Curo

• My browser bookmarks are such a mess that I cannot find anything

Bookmarks accumulate for years across every browser a person has used, and most managers only ever add to that pile — they don't audit it. Curo set out to treat an unmanaged bookmarks bar as a data-quality problem: duplicates, dead folders and links nobody will ever find again, entirely inside the browser with no account and no server.

The product needed to take a raw HTML bookmarks export from any browser and turn it into something a person could trust — deduplicated, organized and scored — without ever sending that browsing history anywhere, which ruled out any server-side processing or account system.

Looked at how existing bookmark managers handle duplicates and found most only catch exact-URL matches — near-duplicates, like the same article with different tracking params, went untouched, which is why fuzzy grouping became the core of the product rather than a secondary feature.

The key findings that shaped the direction.

1. 01

   Start from an import, not an empty state. Built the first-run experience around dragging in an existing HTML bookmarks export, with a live preview of what will be added, so the product proves its value against a person's real, messy library on the first screen.

2. 02

   Separate detection from resolution. Split duplicate handling into a detection pass — exact-URL and fuzzy-title grouping — and a resolution step, so bulk cleanup never silently merges or deletes anything without an explicit choice.

3. 03

   Make the score explain itself. Broke the Knowledge Health Score into five weighted, individually adjustable factors — duplicate-free, organized, tagged, well-labeled, fresh — each with its own explanation of what's dragging it down.

4. 04

   Treat local storage as the entire architecture. Designed every interaction — search, tagging, collections, export — around IndexedDB as the only datastore, which meant designing for what happens when a user clears their browser data, not just the happy path.

A local-first bookmark manager that imports any browser's bookmarks export, detects exact and fuzzy duplicates, flags organizational gaps, and scores the whole library on a configurable Knowledge Health Score — entirely client-side.

• HTML bookmarks import from Chrome, Firefox, Safari or Edge with a live preview before anything is written
• Exact-URL and fuzzy near-duplicate detection with one-click bulk merge
• Cleanup Engine flagging missing metadata, empty folders and broken hierarchies
• Custom and automatic collections, fuzzy search, and export to HTML, CSV, JSON or Markdown
