Sound familiar?
You consume more than ever. You keep almost none of it.
- Your “Watch later” list is a graveyard.
- You screenshot things to remember them — and never look again.
- You finish a two-hour podcast and can’t recall a single point.
- You bookmark articles “for later.” Later never comes.
- You’ve learned the same idea three times — and forgot it three times.
Your saves sort themselves
No folders. No tags. Still organised.
Every save lands in the right topic on its own — Startups, Psychology, Productivity and whatever else you're into. Open a topic and everything you've kept on it is there. Want folders of your own as well? Make them.

- 0:00 The Library’s Topics tab shows a three-column grid of topics with their save counts: Self-Improvement, Psychology, Artificial Intelligence, Engineering & Hardware, Business & Marketing, Film & Media, Neuroscience, Productivity and more.

What this video shows: A silent screen recording of the Feed tab in the Recl Android app: a swipeable stream of key ideas (nuggets) from saved content.
- 0:00 The Feed tab shows one nugget: a quote card, the idea’s title, a one-line summary, three key points, and Like, Comment, Share and Read buttons.
- 0:02 A swipe up brings the next nugget, “Increasing Your Luck Surface Area”, saved from codusoperandi.com.
A better scroll
Going to scroll anyway? Scroll what you saved.
The feed turns your library into a swipeable stream of key ideas — one nugget at a time, from things you chose to keep. Ten minutes in it beats an hour of someone else's algorithm.
Ask your library
Ask Recl about anything you've saved.
Your saves become something you can talk to. Ask a question and Recl answers from what you saved, and shows you where it came from.
What this video shows: A silent screen recording of Ask in the Recl Android app: a question about your own saves, answered from three saved videos with their sources.
- 0:00 The Ask screen opens with “Ask Recl about anything you’ve saved” and suggested questions such as “What are the main topics in my saves?”.
- 0:01 The question “What did I save about startups?” is typed and sent.
- 0:04 Recl shows “Thinking…” while it looks through the saves.
- 0:06 The answer appears: “You have saved three videos that focus on startups.” It lists Lecture 1 – How to Start a Startup (Sam Altman and Dustin Moskovitz), Peter Thiel – Competition Is For Losers, and How to Start a Business, each with the date it was saved, a one-line summary and a numbered source marker.
- 0:11 The Sources row under the answer scrolls through the saved videos it used.
Find it again
Remember a feeling, not the title?
Half-remember a video? Describe it your way in the Chrome or Edge extension and Recl finds it by meaning. Or just ask, and get an answer from your own saves, with sources. Then the knowledge graph puts ideas you met months apart side by side.
See how ideas connect
Saved 8 months apart. Side by side, through an idea they share.

Questions
Good to know.
What is Recl?
Recl is an AI learning app for the videos, reels, podcasts, posts and articles you save. Save something in one tap and Recl writes a summary of the key ideas (with timestamps for video), files it by topic, brings those ideas back on a spaced schedule — after 1, 3, 7, 14, 30 and 60 days — and quizzes you on what you saved, so you remember it. It works on iPhone, iPad, Android, the web, Chrome and Edge.
Is there a free plan?
Not right now. Recl is a paid app — monthly and yearly plans both unlock every feature, and you can cancel anytime.
Is there a mobile app?
Yes. Recl is live on Google Play for Android and on the App Store for iPhone and iPad. There's also an extension for Chrome and Microsoft Edge, and the web app works everywhere.
What can I save?
YouTube videos and playlists, Instagram reels, TikToks, X, Facebook and Reddit posts, Substack and Medium articles, podcasts on YouTube, web links, notes and selected text — from the share sheet, the Chrome or Edge extension, the web, or by sending a post or reel to @reco.save in an Instagram DM.
How is Recl different from bookmarks or a read-later app?
Bookmarks pile up and you never open them again. Recl reads what you save, writes the summary, sorts it into topics, brings the key ideas back on a spaced schedule and quizzes you on them, so they actually stick.
What happens after I save something?
Recl builds a structured summary with the key ideas, timestamps and topics, so you get the point without rewatching. Everything lands in one searchable library.
Does Recl organise my saves for me?
Yes. Every save is sorted into topics automatically — Neuroscience, Startups, Philosophy and so on — so your library stays organised without folders or tags.
How does Recl help me remember?
Recl brings the key ideas from each save back on a spaced schedule — a day after you save it, then after 3 days, a week, two weeks, a month and two months. One tap marks it reviewed.
Does Recl quiz me on what I save?
Yes. Each week Recl writes a quiz from what you saved and sends it to your phone as a notification, and curated videos in the public library have their own quizzes. Quizzes are in the iPhone, iPad and Android app.
Can I ask questions about what I have saved?
Yes. Ask your library a question and Recl answers from your own saves, with links to the ones it used.
Can I see connections between what I save?
Yes. The web app includes a knowledge graph that links your videos, articles and notes by the topics they share, and the app shows your knowledge base as a 3D map you can explore.
Is there a community?
Yes, for Recl Pro members. Community is a live chat in the app where members talk about what they're learning, with replies and @mentions. Members can also like and comment on cards in the Feed and appear on the Leaderboard. Messages disappear after an hour, links aren't allowed, abusive words are blocked, and any message can be reported.
Can I share my library?
Your library is private. If you want, make a public profile with shelves of favourite books, films, quotes and music, and share the link.
What language are summaries in?
Recl writes summaries in your app's language, so you can save a video in one language and read the summary in yours. The app comes in 20 languages.
How do I cancel?
Plans renew automatically until you cancel. Cancel anytime from your App Store or Google Play subscriptions, or from billing on the web.
