About ZetaMarker - PDF & Web Highlighter

Highlight web pages and PDFs, add notes, and build a searchable research library. Start locally with no account required, then sync across devices when you're ready. PERFECT FOR • Researchers • Students • Developers • Knowledge workers • Anyone who reads extensively online 🔒 PRIVACY-FIRST — YOU CHOOSE WHERE IT RUNS Many highlighter extensions ask for broad permission to "read and change all your data on all websites." ZetaMarker doesn't. ZetaMarker uses a limited-permission approach: it only runs on pages where you turn it on — with a click on the extension icon or a keyboard shortcut. It does not watch every tab you open, and it does not annotate sites you haven't activated. That means banking, email, healthcare portals, and work apps stay private by default. You invite ZetaMarker in only when you're ready to read and annotate. ✅ No account required to start ✅ Highlights save locally in your browser first ✅ Cloud sync is optional — sign in only when you want it ✅ We don't sell your data Learn more: https://zetamarker.com/docs/privacy-and-control WHY ZETAMARKER IS DIFFERENT 🔒 Privacy-first — page-by-page activation, not blanket site access ✅ No account required — start highlighting immediately after install 📄 Web pages & PDFs — one consistent workflow for articles and documents ☁️ Cloud sync — pick up on another browser or device when you're ready 🔍 Search everything — find any highlight, note, or page in your library 📤 Export your highlights — PDF, Markdown, HTML, or plain text HOW IT WORKS 1. Activate ZetaMarker on any web page or online PDF 2. Select text, pick a color, and add a comment 3. Review highlights in the sidebar — sort, jump to any highlight, copy notes 4.
