Send to Grain

Send pages, images, audio and links from your browser into Grain, or clip an article as a note.

Send to Grain is the browser half of Grain, the local-first reference app for Mac and Windows (grainref.app). Grain keeps reference in stores as files in a folder on your computer. Right-click anything worth keeping and it lands in the store you last had open, as ordinary files in your own folders: - Images download into your store, with the page they came from remembered as their source. - Send a social media post (or an image on one) and its media download at full resolution, with the author and caption remembered. - A page is kept as a webpage grain, carrying its title and preview image. - Audio files can be sent straight from the browser. - "Clip article to Grain" converts the readable part of a page to markdown inside your browser and saves it as a note, with the source attached. No accounts, no servers. The extension has no host permissions, reads a page only when you clip it, and never talks to any server: it hands what you picked to the Grain app on your own computer through a grain:// link. Nothing is collected, and nothing leaves your machine. Requires the free Grain desktop app (grainref.app) on macOS or Windows. Article extraction uses Defuddle (MIT), bundled inside the extension.
