Kurator · Structured memory for your AI
Turn browsing into a structured knowledge base your AI tools can actually use.
AI memory is only as good as what goes into it. Kurator structures every source the moment you save it — described by your prompt, tagged, attributed — so Claude, ChatGPT, NotebookLM, your website and your RAG stack all draw from the same clean record instead of raw pages.

Evaluating AI-assisted data extraction in ecological evidence synthesis
Tags — you set these Description — written on savePrompt: Methodology, sample, limitationsMethod. Assessed AI-assisted extraction of 2,079 values across 189 peer-reviewed studies.
Result. 87.8% overall accuracy; under 3% error on categorical descriptors, but 20–30% of quantitative values required correction.
Limitation. Human validation remains necessary for quantitative synthesis.
What people say
Curators who stopped losing their research.
Reviews from Kurator and Content Hub users.
You can spend an hour researching and come away with excellent sources — and then watch all of it vanish.
A closed tab.
A bookmark folder you will never reopen.
A chat history you would have to re-read to mine.
The problem was never finding information. It’s that nothing turns it into memory your AI can reuse — so every new chat starts from raw pages again.
Slop in → slop out
Your AI’s output is only as good as its input.
Hand an AI a raw page and it has to filter ads, filler and transcription errors at the same moment it answers you. That is where generic, confident-sounding slop comes from. We gave Gemini Notebook the same sources twice: once uploaded raw, once structured in Kurator.
Asked about AI marketing agents across a year of AI Marketers Guild sessions, the raw notebook named four tools. The structured notebook named ten real platforms and implementations, grouped by discipline.
From one GEO presentation, raw upload produced an executive summary. Structured input surfaced the actual robots.txt fixes, firewall workarounds and a critique of llms.txt — the parts you would act on.
A 4,200-word raw transcript became about 2,100 words with speaker labels and timestamps. “Orie” became Augie, and “J gbt” became ChatGPT — errors a raw notebook would have cited back to you.
The honest trade-off: structuring compresses, and the raw transcript still wins when you need exact quotes. Every Kurator record keeps its source link, so the original is always one click away.
Capture → Structure → Reuse
Three steps, and only one of them is yours to do.
Kurator is a browser extension. You judge what’s worth keeping. It does everything that has to happen next for that judgment to become memory your AI can still use in six months.
Anything you can open, you can keep.
Click Kurator on any page and save it as a structured post, not a naked link. Selective by design: memory tools that capture everything spend their life cleaning up duplicates and contradictions. Your library starts high-signal because you chose what got in.
- Articles, blog posts, docs, and PDFs — the whole page, not a title and a URL.
- YouTube videos — with full transcripts and timestamps pulled in automatically.
- AI conversations and research sessions — the output survives the thread.
- Whole projects — organized into folders and nested collections from the start.
Every source lands in the same shape.
When you save, Kurator runs your prompt against the content and writes the description — not a generic summary, the exact output shape you defined. Twenty sources come back in one format instead of twenty, which is what makes them usable as memory.
- A prompt library, not a template file — write a prompt in AI Settings, name it, and pick which one runs on each save. Edit it once and every future save uses the new version.
- Provenance on every record — author, publisher, date and thesis travel with the content, so a vendor’s benchmark never passes as independent fact.
- Self-contained sections — long content is split by topic, so retrieval pulls the paragraph you need instead of the whole post.
- Clean long transcripts automatically: strip filler, fix names, section it, extract the recommendations.
You direct. AI does the structuring. Every item lands described, tagged, attributed and searchable — filterable by headline, description, author, publisher, or tag.
One record. Every destination.
Built-in AI memory stays locked inside one assistant. Your Kurator library doesn’t. Curate once, and every tool you use reads the same structured record.
Connect either assistant, or both. Each can search, read and write to your folders, run your prompts and file new findings. Ask both the same question of the same folder and see where their answers differ.
Filter a folder by tag, author or publisher, export just those records as a file, and upload it to whichever model you’re analyzing with.
Sync selected folders as sources. Edit and re-curate in Kurator and your notebook stays current — you keep editorial control over what goes in.
Feed clean, pre-chunked records to tools like heycatch or your own retrieval pipeline. Better chunks in, fewer hallucinations out.
Turn any set of folders into the knowledge base for an assistant that answers only from what you trusted enough to save — for you, or for your site’s visitors.
Publish a collection to WordPress with KBucket or into a site you built with Lovable-style tools. Each post gets its own server-rendered page, transcript and all — visible to search engines and AI answer engines.
Kurator and Obsidian
Obsidian is where you think. Kurator is where your research goes to work.
Both can clip a page and run a prompt on it as you save. The difference is everything after that: how easily you manage your prompts, find what you saved, and send the same content to every AI tool and site you use.
Use both. Keep your own thinking in Obsidian. Keep your sources in Kurator, where one curated folder can feed Claude, ChatGPT, NotebookLM, your website and your RAG assistant at once.
Why capture happens in your browser
Your browser gets in. Scrapers don’t.
Every other tool that ingests a URL sends a server to fetch it — and servers get turned away. Kurator reads the page you already have open, logged in, rendered, exactly as you see it. The sources other tools can’t reach are the ones you get to keep.
Who this is for
Built for the people who already know curation is the bottleneck.
People building AI memory
You’re assembling a second brain, a project memory or a knowledge base for your agents, and you’ve seen what happens when raw pages go in. Kurator makes every source arrive structured and attributed, in folders you can browse, filter and hand to any assistant.
Claude, ChatGPT and MCP power users
You’ve built folders, skills, and a memory file, and the weakest link is still getting clean web sources into them. With both assistants connected to one library, you can check a conclusion in Claude against ChatGPT in minutes.“Getting external web research into that local workspace remains a high-friction process.”
Academic researchers
Papers, gray literature, and policy briefs land described, cited, and filed by chapter — with the source link intact for verification.“Always manually verify your final citation list.”
NotebookLM users
Stop patching six single-purpose extensions together. Curate outside the notebook, sync in what earns its place, and keep your sources portable across notebooks.“Importing web sources directly is hit or miss.”
Product and UX researchers
Secondary research, competitive scans, and interview transcripts extracted against your own taxonomy the moment they’re captured.“Stop wasting research.”
Curators, publishers, and community operators
The same library that answers your questions privately can become a public resource hub, a newsletter, or an assistant your members can ask.“Give your community a reason to come back.”
The loop, running in production
One minute of human judgment per session.
The AI Marketers Guild publishes every weekly session through Kurator. After each one, a person adds the video to the sessions folder and transcribes it with a prompt they wrote. That’s the whole manual step.
Everything after it is automatic — and it produces three things at once from a single act of curation.

