Shelf is a read-it-later app that stores your articles in your own Google Drive — not our servers. No lock-in. Your data, always yours.
No credit card required · Bring your own storage
Every article you save lives in a folder in your Google Drive. We hold only the metadata needed to find it. Pull the plug on us any time — your library stays.
Group articles into named collections. Share a reading list with a link, or invite specific people by email — with or without a Shelf account.
Every page is stripped to just the words. No ads, no clutter, no cookie banners. Reading the way it should be.
Link your Google account once. Shelf gets access only to files it creates — nothing else.
Paste any link into Shelf. We fetch the article, clean it up with Readability, and store it as a JSON file in your Drive.
Open Shelf on web or mobile. Your library is always in sync — sourced live from your Drive.
Start building your reading list today. Free, forever — you supply the storage.
