Why TEAL

Built for keeping, not for harvesting.

Private by default

Your data stays yours

Runs on your machine, in your Postgres. No third party sees what you read or watch, the only thing TEAL phones is the metadata API you ask it to.

Import everything

Bring your history with you

Goodreads, IMDb, MyAnimeList exports drop straight in. Search TMDB, OpenLibrary, IGDB, Discogs, ComicVine, BGG and setlist.fm to fill the rest.

One place

Eight libraries, no tab-juggling

Stop spreading your taste across a dozen apps. Books, screens, games and music live under one roof with consistent search, filters and ratings.

No tracking

No accounts you don't control

No analytics, no ad SDKs, no telemetry. It's a single Laravel app you own, fork it, theme it, host it on a Raspberry Pi if you like.

Why it's built this way

Human-made & copyleft.

TEAL is hand-built by someone who actually uses it, and it's AGPL-3.0, copyleft, so it stays free: run it, fork it, improve it, share your changes back. A small tool made to be kept, not monetised.

Self-host in minutes

Clone, set keys, up.

A single Docker stack, app, Postgres, queue. No Redis, no fuss. Point a domain at it and you're done.

TEAL is a real tool I use every day and keep sharpening in the open, free to download, free to fork. If it earns a spot on your server, that's the whole reward.
