Clip any page
without leaving it.
Highlight text on any site, add your take, and publish the receipt — straight from a dock beside the page. No copy-paste, no tab-juggling.
Annotated's extension is built for Chrome.
Open this page in Chrome to install — or tap + New clip and paste a link to clip without the extension.

How it works
Highlight on any page
Select the text that matters — an article, a PDF, a thread. The Annotated dock catches it.
“Birmingham boasts an average monthly rent of $1,182…”
Add your take
Say why it matters. Your annotation is the point — the clip is just the evidence.
This is the relocation story nobody's telling.
Publish the receipt
One click posts the clip, your take, and the source link to your Annotated feed.

Once it clears Chrome Web Store review, this becomes a one-click install — no download, no Developer mode.
What it can access — and why
- Reads the page you're actively clipping, only when you open the dock. Nothing in the background.
- Stores your draft take locally until you publish.
- Sends a clip to Annotated only when you hit Publish.
- No browsing history, no tracking across sites, no selling data.
Plain version: it does nothing until you ask it to, and it only ever sees the page you're clipping.
On mobile, Safari, or Firefox?
- The extension isn't available there yet — but you don't need it to use Annotated.
- Tap + New clip anywhere and paste a link.
- We'll pull the page so you can highlight and add your take right in the app.
Same clip, same receipt — just one extra tap without the dock.
