Social Archiver saves public posts, your own posts and other content you have permission to keep in a searchable archive. It offers web, mobile, Chrome extension and Obsidian clients, including standalone iOS and Android apps. Archives can include rich metadata, images or videos where supported, and Markdown output in Obsidian. Organization tools include profile crawling, scheduled subscriptions, a searchable timeline, tags, places and collections. Its guide covers 21 platforms and sources, including Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, Reddit, YouTube, LinkedIn, X/Twitter, Threads, podcasts, Substack and RSS blogs; available functions differ by source. Saved posts, notes and media are primarily stored on-device. Enabling sync or web sharing can send related content and metadata to Social Archiver's servers. AI comments can use desktop CLI tools, Apple's on-device model or Cloud AI. Cloud AI can summarize, translate, create glossaries and suggest tags, but long archives may exceed its length limit. The free plan allows ten successful archives per month; Premium Monthly costs $3.99 a month, while Premium Annual costs $39.99 a year.
