Wakelet is a content curation platform that helps you save, organize, and share links, files, videos, notes, images, and ideas in visual collections.

Where did the name "Wakelet" come from?

A wake is the trail a boat or plane leaves as it moves, starting in one place, growing as it goes, ending somewhere else entirely. Collections work the same way. You add one thing, then another, and what you end up with is a story.

Where is Wakelet based?

We are based in the UK and the US, with our headquarters in Manchester, UK.

Just about everyone. Individuals and families, teachers and students, teams and researchers, startups and businesses, health organisations, governments and universities. Millions of people across 170 countries, including the NHS, the World Health Organization, the UK Government and Harvard University.

Is Wakelet safe, private, and accessible?

Yes, your collections are private by default and nothing is public until you choose to share it. Wakelet is COPPA, FERPA, CSPC, EDLAW2D and GDPR compliant, and meets WCAG 2.1 AA accessibility standards. It is used by schools, districts, health organisations and governments.

How it started.

Our founder Jamil kept running into the same problem.

Every time he wanted to share University research, trip recommendations, resources for work, it turned into an unwieldy document or an email full of links.

There was no good way to gather things that mattered, lay them out properly, and hand them to someone else.

So he built one.

Our approach to AI.

Ther'es never been more to find or discover. More ideas, more voices, more information reaching more people than ever.

AI's opened that up further still - making the world's information instantly accessible.
‍
With this new, endless volume of material, the valuable part now becomes knowing what's worth keeping, and what to do with it once you have it.

AI tools can surface, summarise and produce. What they can't do is surface your own knowledge, your own taste, your experience, the story you're trying to tell.

That's what we mean when we say "The humans are coming."

Choosing, shaping, giving something meaning?

That part is always ours.

What we believe in.

The principles we live by every day.

Wakelet is built on three fundamental truths that guide our team, our product, and our brand.

Humans first

Every feature starts with a person trying to do something. Not a metric, not a feed, not an engagement target. If it doesn't help someone think, keep or share more clearly, we don't build it.
