Start.me
Start.me is a visual start page and bookmark manager for organizing websites, tools, RSS feeds, notes, and widgets on customizable pages. Users can group links into pages and widgets, then import or export bookmarks. Pages are hosted online and stay in sync across browsers and devices. Widgets include notes, tasks, calendars, clocks, focus timers, RSS feeds, charts, weather, financial information, and embedded content. Optional AI tools can tidy bookmark titles, sort links, or suggest sites, and operate only when selected. Pages can be shared publicly or privately; teams can collaborate in shared workspaces with role-based access. Team controls include SSO/SAML 2.0, administration, branding, and custom subdomains. The personal Free plan allows up to three start pages, basic widgets, and includes advertising. PRO costs $25 a year and adds unlimited pages, more features and widgets, no ads, and AI features. Team costs $25 a month, billed annually, and includes 10 users, a team workspace, branding, a custom subdomain, and SAML2 SSO. Start.me is available on Android, iOS, web, and as a browser extension.
