Problem

Valuable content appears constantly while browsing—articles, threads, AI answers—but saving to Notion is friction-heavy, so knowledge scatters across tabs and memory.

Product thinking

Treat the browser as a capture surface for a personal knowledge base, not a bookmark dump.

User pain

  • "I'll save this later" → never reviewed
  • Copy-paste into Notion breaks formatting and context
  • AI chat transcripts are hard to archive with source links

Design decisions

  • One-click highlight → Notion with sensible defaults
  • Save full pages, selections, AI chats, and comments
  • Keyboard shortcuts + context menu; bilingual UI
  • Privacy-first: developer declares no data collection

Technical architecture

Chrome Extension MV3 with Notion API integration, local history, and auto-categorization rules.

Learnings

Capture tools win on speed and trust. Users need to believe saves are private, structured, and retrievable.

Outcome

Published on Chrome Web Store (v1.15.8) with 5.0 rating among early users. Complements my builder workflow: browse → capture → ship.
