Is Karakeep safe?

Clean risk

Karakeep can capture the active page HTML and upload it to your configured Karakeep server when saving a bookmark.

If client-side crawling is enabled, Karakeep requests access to all sites and serializes the active page in the browser when you save a bookmark. It uploads that HTML as a file to the configured Karakeep asset endpoint using your API key, then links the returned archive ID to the saved bookmark.

Where it sends data

Destinations our analysis observed Karakeep contacting. Sending data somewhere is not a finding on its own - an extension that syncs your settings has to talk to its own server - but it is where your data can go, and who else it goes to.
