Frequently asked questions
What is Start.me?
Start.me is a visual start page and bookmark manager. It brings websites, tools, RSS feeds, notes, and widgets together in one place that you can open as your browser homepage, new tab page, or shared resource page.
Start.me runs in the cloud, so your pages stay in sync across browsers and devices, not just inside one browser extension.
Start.me has been online since 2014 and is trusted by more than 400,000 people and teams worldwide. We are built in The Netherlands.
Why should I use Start.me?
Most people open the same websites, tools, and resources every day. Teams manage even more, with shared docs, dashboards, and reference links scattered across bookmarks, tabs, messages, and memory.
Bookmarks save a link, but they hide in a menu and stay tied to one browser. Default new tab pages give you a search box and a few shortcuts, not the full set of sites you rely on. You end up searching again, retyping URLs, or reopening the same tabs.
Start.me is built for the links you actually use. Save any page in one click with our browser extension or bookmarklet. Organize them with groups, folders, and flexible layouts, from compact lists to visual tiles. Optional AI can tidy titles and collections; broken and duplicate link detection keeps your pages useful over time.
You also get a visual start page for daily use, whether as your homepage or new tab, with everything important in one place. Create pages for work, hobbies, or a team. They stay in sync across browsers and devices, with widgets and notes, not just links.
Who uses Start.me?
Start.me is used by more than 400,000 people and teams worldwide. Here are some of the most common ways people use it.
- Personal use. Many individuals use Start.me as their browser homepage, new tab page, or personal resource center. They keep daily tools, news feeds, and favorite links in one clear overview instead of digging through browser menus. See our features page for what you can add.
- Curators. Curators and community builders create collections around topics, hobbies, or workflows and share them publicly. You can explore examples on our community pages.
- Small businesses and enterprises. Shared start pages bring tools, documents, dashboards, and links together so employees spend less time searching and more time working. Learn more on our Teams page.
- Educators. Teachers and schools organize lesson links, study tools, and library resources on pages students can open in one click. See our education page for examples.
- Researchers and OSINT. Researchers, journalists, and OSINT professionals organize sources, search tools, maps, and reference links for investigations and due diligence work. See our OSINT page for research-focused examples.
Anyone who relies on the same websites and tools every day can benefit. Create a private page for yourself, or build shared pages for a team, class, client, or community.

Is my data safe?
Yes. Your bookmarks, notes, widgets, and page content belong to you. Start.me is built to keep them private and secure.
- You own your content. Your pages, links, and uploaded files stay yours. We do not claim ownership over what you create or save on Start.me.
- We protect it. Your data is encrypted in transit and at rest. All connections use secure HTTPS, and we collect only what we need to provide the service.
- We do not sell your data. Start.me does not sell or share your personal data or browsing history. We earn revenue from subscriptions and ads on free pages, not from selling user data.
- You stay in control. Export your data, delete your account at any time, and exercise your GDPR rights, including access, correction, and erasure.
Read our Privacy Policy for full details on what we collect, cookies, AI features, data retention, and your rights.
Does Start.me use AI?
Yes. Start.me includes optional AI features that can suggest links, clean up bookmark titles, improve notes, and help organize collections faster.
- They are optional. AI features only run when you choose to use them. Nothing is sent to an AI provider automatically.
- You stay in control. You decide what to send, review suggestions before anything is added to your pages, and can ignore or edit every result.
- They are safe to use. We send only the content needed for the feature you use, such as a bookmark title or note text. We never send your email address, password, or other account credentials.
- Your data is protected. Data sent to AI features is not used to train AI models.
Read our Privacy Policy for full details on AI features and data handling.
Does it work in all browsers?
Yes. Start.me runs in the cloud, so your start pages work anywhere you have a browser and an internet connection. It works in Chrome, Firefox, Edge, Safari, Opera, and other modern browsers.
- All your devices. Use the same start page on desktop, laptop, tablet, and mobile. Your pages stay in sync because Start.me runs in the cloud.
- All your browsers. Use Chrome at work, Safari on your phone, or Firefox at home and still access the same pages.
- Extensions and apps are optional. Browser extensions and mobile apps make it easy to set Start.me as your homepage or new tab, but you can also use Start.me directly in your browser.
Why should I install the browser extension?
Our browser extensions and bookmarklet connect Start.me to the way you already browse the web. They are free to use.
- Save while you browse. Save any webpage to Start.me in one click without leaving the site you are on. Use the browser extension or bookmarklet from your toolbar or bookmarks bar.
- Make Start.me your new tab. Open your start page every time you open a new tab, so your most important links are always right in front of you.
- Import bookmarks. Bring in bookmarks from your browser or an HTML file to get started quickly.
- Save open tabs. Save a batch of open tabs to Start.me in one go instead of bookmarking them one by one.
Visit our Downloads page to install extensions for Chrome, Firefox, Edge, Safari, and other browsers.
How do I share pages with a team or class?
By default, your Start.me pages are private. Only you can access them until you choose to share.
- Share by link. Turn on link sharing when you want others to view a page without an account. Choose an Open Link for anyone with the URL, a Protected Link for link plus password, or a Public Link to share it publicly and make it discoverable on search engines.
- Invite people. Invite colleagues, students, or clients directly and give them editor or viewer access. Editors can help update the page. Viewers can open it but not make changes.
- Share in Teams. Move pages into a Team workspace to share them securely with your organization. Teams are popular for onboarding, classroom resources, intranet-style pages, and shared tool collections.
You decide what stays private and what gets shared.
How does the Team plan work?
The Team plan gives your organization a secure workspace on Start.me where members can access shared start pages together.
- Team workspace and members. Create a Team workspace and invite colleagues, staff, or students as members. Share start pages inside the workspace so everyone sees the same tools, links, and resources in one place.
- Secure sharing. Team pages stay inside your workspace. Control who can view, edit, or manage pages with role-based access.
- Custom subdomain. Get your own team URL like myteam.start.me for easy access, simpler sharing, and branding with your logo and colors.
- SSO and SAML2 login. Connect Okta, Azure AD, or another SAML2 provider so members sign in with their existing work accounts. No extra passwords to remember.
