Small enough to live on your device.
Six things that make Kortlist different from every other comparison tool you've tried.
Local by default
Without an account, your boards stay on your device, in your browser. Sign in and they sync to the cloud across every browser you use.
Scores that count
Thumbs up and down on every cell. The board adds them up so the winner emerges from the data.
Pairwise PlayCompare
When the table can't decide, run a tournament. Pick a winner per matchup and let scores accumulate.
A whole board, in a link
Share any board as a single URL. Whoever opens it sees the same cells, with no account and no setup.
Installable, anywhere
Add Kortlist to your home screen on iOS, Android, macOS, Windows. It's a real PWA.
Sync across devices
Sign in and your edits travel between every browser you're signed in on — near-instant and automatic, free on every account.
Things people ask about Kortlist.
Short answers for the curious. If something's missing, it's probably on the roadmap.
What is a comparison board?
A comparison board is a side-by-side table for decisions: options become columns, the parameters that matter become rows, and you score each cell. Kortlist turns your browser into a free pros-and-cons list maker that runs without an account.
Do I need an account to use Kortlist?
Not for the core app — boards live in your browser, so you can build, score, and share without signing up. Signing in with Google syncs your boards across your devices and unlocks the optional URL Scan feature; sync is free on every signed-in account. We use privacy-focused, cookieless analytics; providers and any consented tracking are detailed in our Privacy Policy.
How do I share a board with someone?
Your whole board compresses into a URL. Drop the link into any chat, email, or doc; whoever opens it gets a fresh local copy on their device. No invites, no permissions, no sync.
Is Kortlist really free?
The core is free and we intend to keep the basics free: building boards, scoring, sharing, and PlayCompare. The optional URL Scan feature runs on a per-account allowance with a small monthly quota of complimentary scans; additional scans can be purchased as one-time packs that never expire. No ads, and we won't sell your board data.
What can I compare on Kortlist?
Anything with parameters worth weighing: apartments, job offers, cars, cameras, recipes, travel destinations, job candidates, subscription plans. If a spreadsheet would do it, Kortlist probably does it better.
Does Kortlist work without internet?
Yes. Install it once as a PWA and it keeps working without a connection on iOS, Android, macOS, Windows, and Linux — your boards stay available on a plane, in the metro, or in a tunnel. If you're signed in, your changes sync as soon as you're back online.
