A little help for finding and keeping the good stuff.

A Tack is something you find and want to keep. Public Tacks can appear in Discover and always keep a meaningful link to their original source.

Discover is the public place to browse and search Tacks. There are no motion Tacks, and Tackologie is currently ad-free.

Sign in, choose Add Tack, and paste the original public page—not a bare image link. Choose one eligible still image, add a title or a little context if helpful, and save it.

A public Tack needs a usable still image and a working public source link. Titles and descriptions make a Tack easier to understand, but they are encouraged enrichment rather than a universal requirement.

When you use Tack it, that public tack is added to your Saved tacks. Your saved collection is tied to your signed-in account, so it is there when you return.

A Tack is one thing you discover or save. When you Tack a public discovery, it is saved in Saved Tacks and Tackologie immediately asks where you want to organize it.

A Stack is a collection of Tacks around an idea, project, interest, or plan. Choose one or more existing Stacks, or create a new Stack in the same picker. Closing the picker keeps the Tack in Saved Tacks, and you can reopen it from the Tack later to add or remove Stack placements.

No. Untacking removes it from your Saved tacks and also clears it from your Stacks. Removing it from one Stack only removes that one placement—it stays saved and can remain in other Stacks.

Neither action deletes the public tack for other people. Deleting a Stack likewise removes only your Stack and its placements, not the original tacks.

Some websites — particularly social platforms such as TikTok and Instagram — limit what other services can access from their pages.

You may be able to see a post perfectly well in your browser or app while Tackologie can't reliably access the image and source information it needs to make a proper Tack.

When that happens, we won't try to work around the site's restrictions or create a half-working Tack.

If we can't make a Tack that keeps its image, context and meaningful link back to the source, we'd rather tell you we can't Tack it.

No.

The important thing isn't which website something comes from. It's whether Tackologie can access enough public information to create a useful, source-connected Tack.

If a supported page gives us what we need, it may be Tackable. If it doesn't, we'll let you know.

Tackologie is a still-image discovery experience. A video page may be Tackable when a usable static image and meaningful source context are available.

Tackologie does not autoplay or embed video in public Tacks. When a video page can be Tacked, its Tack uses a static image for discovery and keeps the link to the original page.

Some social and video platforms limit what Tackologie can reliably access. We do not bypass those restrictions or create broken, orphaned public Tacks.

Because we've all had the experience of finding the perfect image online and then discovering that it leads nowhere useful.

We're trying to build something better.

A public Tack should help you answer:

What is this? Where did it come from? And where can I go to learn more, make it, buy it, read it or see the original?

If we can't preserve that trail, it doesn't belong in public discovery.

Use a public page from the maker, publisher, shop, or creator that tells people what the image is about. Tackologie needs one clear JPEG, PNG, or WebP still from that page.

Every accepted Tack keeps a link back to its source.

A Tack needs the page where an image is explained—not the image, file, animation, or media link by itself.

Paste the original page from the maker, publisher, shop, or creator instead.

If a link loops through redirects or points somewhere Tackologie cannot safely follow, open the final original page and paste that address instead.

If a page was deleted or moved, find the original page from the publisher, maker, shop, or creator before trying again.

Some sites limit automated source reading even when you can see the page in your own browser. Tackologie does not bypass logins, paywalls, CAPTCHAs, robots rules, or access controls. That is a source-access limit, not a content rejection.

When that happens, open the public page in your browser and use the Tackologie browser extension to capture the visible still and source relationship for review.

The Tackologie browser extension lets you create a Tack while viewing a public webpage.

It is especially useful when a site limits automated source reading. Use the extension to choose a visible still, review the source information, and organize it into a Stack. Tackologie still checks the eligible image, source link, moderation, and duplicates before a public Tack appears.

Once the Chrome and Edge store listings are approved, this section should contain normal install buttons or links to those official listings.

Tacks stay still. A page needs one clear JPEG, PNG, or WebP image to become a Tack. Animated media and direct video files are not Tacks.

A Tack image should show the thing you are actually saving, not the website that happens to host it.

Tackologie does not allow website logos, brand marks, favicons, or generic site-identification graphics to be used as Tack images. Choose an image of the actual product, artwork, project, recipe, place, or other page content instead.

For an accepted Tack, Tackologie keeps a durable copy of the approved still image while preserving the original source link. If the original image later changes or disappears, the saved Tack image can still remain available.

Visit source always opens the original source URL. If that website later redirects, changes, or disappears, the destination or availability is up to that site.

New individual accounts receive 25 lifetime free Tack saves with no credit card or time limit. The 25th successful save is included. Failed saves, repeat requests, and adding an already-saved Tack to another Stack do not use extra saves.

