No MagicInk account required
The extension is designed to work without creating a separate user account.
Privacy
Your notes should feel private.
MagicInk is being built as a local-first browser extension rather than a service that requires you to send your notes to an online account.
No membership
MagicInk is intended to remain free to use without paid feature tiers.
Local extension storage
Your highlights and notes are stored through browser extension storage in the current build.
MagicInk needs access to webpage text on pages where it runs so it can detect selections, restore saved highlights, and locate passages again. The current design does not require a MagicInk server to store your personal note text.
