Notate.so▲101
Hey all :) I noticed the development on the Notion web clipper chrome extension is kinda slow, so I built a better one. It works on any web page, any youtube video, and any PDF. Features: - highlight + note + collections - auto-scrollback to your highlights (page automatically scrolls to the text you highlighted and it works on LLMs web interfaces) - automatic sync to Notion (+page+dbs creation) - reminders: the app pings you with an email to review and delete your already-checked highlights (you set the ping period) Let me know what you think.
