Keep/Docs

Review saved context in your Feed

Review saved Items, find entries that need context, organise them in bulk, and open clean Markdown content in the Keep Feed.

The Feed holds captured source material. Links, documents, screenshots, transcripts, newsletters, and synced posts appear here as Items.

Notes hold your own decisions and working knowledge. The Feed holds the source material that supports them.

Review everything you saved

Open your Feed to see the newest Items first. Keep groups recent Items by date. A busy source may appear as one expandable row when Feed rollups are enabled for that source.

Select an Item to open its reading view. The reader shows the saved metadata, summary, Markdown, media, highlights, and connected Notes that are available. The reading view guide covers those controls.

Find Items that need context

Select Needs context at the top of the Feed. This view shows Items that do not have any of the following:

  • a personal note
  • a description supplied by the source
  • an AI summary
  • a connected Note

Open an Item and add the detail that will make it useful later. A short note about why you saved it is often enough.

Tags, collections, and processed state do not count as context on their own. The empty state says Nothing needs context when every loaded Item has an explanation or connected Note.

Search and filter the Feed

Use the search box to match saved Items by text. You can add filter tokens to the same query.

filter example
Tag tag:research or #research
Collection in:"client work"
Source source:github

Keep suggests matching tags, collections, and sources while you type. Press / when the Feed is open to focus the search box.

The search guide covers global search across both Notes and Items.

Organise one Item

Open the Item menu from a Feed row or the reading view. The available actions include:

  • open the original page
  • copy the original link
  • copy or download the saved Markdown
  • add or remove tags and collections
  • create a connected Note
  • edit the title and personal notes
  • run automatic tagging
  • subscribe to a detected source
  • send the Item to Kindle
  • archive or delete the Item

Use Retry capture when extraction failed. Use Extract content when Keep only has the link and metadata.

Archive or delete several Items

  1. Open the Feed.
  2. Select the checklist button near the page title.
  3. Select each Item you want to change.
  4. Choose Select all matching items if the whole filtered result should be included.
  5. Select Archive or Delete.
  6. Confirm a permanent deletion.

Items that are still processing cannot be selected.

Archive removes an Item from the active Feed. Delete permanently removes the Item and its saved content.

Change what each Feed row shows

Open Feed display settings to show or hide favicons, tags, personal notes, and collections. These settings change the Feed layout. They do not remove data from an Item.

Source rollups are managed separately in source settings.
