Save webpages and highlight content with the browser extension

Save any page to Keep with one click or a keyboard shortcut, and highlight what's worth remembering. Free accounts save the link, title, and site metadata right away. Paid plans also keep the full page content as markdown when it is available. Highlights are free for everyone.

Setup

  1. Install the extension for your browser.
  2. Click the # icon in your toolbar.
  3. Click Connect to Keep and sign in.

Saving tabs

Click Keep current tab to save the active page, or Keep all tabs to save every open tab at once. If a tab is already saved, it shows an "already kept" status instead.

Keyboard shortcuts

cmd+shift+k / ctrl+shift+k -- save current tab

cmd+shift+l / ctrl+shift+l -- save all tabs

Right-click menu

Right-click any link and select Keep this link to save it without navigating there first.

Right-click any selected text and choose Highlight in Keep to save it as a highlight. If the article is not yet in your library, Keep will save it and attach the highlight in one step.

Highlight content

Select text on any webpage and open the Keep popup. The button changes based on what is selected and whether the article is already saved:

  • Save to Keep -- nothing selected, article not saved yet.
  • Save article + highlight -- text selected, article not saved yet. One click saves the article and stores the selection as the first highlight.
  • Add highlight -- text selected, article already saved. Adds the selection to the article's existing highlights.
  • Already kept -- nothing selected, article already saved.

When text is selected, the popup shows a preview of the selection and an optional note field. Notes are useful for capturing why it matters to you. You can skip the highlight at any time and just save the article.

Highlights show up inline in the reader so you can find them again later. You can also highlight directly inside the reader without going back to the original page. See the reading view docs for how they render, how to edit or delete them, and how to use highlight mode while reading.

Automatic capture

Browser bookmarks created with cmd+d / ctrl+d are automatically synced to Keep in the background.

When you bookmark a tweet on x.com, the extension captures the tweet text, author, and URL as markdown. A toast notification confirms each save.

Content extraction

When a page is saved, Keep always stores the URL, title, and metadata it can find. On paid plans, Keep also tries to keep the page content as clean markdown. It tries native markdown first, then falls back to readability parsing, then raw content.

Disconnecting

Open the popup, click settings, then disconnect. You can reconnect at any time.
