QuickNotes

Stop losing what you read. You highlight a paragraph. You mean to save it. You forget. Two days later it's gone. QuickNotes fixes that. Highlight text on any webpage, press your custom keyboard shortcut, and it's saved to the right folder — while you keep reading. No copy-paste. No tab switching. No friction. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ HOW IT WORKS ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 1. Create a folder (e.g. "UPSC", "Research", "Read Later") and assign it a shortcut like Option + 1. 2. On any webpage, press that shortcut. A floating panel appears — you never leave the page. 3. Highlight any text with your mouse. It's added to your note automatically. 4. Press ⌘/Ctrl + Enter to start a fresh note, or Escape to finish. That's the entire workflow. Three seconds per capture. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ WHY QUICKNOTES IS DIFFERENT ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Most note tools are write-only. You save hundreds of highlights and never see them again. QuickNotes has a built-in spaced review system. Every day, a short queue of notes resurfaces — chosen by how old they are, whether you favorited them, and how often you've already reviewed them. Keep them, skip them, or archive them. Build a streak. Remember what you save. This is the difference between a filing cabinet and a second brain. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ KEY FEATURES ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ✓ Save highlighted text from any webpage instantly ✓ Custom keyboard shortcuts per folder ✓ Floating session panel — no tab switching ✓ Continue building the same note while you read ✓ ⌘/Ctrl + Enter starts a new note mid-session ✓ Parent–child note organization ✓ Full-text search across notes, titles, and sources ✓ Favorites for the notes worth returning to ✓ Daily review with streak tracking ✓ Export any folder to PDF ✓ Light and dark mode ✓ 100% local — no account, no cloud, no tracking ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ BUILT FOR PEOPLE WHO LEARN FROM THE WEB ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ → Students reading papers and textbooks online → UPSC / competitive exam aspirants collecting facts → Researchers tracking sources across dozens of tabs → Writers gathering quotes and references → Developers saving documentation snippets → Anyone who reads to learn, not to scroll ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ PRIVACY ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ QuickNotes stores everything locally on your device using Chrome's storage API.
