Sombra: Capture knowledge, not just links.
Turn any webpage into permanent, local & AI-accessible knowledge with one click.
Sombra saves primary web content as you see it. Every page becomes clean markdown with preserved visuals, stored permanently and ready for AI tools via enterprise-grade secure remote MCP.
Go beyond bookmarks.
What Makes Sombra Different
Real Browser Capture: Unlike tools that fetch pages remotely, Sombra captures content directly from your browser—including authenticated pages, SPAs, and dynamic content that other tools miss. We don't use passwords or authentication - just content. If you can see it, you're good to go.
- AI-Native Design: Your collections can integrate seamlessly with AI assistants through an enterprise grade, authenticated and secure MCP (Model Context Protocol) connection, turning saved content into queryable knowledge.
- True Ownership: All content syncs to your Dropbox as portable markdown files. No vendor lock-in, no data hostage situations.
- Optional Visible Tab Screenshots - capture the look of the page as it is at that time and refer to it in the future, even if the site changes.
- Permanent Archives: Content is stored privately and securely—your knowledge stays accessible even when original sites disappear.
- We're not a social network - all your content is private and secure.

Your content belongs to you. Sombra processes pages only when you save them, stores everything privately, and syncs to your own Dropbox account. Your content, your control.