Questions
Before you add Kurator.
What is Kurator, and how is it different from a bookmark manager?
Kurator is an orchestration layer for AI research. When you save a page, one of your own prompts runs right then and writes a structured description for the use you have in mind, such as an outreach brief, a transcript, or a competitive summary. You decide what matters, and Kurator records that decision. A bookmark manager gives you back a link. Kurator gives you research that your AI tools can use again.
Claude and ChatGPT already have memory. Why do I need Kurator?
Built-in memory remembers things about you, not your research. It also stays inside one assistant. That is why people re-upload the same files into every new thread and re-explain context every time they switch tools. Kurator keeps your research library outside any single assistant, so it is available in Claude, in ChatGPT, in NotebookLM, on your website, and in whatever tool you use next.
How is this different from AI memory tools and self-building knowledge bases?
Most memory tools save everything automatically and keep it inside their own app. Wiki-style systems rewrite their notes as new material comes in. Kurator is a library you curate: you choose what goes in, your own prompt structures it, and you can see and filter everything by folder, tag, author or publisher. The same folders then work in Claude, ChatGPT, NotebookLM, KChat and on your website, so your memory is not tied to one tool.
I use Obsidian. Do I need Kurator?
Obsidian Web Clipper can also run a prompt when you save a page, so capture alone isn’t the difference. The difference is what you can do afterward. Kurator keeps your prompts in one library you pick from on each save. Your folders are organized and filterable, so you can see what’s there at a glance. You can filter a folder and export it as a file for any LLM, connect the same library to both Claude and ChatGPT without running a local server, and publish it to your website or a KChat assistant. Obsidian remains a great place for your own writing; Kurator is where your sources go to work.
I already use NotebookLM (now Gemini Notebook). Why add Kurator?
NotebookLM does its best work when the sources you give it are good. The usual complaints are imports that sometimes fail, the 50-source limit, no folders or bulk management, answers that cite only a few of your sources, and notes that are hard to export. Kurator prepares sources before they reach NotebookLM. In our own test, a directly uploaded workshop video came back as an unpunctuated wall of text with misspelled names. The Kurator version had speaker labels, timestamps, and correct names.
Does Kurator work with Claude and ChatGPT?
Yes, both. You add Kurator’s Cloud MCP connector to Claude or ChatGPT as a custom connector. Either assistant can then search your library, read the descriptions you’ve saved, and save new sources into your folders with your prompts and tags. Because both read the same folders, you can run the same analysis in Claude and in ChatGPT and compare the answers, a quick way to test an assumption before you rely on it.
What can I save?
You can save anything your browser can display, including pages behind a login. That covers articles, LinkedIn posts, Reddit threads with their comments, YouTube videos (with transcripts), PDFs, and your own AI conversations from Claude, ChatGPT, or Gemini. Each saved chat is a snapshot you can re-save after you ask follow-up questions.
Where is my data stored, and what does it cost?
Your library is stored in the cloud, which is what lets it sync and connect to Claude and ChatGPT. Prompts run with your own Gemini or OpenAI API key, which you add in AI Settings. You can export everything as JSON or XML at any time. Kurator is free for up to 100 links, and paid plans start at $4.99/month.
Ready to give your AI better memory?
Stop losing research in tabs, bookmarks, and chat histories.
Add Kurator and build a structured library every AI tool you use can query — instead of a pile of links you’ll never reopen and raw pages your AI turns into slop.

I am required to track the latest developments in national digital policies and strategies. I am very impressed with the capabilities of Kurator and KBucket for capturing and publishing content. I now use Pagescreen to track important websites and capture publication/research links using Kurator. These links can then be published using KBucket on WordPress. Kurator with Pagescreen has been a game-changer for me. I wish Karan the best for the significant enhancements in the pipeline that should take Kurator to an entirely new level.
