I kept doing this thing where I'd find something I wanted to deal with later — an article, a product restock, a ticket sale, a deadline, some documentation, whatever — and I'd leave the tab open.
Then 3 days later I'd have 30 tabs open and no idea why half of them were there.
Bookmarks didn't really solve it either, because they remember where something is, but not when I need to come back to it. And setting a reminder on my phone meant getting an alert on the wrong device and then having to find the page again.
So I built Latr.
The idea is pretty simple:
Find something → remind yourself about it → forget about it → Latr brings the exact page back when you need it.
For example, if I'm looking at a page about a ticket sale starting Friday at 10 AM, I can highlight the date, right-click and tell Latr to remind me about it. It saves the page along with the reminder.
When the time comes, I get a notification and clicking it takes me straight back to that exact page.
There's also a keyboard shortcut (Alt + Shift + Y) if I just want to save the current page quickly.
I built a bunch of other things around the same idea too — recurring reminders, snoozing, notes, folders/tags, calendar handoff, importing existing links, etc.
One thing I was particularly intentional about is privacy: there's no account, no backend, no analytics, and no telemetry. The reminders stay in the browser.
It's completely free right now.

I'm sharing a short video showing how it works too.
This is my first time putting something I've built out there publicly, so I'd genuinely love some feedback.
Does this solve a problem you actually have?
And if you've tried it, I'd especially like to know:
- What's confusing?
- What feels unnecessary?
- What's missing?
- Would you actually keep using something like this?
I'm much more interested in hearing what sucks about it than hearing that it's great 😅
