About

Dossier

Features
Read full description

Turn your X bookmarks into a searchable archive with AI titles, summaries, categories and tags. Dossier saves your archive on your device and lets you export it to the tools you use. PAY FOR WHAT YOU IMPORT Connect X to receive 20 free starter credits once per X account. One credit imports and organises one previously unimported bookmark. Already imported bookmarks are skipped without using credits. Check your available X bookmarks before importing: a completed scan costs 0.5 credits and shows how many remain and how many more credits you need. Buy 200 or 1,000 credits when you need more. Purchased credits never expire; no new subscription is required. Prices are shown in your local currency. RESUME YOUR ARCHIVE Imports use pages of up to 90 bookmarks and pause when fewer than one credit remains. Top up to continue the unfinished backlog, including the remainder of a page. Already imported bookmarks are skipped on later pulls; retrying the same interrupted delivery does not charge twice. X may omit unavailable posts, and a scan is a snapshot of the bookmarks X returns. Share individual X links to Dossier to queue them for import. YOUR SAVED ARCHIVE STAYS AVAILABLE Browse, search and export saved content even at zero credits. Credit balances follow your connected X account across devices. Existing purchases remain supported for their paid duration. AI AND PRIVACY With your permission, DeepSeek processes bookmark text, author names and content signals to organise your imports. Choose Apple AI in Settings > AI Engine to organise imports with Apple Foundation Models: Private Cloud Compute on eligible iOS 27 devices, subject to Apple's availability, locale and quota checks, or on-device models on supported devices running iOS 26 or later. Apple selection never switches to DeepSeek automatically. DeepSeek remains a separate choice and processes content only with your explicit permission. Your permanent archive stays on-device. The worker retains a temporary delivery copy for up to 24 hours to recover interrupted pulls, then deletes it, including for Apple imports. Apple AI does not change credit charges: one credit still imports and organises one previously unimported bookmark. Terms of Use: https://mashdev.co.za/terms
