244k is a search launcher + custom start page. Your navigation data stays in your browser. See Why 244k and Open-source static pack below.
Why 244k
Not a feature checklist — a different way to keep bookmarks, compared to the browser bar or traditional link portals.
- No login: open and use. No account, email, or password.
- Better than browser bookmarks: add, edit, and categorize freely — custom groups, site cards, and home sections in one visual page.
- Data stays local: bookmarks and layout live in
localStorageon your device — not on our servers. - Zero telemetry: the live site and open-source static pack have no analytics, no tracking, no backend API reading your navigation.
- Clear cache → gone: wipe browser data on a shared PC and your nav disappears — no cloud copy left behind.
- One JSON file, anywhere: export from Settings; share by email or USB; restore while traveling or with teammates.
- Self-host the same thing: the static pack is HTML/CSS/JS with a compatible JSON nav bundle format (v1) — deploy locally or on your domain, data still yours.
In short: your start page is a portable JSON config, not an account on someone else's service.
Open-source static pack · self-host
To download, open offline, or deploy on your own server, use our homepage-only static pack on GitHub (sample industry JSON + Skills docs):
https://github.com/244k/244k-startpage
Open index.html after download. Import/export JSON uses the same format as the live site. For the full online experience (AI tools directory, time tools, etc.), keep using the live site.
