own browser — full history, no API, no login handover. Browser bookmarks work too; YouTube is next.
Decode
Every save gets read — linked articles fetched, threads followed, infographics actually read by vision — then summarized with its key takeaway and classified by why you saved it.
Return
A weekly briefing lands as one self-contained file you own — themed, searchable, filterable. Duplicates merged. New saves flagged. Works offline forever.
Organized by why you saved it
Things you saved to understand. Each arrives pre-digested with its lesson.
Projects and tools you meant to try. Surface them when you have a free weekend.
Docs and cheatsheets. Findable in one search when you finally need them.
Things you were deciding on. No more re-finding that grinder deal.
The long-reads pile — with summaries, so you know which are worth the time.
The sparks. Kept visible instead of buried 400 bookmarks deep.
Local-first, actually
No account. No cloud.
Harvesting runs in your browser. Enrichment runs on your machine with a local model (LM Studio / Ollama) — or your own Claude key if you want maximum quality. Either way, we never see your bookmarks.
You own the artifact
Each briefing is one self-contained HTML file. No server, no subscription needed to open it. Archive it, share it, grep it in ten years.
Analyse deeper when you want
Every record has an Analyse action that hands it to Claude for a deep dive — and an MCP server is coming so Claude Desktop can search your whole saved history.
Escape hatches everywhere
Plain JSON in, Markdown + HTML out. Send records to Notion, drop calendar reminders, or pipe the data anywhere. No lock-in by design.
