Pavo20 camera mount and antenna holder
A printable mount that moves the camera forward and protects the antenna on a compact FPV build.
Semantic bookmark search for Mac
Find the bookmark you saved without remembering its name
Unbury searches your browser bookmarks by meaning, not just matching words. Ask for “that 3D-printed part for the drone” and find the page even when its title says something else.

What you can actually ask
Three questions a bookmarks folder cannot answer
A folder tree answers "where did I file it". These are the questions people actually have, and they are the ones Unbury was built for.
01
“What did I save this month about AI agents?”
Topic and time
A subject plus a stretch of time. The time phrase is pulled out and used as a filter, so it narrows the dates instead of muddying the meaning.
02
“That 3D-printed part for the Pavo 20”
A concrete need
You remember what the link was, not what it was called. Search by meaning is the only kind that survives that.
03
“Did I already have something like this?”
Similar to this one
Before you save the fourth article on the same thing, ask whether the pile already has it.
Search
It tells you when it found nothing
A right answer scores about 0.60 here; unrelated links sit at 0.44 to 0.47. That gap is narrow, so Unbury keeps only what is within 12% of the best result, and only when the best clears the bar. When nothing does, the screen says so and offers the weak matches on request instead of dressing three of them up as answers.
It runs when you ask it to
Nothing fires while you type. Half a sentence is a different question when you search by meaning, so search happens on Return.
The screen never lies about what it shows
Change the question and the match count and score disappear, and the list beneath is labelled with the question it actually answers.
Best match0.78
The saved page is close enough to trust. Weak matches stay out of the way.
Ask Unbury
Ask a question, watch it do the searching
Ask Unbury is not handed a list of results. It runs the search itself, and when the first attempt comes back weak it rephrases and goes again. Every search it ran and everything that came back stays in the transcript, and the evidence panel separates the links that carry the answer from the ones it read and set aside.
Read-only
It never changes a link. It does keep the conversation — an index beside your library, with a sidebar, new conversations and delete.
It runs on what you already pay for
Two of the three engines are command-line tools already on your Mac — Claude Code and Codex — and they spend the subscription you have rather than your API key. The third sends the work to a model on OpenRouter, which is far quicker and costs fractions of a cent. The list only offers the CLIs it can actually find installed.

Your library
Two files on your Mac, and one of them you could read
Your links live in ~/Library/Application Support/Unbury: vault.json, which is plain text a person can open, and vectors.bin, a flat block of numbers. Around 3 MB for 600 links, with your settings and any saved conversations in the same folder. No account, no server, no sync you did not ask for.
Search rests on your own vocabulary
With nothing typed, the search screen is the tags your collection is made of — the most-used first, each with the number of links behind it. Browsing your own collection never costs anything.
Narrowing stacks
Pick several tags at once and the cloud collapses to what is still reachable from where you are.
Library is the collection read back

Getting your links in
The browser is the inbox, not the list
You save a link while browsing, then import when you feel like it. There is no watcher and no scheduler, on purpose. Unbury reads your browser profiles and never writes to them.
It says what it will do first
Which profiles it found, how many links are new, and roughly what the import will cost — before it starts, not after it has spent your money.
It saves as it goes
In batches, so stopping halfway never throws away work already paid for.
Deleting in the browser does not delete here
The link stays, marked as no longer in the browser, and still turns up in searches. Losing something because a browser was tidied is worse than keeping a stale row.

How it works
What happens to a link, and what it costs
Unbury costs nothing to install and is not a subscription, but two of the things it does spend money — through an API key you supply, on models chosen for being cheap and good rather than famous. OpenRouter by default; OpenAI if you would rather not have a second company in the middle.
1
It reads the page
The link is fetched and stripped to text. Sites that refuse to be fetched still get described, from the title and the domain.
2
A model says what it is
One line in plain English, plus tags — reusing a tag you already have before inventing a variant of it.
3
That description becomes numbers
A vector, which is what makes "the drone part" find a page titled something else entirely.
4
Searching compares them on your Mac
Ranking 600 links takes about a millisecond, locally. When you search, the only thing that leaves the Mac is the question itself, to be turned into numbers.
What leaves your Mac
Browsing and filtering
Nothing leaves your Mac.
Pressing Return on a search
The question is sent to be vectorised. Real, but thousandths of a cent.
Importing and asking
The two that cost. Both say what they will cost before they run.
FAQ
Questions before you hand over your bookmarks
The app costs nothing and the source is MIT-licensed, but it is not free to run: it uses an API key you pay for, from OpenRouter or OpenAI. Importing 600 links cost about $0.42. A search costs thousandths of a cent. Browsing and filtering your library cost nothing at all.
No. Your library stays on your Mac. When you press Return on a search, the question you typed is sent to the provider whose key you supplied, to be turned into numbers — the question, never the library. The privacy page names every moment something leaves, including the two you would not think of.
Brave, Chrome, Arc, Edge and Vivaldi. Safari and Firefox keep their bookmarks in a different format and are not read yet. Unbury reads those bookmark files on your Mac profile by profile, shows you which profiles it found before importing anything, and never writes to them.
A Mac with Apple Silicon running macOS 14 or later, and an API key you paste into Settings — OpenRouter by default, or OpenAI. Keys are kept in the macOS Keychain, not in a file beside your data.
Because a search tool that always returns something cannot be trusted. When no link is close enough to the question, Unbury tells you the best score it saw and offers the weak matches on request.
Yes. Unbury checks for new releases itself and has since its first release, and you can also check by hand from the Unbury menu or from Settings.
