Ancher

Ancher is a tool for saving and recalling content you read, watch, and save. You can capture URLs, PDFs, podcasts, videos, screenshots, and posts from a browser, Slack, Telegram, email, a web app, mobile, or a browser extension. Ancher creates structured notes from each source, automatically links new content to what you have saved, and lets you ask an agent questions grounded in your own sources. Collections group related notes so that creation tasks draw from chosen sources. Users can generate memos, briefs, decks, and posts in their own voice. The page states that data is encrypted, is never used to train AI, and can be erased by the user. Sign-in is available with Google. Free, Digest ($5/mo or $59.99 billed yearly), and Pro ($15/mo or $179.99 billed yearly) plans are listed, with credit allowances per plan.
