Frequently Asked Questions

Sortula is a service for saving links, texts and posts; the model writes a summary, assigns tags and a category, estimates shelf life and pulls out an action list. Who it is for: people who save a lot and cannot find it later. Developers, researchers, writers, marketers — anyone with more bookmarks than time. What sets it apart: scheduled relevance checks and search by meaning across the whole library.

A regular bookmark manager stores the link. Sortula reads it: writes a summary, assigns tags and a category, estimates when the material will go stale and pulls out the steps. Afterwards a bookmark can be found by meaning, not only by words from its title, and outdated ones show up in the Relevance section.

Almost anything useful: Articles and blog posts — automatic summarization and categorization Social media posts — forward directly from Telegram Images — saved (content recognition — in development) Text notes and quotes — your own thoughts YouTube videos — in development PDF documents — in development Just send anything to @SortulaManagerBot — AI automatically detects the type and processes it.

Yes: Annual PRO is 2490 ₽ for 12 months, i.e. 208 ₽ a month instead of 299 ₽. Three months cost 799 ₽ (266 ₽ a month).

Available on the PRO plan. How it works: 1. When you save, the model determines the content type and its shelf life: • Evergreen (classics, recipes) — rechecked yearly • Technical (guides, documentation) — quarterly • News — monthly 2. On schedule, Sortula rereads the material and decides whether it is outdated. 3. If it is, you see a warning on the bookmark and in the Relevance section. Example: a five-year-old router setup guide gets an “outdated” mark with a note on what changed.

Many articles contain useful tips scattered throughout the text. Sortula extracts key ideas into a convenient format. Example: article «10 Ways to Boost Productivity» (3000 words) → main points: • Evening planning for the next day • Pomodoro technique for focus • Minimizing distractions • Prioritizing difficult tasks Each idea — a specific tip you can apply immediately. Other services don't extract key ideas — the article just sits there unread.

Long article → short summary in seconds. How it works: Send a link → AI loads and analyzes text Neural network highlights key points and facts Creates brief summary (100-200 words) Result — in 3-5 seconds A 5000-word article (15 min read) → 150-word summary (30 seconds). Time savings: 30x faster. Popular sources (Habr, VC, Medium) are cached — repeat summarization is instant.

Regular search looks for exact words. Smart search understands meaning. Example: you search «how to learn English». Regular search: only finds articles with words «learn English». Sortula smart search: also finds: • «foreign language learning methods» • «best apps for English» • «how I learned a language in a year» This works thanks to vector embeddings — AI converts text into mathematical vectors and searches for similar meanings, not letters.

Sortula picks the models for each task itself; nothing to configure. FREE — analysis of your first 20 bookmarks ever: summary, tags, categories; semantic search without limits. PRO — 500 analyses a month and scheduled relevance checks. We switch models based on measurements on our own bookmarks.

AI automatically analyzes content and assigns relevant tags and categories. Auto-tags: • AI reads the article and identifies key topics • Creates tags based on content (topics, concepts, tools) • You can edit or disable auto-tags Smart categories: • AI determines content type (tutorial, news, recipe, research) • Automatically organizes into categories in your library • Learns from your manual corrections — becomes more accurate over time Example: saved an investing article — AI adds tags «Finance», «Investing», «Personal Budget» and places it in «Finance» category.
