# How to save articles with an AI article saver

To save an article, use a [bookmark manager](https://www.knowman.io/guides/best-bookmark-manager) or [read-it-later tool](https://www.knowman.io/guides/best-read-it-later-app), then search saved content or ask questions if the tool supports it. KnowMan saves articles and links, answers questions with citations, and includes [search by meaning](https://www.knowman.io/guides/ai-knowledge-base) on Pro.

## Choose what you need to save

Some services offer more ways to find saved content. [Raindrop](https://www.knowman.io/vs/raindrop).io says saved pages, PDFs, and YouTube videos are fully searchable, and offers an [AI Assistant](https://www.knowman.io/guides/give-your-ai-context). [Raindrop.io](https://raindrop.io/)
