🧠 CONTEXTCLIP — NEVER LOSE RESEARCH CONTEXT AGAIN You've been there. 15 open tabs. Copy-pasting quotes into a Google Doc. Three hours later — you can't remember why half of it mattered. ContextClip fixes that. As you browse, simply highlight any text. ContextClip saves the quote, the source URL, and an AI-generated one-sentence explanation of why it's relevant to YOUR specific research topic. Not just what it says — why it matters. When you're done, export a clean, structured research brief in one click. No more copy-paste chaos. No more lost context. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ✨ KEY FEATURES ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 📌 SMART HIGHLIGHT SAVING Highlight any text on any webpage and a floating "Save to ContextClip" button instantly appears. One click saves: • The exact quote • The source URL + page title • A timestamp • An AI summary of relevance to your research topic 🤖 AI-POWERED RELEVANCE SUMMARIES Every clip gets a one-sentence AI summary explaining why this specific piece of information matters to your current research — not a generic summary of the page, but a relevance explanation tailored to YOUR topic. Powered by Claude AI (Anthropic). Bring your own API key — your data never passes through our servers. 🗂️ RESEARCH SESSIONS Organize research by topic. Start a session ("Comparing CRM tools for startups"), clip freely across 20 tabs, then close it when done. All clips stay organized under that session forever. Multiple sessions supported — switch between projects without losing anything. 🧩 AI CLIP CLUSTERING After saving 5+ clips, hit "Cluster My Clips" and watch Claude automatically group your research into meaningful themes: • "Pricing & Market Data" • "Technical Limitations" • "Competitor Positioning" No manual tagging. No folder organizing. Pure AI organization. 📊 SOURCE HEATMAP See which sources you actually read deeply vs. just skimmed: • Time spent per domain • Scroll depth reached • Number of clips saved per site Know at a glance which sources deserve more attention. 📄 THREE EXPORT FORMATS When your research is done, export as: 1. Structured Markdown — Clean brief with quotes grouped by source, ready for Notion, Obsidian, or any notes app 2. Raw JSON — Full data export for developers or custom workflows 3. AI Narrative Brief — Claude writes a 3-5 paragraph analyst-style summary of everything you researched. Reads like a human wrote it. ✏️ CLIP ANNOTATIONS Add your own notes to any saved clip. Your thinking + the source quote + the AI summary — all in one card. Exported together. 🎯 RELEVANCE SCORING Each clip is automatically scored 1–10 for relevance to your topic: 🟢 8-10 = Highly relevant 🟡 5-7 = Moderately relevant 🔴 1-4 = Tangentially relevant Filter your dashboard to show only the best clips when you're writing up. ⌨️ KEYBOARD SHORTCUTS • Cmd/Ctrl + Shift + S → Save current selection • Cmd/Ctrl + Shift + D → Open dashboard • Cmd/Ctrl + Shift + E → Export session • / (in dashboard) → Command palette ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 💼 WHO IS THIS FOR? ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ContextClip is built for people who do serious research: 📚 STUDENTS & ACADEMICS Writing a thesis or literature review across dozens of papers?

ContextClip saves the specific quote + why it matters to your current project. Context, not clutter. vs. POCKET / INSTAPAPER Those are read-later tools. ContextClip is a research memory tool — for active research sessions, not passive reading queues. vs. COPY-PASTING INTO A DOC No source tracking, no AI summaries, no organization, no export. ContextClip is what a Google Doc wishes it could be for research. vs. ROAM RESEARCH / OBSIDIAN Those are full note-taking systems with steep learning curves. ContextClip does one thing: captures research context while you browse, then gets out of your way. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🔒 PRIVACY & YOUR DATA ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Your research is private. Here's exactly how ContextClip handles data: ✅ All clips stored LOCALLY in your browser (chrome.storage.local) ✅ Your API key is stored locally and never sent to our servers ✅ AI summaries go directly from your browser → Anthropic API → your browser ✅ We have NO backend server. Zero. Nothing is stored externally. ✅ Uninstall the extension = all data deleted permanently ✅ You own your data completely — export it anytime as JSON The only external connection ContextClip makes is to the Anthropic API (api.anthropic.com) to generate AI summaries — using YOUR API key, billed to YOUR account. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ⚙️ SETUP (2 MINUTES) ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 1. Install ContextClip 2. Click the 🧠 icon in your toolbar 3. Get a free Anthropic API key at console.anthropic.com 4. Paste it into Settings (one time setup) 5. Start a research session with your topic 6. Browse normally — highlight text to save clips 7. Export when ready That's it. No account. No subscription. No onboarding flow. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ❓ FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Q: Does this work without an API key? A: Yes. Clips are saved without AI summaries. Add an API key anytime to unlock relevance scoring and AI narrative export. Q: How much does the Anthropic API cost? A: Very little. Summaries use Claude Haiku (cheapest model). 1,000 clips costs roughly $0.50–$1.00. Most users spend under $2/month at heavy usage. Q: Does it work on all websites? A: It works on almost all standard websites. Some exceptions: Chrome internal pages (chrome://), Chrome Web Store pages, and sites with strict Content Security Policies may block the floating toast. Q: Can I use it without an internet connection? A: Saving clips and viewing your dashboard works offline. AI summaries require an internet connection to reach the API. Q: How many clips can I save? A: Chrome's local storage allows roughly 5MB. At average clip size, that's 500–2,000 clips. The extension warns you when approaching the limit. Q: Can I export to Notion or Obsidian? A: The Markdown export is fully compatible with both. In Notion, use "Import → Markdown". In Obsidian, drop the .md file into your vault. Q: Is my data backed up? A: Currently stored locally only. Use JSON export regularly as a backup. Cloud sync is on the roadmap. Q: Does it slow down my browser? A: No. The content script only activates on text selection events. It does not run on scroll, page load, or in the background. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🗺️ ROADMAP ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Coming soon: • Chrome Sync — clips synced across your devices • Webpage highlights layer — see saved clips overlaid on pages • Obsidian direct vault sync • Team sessions — share research with collaborators • Citation formatter — auto-generate APA/MLA citations ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Made for researchers, by researchers.
