Summary
Easily highlight PDF and websites, save it for later, and share it with everyone.
Glasp is a free Chrome Extension that lets you quickly highlight websites and PDF files with colored highlighting options, which are then automatically curated to your Glasp homepage. These highlights can then be tagged, searched for, linked to, and shared on a variety of other platforms, including Twitter, Teams, and Slack. YouTube, web article, and PDF summarization functions are powered by AI models such as ChatGPT (OpenAI) and Claude (Anthropic).
You can see all the highlights and notes in the sidebar on the web and PDF, and clicking each highlight takes you to the highlighted place in the web page or inside the PDF. Also, you can tag the web page and PDF and see what other people highlighted in the website or PDF from the sidebar. With one click, the content you’ve collected appears across all your devices!
Check out your highlights on your Glasp page or in the original source, where they remain highlighted. Discover more content on the Glasp website and connect with other like-minded readers who share your interests. By following your friends or like-minded people, you will discover insightful and thought-provoking content that deepen your knowledge and understanding.
Highlight. Save. Share. Repeat. Make an impact, become a knowledge curator.
