# Keep anything as Markdown

Learn how to save notes, links, images, videos, PDFs, audio, and other useful material as clean Markdown in Keep.

Keep saves useful content and thoughts as clean Markdown. Use it for notes, links, images, videos, PDFs, audio, and other material that you want to read or find again. Connected AI agents can use the same library when you want their help.

## Save your first item or note

-   [Capture something](https://keep.md/docs/capture) from the app, browser, share sheet, or a file on your device.
-   [Read the saved Markdown](https://keep.md/docs/reading) without the clutter from the source page.
-   [Write a note](https://keep.md/docs/notes) for your own ideas, plans, and checklists.
-   [Search your library](https://keep.md/docs/search) by exact words or meaning.

## Use your Markdown library

Your [notes](https://keep.md/docs/notes) hold ideas, decisions, plans, checklists, and other text you write. [Connected agents](https://keep.md/docs/agents) explains how named clients share the same library without overwriting newer work. [Search](https://keep.md/docs/search) finds notes and captured items together. Use [tags and collections](https://keep.md/docs/organize) when you want more structure.

## Capture and review source material

Use [Capture](https://keep.md/docs/capture), the [browser extension](https://keep.md/docs/extension), the [mobile share sheet](https://keep.md/docs/mobile), or [automatic sources](https://keep.md/docs/subscriptions) to save supporting material. Use [Saved](https://keep.md/docs/feed) to review it. The [reader](https://keep.md/docs/reading) shows saved Markdown, highlights, and connected notes.

Use [Import](https://keep.md/docs/import) and [Export](https://keep.md/docs/export) to move data. The [Settings guide](https://keep.md/docs/settings) lists account, source, connection, and display controls.

## Connect AI tools and other apps

Use [MCP](https://keep.md/docs/mcp) or the [CLI](https://keep.md/docs/cli) to search and update Keep from an AI client or terminal. The [Keep skill](https://keep.md/docs/skill) teaches compatible agents how to use notes and items. Developers can also use [API keys](https://keep.md/docs/api-keys), the [API reference](https://keep.md/docs/api), and [webhooks](https://keep.md/docs/webhooks).
