WebPad Studio – Notes, Notepad & Whiteboard in Side Panel

Notes & notepad in Chrome’s side panel: take notes, snip web pages, draw on a whiteboard. Free, no account, notes stay local.

Your notebook for the web — in Chrome's side panel, in a full tab, and on your phone. WebPad Studio keeps notes, drawings, PDFs, presentations and task boards together in notebooks → sections → pages. Capture anything from the page you're reading without switching tabs. No account needed: your notes stay in your browser. ✂️ CAPTURE FROM THE WEB • Snip any element (Alt+Shift+S): hover a chart, a code sample or a product card and click — a clean, cropped picture lands in your note with a link to its source • Snip a region, an SVG, or anything on screen with your computer's own screenshot tool • Right-click "Add to WebPad" for text, images, videos, links or the whole page • Web clips: the current tab as a tidy link card 📝 A REAL EDITOR Headings, lists, to-dos, tables, columns, code blocks with highlighting, charts, quotes, page links and embedded videos (YouTube, Vimeo, Loom…). Markdown shortcuts and a "/" menu. Ready-made page templates, including a CV with an ATS check. Export to PDF or Word. ✏️ DRAW & DIAGRAM A hand-drawn style canvas: boxes, arrows that stay attached, freehand, text, frames, a smart pen that straightens shapes, a shape library, check boxes on shapes, alignment guides. Open and paste Excalidraw drawings. Export PNG. 📄 PDF, PRESENTATIONS, BOARDS • Read PDFs, search, highlight and draw over pages; download them with your marks • Presentations with themes, speaker notes and a presenter view; export PowerPoint or PDF • Task boards: To do · Doing · Done columns, due dates, a week view and a list view ☁️ GOOGLE DRIVE BACKUP & SYNC (optional) Connect your Google account once and WebPad backs up your notebooks to your own Google Drive automatically, at the interval you choose (or with one click). Install WebPad on another computer — or open webpad.studio on your phone — connect the same account and your notes are back; edits made in different places are merged, and if the same page changed in two places you keep both copies. Everything goes to a hidden app folder in your own Drive that only WebPad can read. We never see your notes — there is no WebPad server holding them. You can delete the Drive backup from the app at any time. 🔗 SHARE AS A LINK Share a page, section or notebook as a link. Small ones travel inside the link itself; bigger ones are encrypted in your browser before upload, so the service can't read them. Live links update as you edit; stop sharing anytime. 📱 ON YOUR PHONE TOO The same notebook runs at webpad.studio and installs on your phone like an app, with a native-feeling phone layout. 🔒 PRIVATE BY DESIGN • No sign-up, no ads, no tracking in the app • Nothing touches a web page until you snip or clip it • Or back up to a single file on your computer, optionally password-encrypted ⌨️ SHORTCUTS Alt+Z open/close panel · Alt+Shift+S snip · Alt+X new drawing · Alt+Shift+F full tab · Ctrl+K search everything · F1 help English, Türkçe, Deutsch, Español.
