About:
Hookmark is a powerful linking tool that allows users to create and manage connections between various files, web pages, and applications. It enables quick retrieval of related information through a unified interface, acting as a central hub for your digital knowledge base. The tool enhances productivity by eliminating the need to remember where information is stored.
Key Features:
  • Universal linking system for files, URLs, and app references
  • Quick search and retrieval interface
  • Integration with macOS services and clipboard
  • Customizable link metadata and tagging
  • Command-line interface for automation
Use Cases:

  • Creating a personal knowledge base with cross-references between different information sources
Alternatives:
  • DEVONthink – More comprehensive knowledge management but heavier and more expensive
  • Obsidian – Markdown-based with local storage, better for text-heavy workflows
  • Alfred (with workflows) – More general launcher, requires custom setup for similar linking features
