RESEARCH HIGHLIGHTER FOR CHROME
Highlight the evidence.
Keep the source.
Save the exact passages that matter while you research online. Keep each highlight with its original page, add your own note, and organize material by project instead of rebuilding the context later.

Research Web Highlighter in a source
1
Keep the exact passagenot just the tab
2
Add why it mattersnote + folder + source
A SHORTER RESEARCH LOOP
Capture the useful part while the reason for saving it is still obvious.
The point is not to highlight more. It is to keep enough context that the material still makes sense when you return to it.
Highlight
Select the sentence or paragraph you actually want to remember or use.
Add context
Attach a note and choose a folder while the connection is still fresh.
Return later
Find the saved passage in your library and reopen the original source in one click.
SOURCE-FIRST NOTES
A useful highlight is more useful when you know where it came from.
Save the quote, explanation, number, or argument together with its source. Your note stays with the saved item, so “why did I keep this?” does not become another research task.
- Original webpage kept with every saved highlight
- Optional notes for questions, comparisons, or next steps
- Folders for projects, topics, courses, or clients
- Favorites for material you know you will need again

NOT EVERY THOUGHT BELONGS IN THE LIBRARY
Leave a note on the page when the thought belongs to the page.
Use Sticky Notes for reminders, questions, comparisons, or things you want to check the next time you open a source. Use saved highlights when you want the passage in your research library.

Does Source B define the term the same way?
USE CASES
Built for the part of research that happens across too many tabs.
Use the same workflow whether the “research” is academic, professional, or simply a decision that needs evidence.
Academic work
Keep useful passages from papers and sources with enough context for notes and literature reviews.
Writing
Save the evidence, examples, and references you want to return to when you start drafting.
Market research
Collect details from reports, product pages, articles, and competitor sites without losing the source.
Comparisons
Keep the exact claims and details that matter when you are evaluating options across websites.
BOOKMARKS ARE NOT THE SAME THING
A bookmark saves where. A research highlight saves what.
Sometimes you need the whole page. Sometimes you need one paragraph and the reason it mattered. Research Web Highlighter supports both, so you do not have to choose one system for everything.
Bookmark
Useful when you know the whole page is worth returning to.
Saved highlight
Useful when one exact passage is the thing you need again.
Sticky Note
Useful when your own reminder or question belongs directly on the page.

Can I organize research into folders?
Yes. Use folders for different topics, papers, clients, courses, or projects, and Favorites for material you know you will need again.
Can I add notes while researching?
Yes. Add a note while saving a highlight, or use Sticky Notes directly on webpages for questions, reminders, comparisons, and ideas.
Can I save a whole page as well as a passage?

Is it only for academic research?
No. It also works for market research, writing, competitive research, product comparisons, and other projects that involve collecting information from multiple websites.
