Omnivore, the open-source read-it-later app, wound down after its team was acquired in late 2024, and its users scattered to self-hosted options like Wallabag or to paid apps. Flocci Recall is a hosted alternative that covers the same article job and adds short-form video, notes, places and products in one library.
The facts about Omnivore
- Omnivore announced its wind-down after an acquisition in late 2024.
- Its shutdown, followed by Pocket's in 2025, pushed many users toward self-hosting.
- Self-hosting solves ownership but not discovery — a self-hosted list is still a list.
Why Flocci Recall is a real replacement
- Full export is a first-class endpoint in Recall, not an afterthought — your library leaves whole.
- Understanding travels with the export: summaries, takeaways, topics and keywords, not just URLs.
- One library for articles and short-form video, which no article-first tool offers.
Questions people ask
Is Recall open source?
No, Recall is a hosted product from Flocci Technologies. What it does offer is unconditional export: your entire library, including the AI-generated understanding, is available through an export endpoint at any time.
What happens to my saves if Recall changes?
Export exists precisely so that question has an answer. The export endpoint returns your whole library — items, collections, notes and generated understanding — in a portable form.
