Key features
Collect Web Content As Files
With our Web Clipper browser extension for Chrome, Edge, and Firefox, you can save web content directly to your hard drive as plain files (HTML, MHTML/PDF, PNG, URL) for offline use. This way your content is not locked into any online service.
- Save entire web pages or just parts of them, allowing you to edit or read them later.
- Capture screenshots from webpage.
- Create bookmarks to webpage, which is turning TagSpaces to a bookmark manager
- Extract geo-coordinates from Google Maps or Openstreetmap as geo-tags.
Tag and Annotate any File or Folder
Unlike most file tagging applications, we do not store tags in a centralized way. As a result, the added metadata is not tied to any specific vendor.
- Organize your photos, documents, music, recipes, invoices or even folders with tags.
- Organizing files with drag and drop to folders.
- Add description to any file or folder.
- Use local AI to generate tags and description.
- Use colors for folders or tags, making them unique and easy to visually find.
- Add custom thumbnails to files and folders.

With the help of the free Ollama AI-engine, TagSpaces offers a powerful way to use local large language models (LLMs) for various tasks, fully offline:
- Manage unlimited local AI-chats
- Tagging and summarization of text based files like HTML, TXT, MarkDown and PDF
- Automatic tagging, annotation and extraction of dominant colors for images
- Batch AI-processing of multiple files
- Defining the output language for generated content

What people are saying?
I moved from Evernote after their pricing changed. TagSpaces with the Web Clipper extension now does everything I need — I clip articles locally, tag them by story, and search across 800+ saved pages instantly. Nothing leaves my machine.
Marcus T. - Freelance Investigative Writer
I shoot around 2,000 RAW files per trip. TagSpaces’ geo-tagging feature lets me pin shots to locations on the map view, and the gallery perspective makes culling visually intuitive. I finally retired Lightroom’s catalog for browsing.
Nils B. - Travel Photographer
I manage over 3,000 papers without a reference manager. Each PDF gets subject and year tags, and I keep a markdown summary note next to it. When I switched laptops, my entire research library moved with one folder copy.
Elena F. - PhD Researcher, Environmental Sciences
We use the Kanban perspective to run our sprint board entirely offline. Subfolders are columns, files are cards. Our team stopped paying for a Trello subscription and the board works the same on a plane as it does in the office.
Sandra K. - Project Manager
Client confidentiality means I can’t use cloud storage for case files. TagSpaces Pro with a self-hosted Garage S3 instance gives our firm shared access to documents with zero data leaving our infrastructure. GDPR compliance is no longer a worry.
Claire M. - Corporate Lawyer
I tag assets by client using color-coded labels and browse everything in gallery view. Finding a specific mockup from a year-old project now takes seconds instead of minutes. I stopped duplicating files across Dropbox folders to keep clients separated.
Aiko R. - Brand Designer
I store code snippets, runbooks, and architecture notes as markdown files and organize them with TagSpaces tags. Full-text search finds anything in seconds. The data is just files — no proprietary database, no vendor to depend on.
Dmitri V. - Software Developer
We were spending €60/month on cloud file management for a team of five. TagSpaces Pro Web on our own server replaced it entirely. Setup took an afternoon. The tag-based search means nobody wastes time hunting through folder trees.
Thomas H. - Small Business Owner
Architectural projects generate enormous amounts of drawings, specs, and correspondence. I tag everything by project phase and file type. The offline-first approach means I can review files on a construction site with no signal and still find what I need.
Mateo G. - Architect