Once the lifetime allowance is used, membership is required to explore Discover, search for new Tacks, view unsaved Tacks through direct links or other people’s shared Stacks, or save more. Your saved Tacks, their source links, and your own Stacks remain accessible. Deleting never refunds a save or reopens discovery. Existing-member, complimentary Source, and owner/admin exemptions are preserved, and former paid collections are never truncated to 25.

Full discovery will require a qualifying signed-in account; signing out will not bypass the rule. Marketing and limited Homepage Picks previews stay public. Account, membership, Help and privacy controls remain accessible.

Membership prices are plus applicable tax. Checkout shows your final total before payment.

Members joining before October 1, 2027 at midnight Eastern qualify for $12/year and keep that rate while membership remains continuous. New members from that date, and anyone returning after their membership ends, pay $18/year.

Your Founding Member badge appears at the top of every page while you are signed in and beside your Account membership details. Scheduling cancellation keeps the badge through your paid period; it disappears when founding access ends.

Manage membership in Account to update payment methods, view invoices, or cancel through Stripe. Cancellation stops the next renewal; access continues through the paid period. Your Saved tacks and Stacks are retained when membership ends.

The owner can separately allow automatic Discover publication for selected active sources. It starts paused. New candidates must have source-grounded copy, a corresponding still image, policy screening, valid categories, and no prior decision or source conflict. Uncertain cases stay in manual review. Automated checks can make mistakes; use Report on a Tack if something seems wrong. Automatic publication does not select Homepage Picks. Owners and admins can open Admin → Editorial → Automation activity to see recorded publications, holds, technical failures, and separate retrieval summaries. Trusted Sources contains owner/admin global and per-source automatic-publication controls and bounded rolling limits. Paused sources offer Check now: up to three pages can be tested once without Resume, activation or publication. Passing candidates remain for manual approval. Every automatically evaluated stored image is visually checked for text, including watermarks, labels and photographed lettering; text, uncertain detection or detection failure requires manual review. Visual models can miss details, so this is not perfect detection. The activity report uses UTC timestamps, offers removal of Discover placement without deleting saved content, and does not imply that an empty history means no earlier run occurred.

Search looks for direct matches and useful related concepts across a Tack’s public title, description, topic, source details, and available image text. That helps a search such as “art” find an illustration even if the exact word is not the headline.

Discover shows public static-image Tacks with a working link back to their source. A page that lacks a defensible source/image relationship or an eligible still does not become public, so it will not appear in Discover or public search.

Trending is shown in a transparent beta order: recent additions first, then the published sample order.

Visit source opens the source link connected to that Tack. Follow what catches your eye. The source website may change, move, or disappear later.

Helpful titles and descriptions are encouraged, but the promise is a source link.

Currently ad-free. If we introduce advertising after year one, it will never exceed 2%. No misleading advertising. No big corporate advertising.

Ads will open within Tackologie first. Then you decide whether to visit the source or Tack it for later. You’re in control.

We’re committed to catching AI slop before it reaches your discovery feed, as best we can. Editorial review and community reports support that commitment; detection is not perfect.

If something slips through, choose Report Tack and Suspected AI slop. A signed-in, verified account can submit a report for admin review. We’ll review it and remove content that violates the promise.

Tackologie does not publish adult or sexual content, violent content, political content, or real-world occult practice or promotion. Fantasy, folklore, mythology, fictional magic, and lighthearted seasonal supernatural imagery can be allowed when otherwise safe.

Read the full Content Guidelines for the details.

Sometimes moderation can make a mistake. If Tackologie declines a Tack, the signed-in creator can use the Appeal this decision action shown with that exact decision. An appeal does not publish or save the Tack.

You can add an optional explanation. We’ll review one pending appeal for that attempt and email a decision within 48 hours, so you do not need to Tack the item again.

Make space for who you are today. Archive Tacks & Stacks you don't want to see right now. You can visit them in your archive later.

Archive Tack hides your saved copy from Saved and all active Stacks while retaining its original placements. Archive Stack hides only that Stack from normal lists, save pickers and its public link; its Tacks stay visible in other active Stacks.

Open Archive from your collection to browse, search, visit sources and restore. Restoring a Tack does not restore an archived Stack. Restoring a Stack brings back its previous visibility, but individually archived Tacks remain archived. Archive and restore do not consume or refund free saves, and remain available after membership ends.

Sign in to save tacks and organize them into Stacks. Your Saved tacks belong to your account; signing out does not delete them.

Use Sign Out in the site menu when you are finished.

On the sign-in page, choose Forgot password? and enter the email address you use for Tackologie. If an account exists, Tackologie sends reset instructions to that address.
