Pocket

Pocket was a read‑it‑later service that let users save articles, videos and other web pages for offline access. Users could bookmark content while browsing and later view it at their convenience, without needing an internet connection. The platform also offered curated recommendations, originally built on machine‑learning algorithms and editorial oversight, to surface high‑quality stories.

The tool was aimed at readers who wanted a personal library of web content and at anyone looking for reliable suggestions of articles worth their time. Its integration with Firefox allowed the recommendations to appear directly in the browser’s new‑tab experience.

Pocket’s development was guided by Mozilla’s focus on high‑quality content curation, using a blend of automated ranking and human review. The service has been discontinued, with its recommendation technology now incorporated into Firefox’s built‑in reading and discovery features.
