> Turn Twitter bookmarks into a searchable AI knowledge base with citations

YapThread imports your saved Twitter/X bookmarks via a browser extension and organizes them into a searchable library. An AI assistant queries your saved content to answer questions, cite original tweets, and surface specific quotes so your bookmarks do not get lost.

## Why it was saved

- [@rileybrown, 22 January 2025](https://x.com/rileybrown/status/1882151686090711520): Solves the 'liked/bookmarked tweets are a graveyard' problem: instead of scrolling bookmarks, you can ask natural-language questions ('what's the recent news on DeepSeek?') and get answers with direct quotes from the tweets you saved, each linked to its source. Supports sources from multiple platforms (YouTube transcript imports announced as coming soon).
