Save the web without breaking your flow.
ClipDesk turns Chrome into a disciplined capture workspace for articles, selections, notes, and PDFs. Keep a fast local library in the extension, then manage billing, support, and team-ready workflows from one clean web hub.
What ClipDesk gives you
A sharper workflow for reading, collecting, and keeping web knowledge usable.
ClipDesk is built for writers, students, operators, analysts, and teams who need structured saves instead of a pile of untraceable links.
Your core library lives where you work: inside the extension. The web app handles identity, billing, support, and shared workflows without turning the product into a black box.
Export clips with metadata, notes, tags, timestamps, and source URLs so your archive is portable from day one.
Capture pages, excerpts, and PDFs
Save the page you are reading without leaving your tab. Keep whole articles, highlighted selections, metadata, notes, and import-ready PDFs together.
Review before you keep
Use the side panel to clean up titles, add tags, and leave context while the source page is still in front of you.
Export or sync on your terms
Send polished Markdown into your notes workflow, keep a local library, or unlock cloud and team workflows when you are ready.
Built for people who revisit what they save
ClipDesk is strongest when the clip matters later, not just when the save button is clicked.
Keep titles, URLs, notes, and timestamps attached to every save.
Use tags, notes, and exports to turn captures into an actual archive.
Start solo, then add seats when your research process grows beyond one browser.
The website handles account, billing, and support while the extension stays quick and focused.
Where ClipDesk fits best
Strongest for work that starts in the browser and needs to stay searchable, portable, and actionable.
Build a reading queue for long-form research without losing citations.
Create a clean source archive for writing, strategy, and product discovery.
Share a common capture workflow across a small research or content team.
Save direct PDF text when a browser tab is not enough.
Privacy stays legible
ClipDesk keeps the core capture loop local-first and uses the web app for the account surfaces that belong on the web.
Local clips remain inside the extension until you choose to sync or export them.
Billing flows are routed through Stripe and backend APIs instead of exposing secret logic in the browser.
Support and account management live in a signed-in dashboard built to be practical, not noisy.
The biggest upgrade to ClipDesk yet is on the way.
ClipDesk 2.0 turns the fast local clipper into a complete research sidekick — capture anything, cite it perfectly, and send it wherever you write. These features are in active build and roll out with the 2.0 release. The free local-first core stays free.
One-click, citation-preserving export to Obsidian, Notion, Google Docs, Logseq, Roam, Anki, Readwise, and a NotebookLM-ready bundle.
Auto-detect sources, then generate flawless APA, MLA, Chicago, Harvard, IEEE, and Vancouver citations and one-click bibliographies.
Durable color-coded highlights that survive page changes and become cited clips, with personal comments on everything you save.
Turn lectures, meetings, and YouTube into timestamped, searchable transcript clips with summaries — citations link back to the exact timecode.
Assemble selected clips into a citation-anchored outline or draft, and ask questions answered only from your own saved research.
Structured tags, project dashboards, saved-search tracking, and spaced resurfacing that turns your archive into active learning.
Planned for the 2.0 release and subject to change. Nothing here is charged for or available until it ships.
