vs FetchMark

## FetchMark keeps a permanent copy. ZeroMark keeps a short list.

FetchMark is aimed at people leaving Pocket: import the export, keep a permanent copy, summarize, and write Markdown. Their alternative page has said the app is free during an open beta. Pocket's export is articles. X bookmarks were never in it. ZeroMark is not a Pocket importer. A full Pocket HTML import is not the v1 path.

Pick FetchMark if you have a Pocket file and you want those articles kept. Pick ZeroMark if the unread pile is X bookmarks. They are adjacent only because both get mentioned after Pocket. They do not read the same library.

We make ZeroMark. Every fact about FetchMark below comes from their own site, checked 17 October 2026, and linked in Sources. If we have a fact wrong, tell us and we will correct it.

### What FetchMark does better

- A real Pocket import, which we do not have.

- Permanent copies and Markdown export of those articles.

### Where ZeroMark is different

- A summary on every save before you see it, including the quoted post a reaction is about, plus why you kept it.

- One decision per save: done, let go, or snooze for a week. Undo walks the sitting back. The open queue ends on a Zero card.

- Order comes from your own finish rate: what you mark done against what you let go.

- Keeps can leave for Notion, Obsidian, or a file. Stopping payment does not delete what is already read.

- The X connection is read-only. Triage stays inside ZeroMark. Nothing is posted, liked, followed, or removed on X.

### Where ZeroMark falls short

- Not a Pocket importer.

- Not an archive of saved web articles.

### Pricing, side by side

FetchMark: Described as free during open beta. A pricing page we tried did not render a paid number, so none is printed here. ZeroMark: Free for your latest 50 saves, no card and no clock. $4.99 a month or $39 a year reads the library your connection returns. A 30-day refund covers the first paid charge. Card payments go through Stripe. Prices change. Check both before you pay.

### Switching, or using both

- If you still have a Pocket export, FetchMark is the tool that says it will take it.

- Your X bookmarks are not in that file. Connect them here if you want them read and cleared.

- ZeroMark will not move a Pocket HTML library in v1.

### Who should pick which

Article refugees and X backlogs landed in the same week of headlines. They are different piles.
