The Pocket alternative that doesn't disappear.

Pocket saved a reading list — a link to come back to later. When it shut down in 2025, that list disappeared too. The Starchive saves a full, faithfully rendered copy of the actual page, not just a link, so your archive survives even if the original site — or the read-it-later app itself — goes away.

Not automatically today — we don't have a one-click Pocket importer. If you still have a list of URLs saved (from an old export or your browser bookmarks), you can save them into The Starchive one at a time through the dashboard or the browser extension. If a bulk importer would help, tell us at [email protected] — it's the kind of thing we'd prioritize based on demand.

You can, and for some people that's the right call — they're great open-source tools if you want full control and don't mind running a server. The Starchive is for everyone else: all the permanence, none of the maintenance. No server to patch, no storage to manage, no backups to babysit — just save a page and it's there.

Yes. Every page is loaded in a real, headless browser and given time to render before it's saved, so dynamic content, single-page apps, and scripted layouts come through as they would for a live visitor.

Yes — The Starchive extension for Chrome or Firefox lets you save the page you're currently viewing in one click, without switching tabs or copying a URL.

Yes. The browser extension can archive a page exactly as you see it signed in — a forum thread as a logged-in member, an internal wiki page, an account dashboard — instead of whatever a logged-out visitor would see. The first time you use it on a given site, your browser asks for one-time permission to forward that site's session to Starchive for the capture; decline and the page still saves, just as the logged-out view. Nothing is ever stored by the extension itself.

$5/month covers your first 100 archives, then just +$1/month per additional 50 as your library grows. Every plan includes full-fidelity capture, full-text search, folders, and secure sharing. Start with a 14-day free trial — no credit card required.
