Highlight what matters
Select text on a webpage and mark it in a color that makes sense to you.
✦ Coming soon to the Chrome Web Store
Write between the lines of the web.
MagicInk turns any webpage into a place you can remember. Highlight the part that matters, attach your own thought, and return to it later without losing the context.

Ideas are easier to remember in context.
You're reading something useful, and then you find the exact sentence you want to remember.
MagicInk noteThis is the part I need later.
Not another separate notes app.
MagicInk keeps your note attached to the thing that made you write it in the first place.
⌨️
Alt + highlight
Hold Alt while selecting text to jump straight into writing a note.
📝
Write on top of the web
Your comment stays tied to the exact passage instead of floating in an unrelated notebook.
🔢
Know when a page has notes
A red badge means none. A green badge shows how many notes you already saved on the page.
↩️
Jump back later
Open a saved note and MagicInk can take you back to the source page and the highlighted passage.
🔒
Local-first by design
No required membership or MagicInk account just to save your own thoughts.
Hold Alt. Highlight. Write.
Skip extra clicks when you already know you want to leave yourself a note.
ALT+Select text→Note opens
Not every highlight means the same thing.
Use color to separate things you agree with, want to revisit, need to research, or simply don't want to lose.
