NetMem — Personal Memory for the Web

Save a passage from any webpage with your own thought, and see it again when you return. Stored only in your browser.

Ever read something brilliant online, then couldn't find it again a week later? NetMem lets you save any passage from any website together with your own thought about it. When you come back to that page, NetMem shows you what you saved and what you were thinking. Highlight → press Alt+A → add your note → done. Two seconds, and it's yours. ★ SAVE WHAT MATTERS, IN YOUR OWN WORDS • Select text on any page and press Alt+A (or click the NetMem button) • Add your thought: why it matters, what to do with it, what you disagree with • Save several passages from the same page into one memory • Attach links, images and voice notes • No text selected? Write a quick note about the page instead • Works on articles, docs, blogs, forums and AI chat pages like ChatGPT ★ SEE IT AGAIN WHEN YOU RETURN • Revisit a page and NetMem points out the passages you saved, with your note beside them • One click jumps straight to the exact passage on the page • NetMem tells you honestly when a page has changed and a passage can't be found, so it never guesses • Related memories from other pages appear right when they're useful ★ TURN READING INTO ACTION • After saving, choose: Remember, Revisit later, or Take action • Set reminders: in 1 hour, tomorrow, next week, or any time you pick • Create to-dos with checklists and due dates, linked to the passage that inspired them • A "Today" view shows what's due, overdue and coming up ★ FIND ANYTHING IN SECONDS • Search everything you've saved: passages, notes, titles, tags and websites • Finds similar words and forgives typos ("recipie" still finds "recipe") • See why each result matched, with your words highlighted • Save searches you use often ★ ORGANISE YOUR WAY, OR DON'T • Folders and subfolders, tags, collections, colours and pins • Or skip all that: everything is searchable anyway • Select many memories at once to move, tag or share them • Undo for every change, plus a 30-day "Recently deleted" safety net ★ SHARE A PASSAGE, NOT JUST A LINK • Send a passage with your note by email, WhatsApp or copy-paste • Passage links open the page and highlight the exact text • Preview exactly what will be sent first; nothing is shared without you ★ PRIVATE BY DESIGN • Everything is stored only in your browser, on your device • No account, no sign-up, no cloud, no tracking, no ads • NetMem never sends your memories anywhere • Reminder notifications hide your content by default • Back up everything to a file at any time and restore it whenever you like PERFECT FOR • Students collecting quotes and sources for essays • Researchers and writers building a library of ideas • Professionals saving key points from docs, articles and reports • Lifelong learners who want to remember what they read • Anyone who has ever said "I read this somewhere…" GOOD TO KNOW • Chrome doesn't let extensions run on its own pages, the Chrome Web Store or the built-in PDF viewer. On those you can still write a note about the page. • Because your data stays on your device, it isn't synced between computers. Use Backup to move it. • NetMem needs permission to read pages so it can save your selection and recognise passages when you return. All of this happens on your device. Get started: install NetMem, select any sentence on this page, and press Alt+A.
