About Kurator

Turn browsing into a ๐˜€๐˜๐—ฟ๐˜‚๐—ฐ๐˜๐˜‚๐—ฟ๐—ฒ๐—ฑ ๐—ธ๐—ป๐—ผ๐˜„๐—น๐—ฒ๐—ฑ๐—ด๐—ฒ ๐—ฏ๐—ฎ๐˜€๐—ฒ your AI tools can actually use with Kurator AI made discovery cheap. It did not solve what happens next. You can spend an hour researching and come away with excellent sources, arguments, and insights - and then watch all of it vanish: - Into a closed tab, - Into a bookmark folder you will never reopen - Into a chat history you would have to re-read to mine. The problem was never finding information. It is that nothing structures it at the moment you decide it matters. Kurator is a browser extension that closes that gap. It sits between the open web and everything you do downstream, turning what you read into structured, described, tagged research - automatically, at the point of capture - so it is ready to be queried, synthesized, and published later. ๐‘ช๐’‚๐’‘๐’•๐’–๐’“๐’† โ†’ ๐‘บ๐’•๐’“๐’–๐’„๐’•๐’–๐’“๐’† โ†’ ๐‘น๐’†๐’–๐’”๐’†. ๐Ÿญ. ๐—–๐—”๐—ฃ๐—ง๐—จ๐—ฅ๐—˜ โ€” ๐—ฎ๐—ป๐˜†๐˜๐—ต๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ด ๐˜†๐—ผ๐˜‚ ๐—ฐ๐—ฎ๐—ป ๐—ผ๐—ฝ๐—ฒ๐—ป, ๐˜†๐—ผ๐˜‚ ๐—ฐ๐—ฎ๐—ป ๐—ธ๐—ฒ๐—ฒ๐—ฝ Click Kurator on any page and save it as a structured post, not a naked link. - Articles, blog posts, docs, and PDFs - YouTube videos, with full transcripts and timestamps - AI conversations and research sessions - Whole projects, organized into folders and nested collections Capture happens in your browser, from the page you are actually reading. That matters more than it sounds: server-side scrapers get blocked by paywalls, login walls, and sites that refuse bots. Kurator reads the page you already have open, so the sources other tools cannot reach are the ones you keep. ๐Ÿฎ. ๐—ฆ๐—ง๐—ฅ๐—จ๐—–๐—ง๐—จ๐—ฅ๐—˜ โ€” ๐—”๐—œ ๐˜„๐—ฟ๐—ถ๐˜๐—ฒ๐˜€ ๐˜๐—ต๐—ฒ ๐—ฑ๐—ฒ๐˜€๐—ฐ๐—ฟ๐—ถ๐—ฝ๐˜๐—ถ๐—ผ๐—ป ๐˜„๐—ต๐—ถ๐—น๐—ฒ ๐˜†๐—ผ๐˜‚ ๐˜€๐—ฎ๐˜ƒ๐—ฒ This is the part that makes a library worth having. When you save, Kurator runs your prompt against the content and generates the description for you. Not a generic summary โ€” the exact output shape you defined. - Write and save your own prompts: - Extract methodology, sample size, and limitations. - Pull the strategic implications and the risks. - Summarize this for the newsletter with three candidate headlines. - Break this video into sections with timestamps. Pick which prompt runs per save, so a folder of twenty sources comes back in one consistent format instead of twenty different ones, then - Add tags, author, publisher, and search context on the way in - Clean up long video transcripts: strip filler, section them, headline them, extract the recommendations You direct. AI does the structuring. Every item lands described, tagged, and searchable, filterable by headline, description, author, publisher, or tag across your whole library or inside a single folder. ๐Ÿฏ. ๐—ฅ๐—˜๐—จ๐—ฆ๐—˜ โ€” ๐—ผ๐—ป๐—ฒ ๐—ฐ๐˜‚๐—ฟ๐—ฎ๐˜๐—ฒ๐—ฑ ๐—น๐—ถ๐—ฏ๐—ฟ๐—ฎ๐—ฟ๐˜†, ๐—ฒ๐˜ƒ๐—ฒ๐—ฟ๐˜† ๐—ฑ๐—ผ๐˜„๐—ป๐˜€๐˜๐—ฟ๐—ฒ๐—ฎ๐—บ ๐˜๐—ผ๐—ผ๐—น A structured library is only valuable if it feeds something.
