Good ideas deserve
a second visit.

The most useful context is often something you have already read.

Capture the details while they are in front of you. Keep the source, choose a project, and find them again when they matter.

You choose what becomes memory.

An illustration of the page-to-memory workflow.

Save a page or a passage

Capture readable page text, or highlight just the part you want to keep.

Review before you save

Edit the title and text. Pick a project inside your paired workspace.

Keep it in your Imprint

Captures go to the local service. Recall them from Imprint or your connected coding tools.

Manual installation

A ZIP. A folder.
Your Chrome toolbar.

Chrome loads the extracted extension folder. Keep that folder somewhere permanent so it stays installed.

Full setup & troubleshooting
  1. 01

    Download and extract

    Download the latest ZIP above and extract it. Inside is an imprint-chrome-extension folder with manifest.json and an install guide.

  2. 02

    Load it in Chrome

    Open chrome://extensions, turn on Developer mode, then click Load unpacked. Select the extracted folder containing the manifest.

  3. 03

    Connect your local memory

    Start your browser-enabled Imprint backend. Open the extension’s Settings, run the pairing command it shows for your workspace, and paste the token into Connect and save.

    Pin it. Preview it. Save it.

    Pin Imprint Capture from Chrome’s Extensions menu. On a page, choose Preview page or Preview selection, review the text, and save.

What leaves my browser?

The title, source URL and text you explicitly save go to your local Imprint. The extension does not read cookies or passwords. Captures follow your workspace’s existing sync and model settings, including any remote providers you have chosen.

How do I update it?

Download the latest ZIP and replace the files in the same extracted folder. Open chrome://extensions and click Reload for Imprint Capture. Keeping the same folder helps preserve the extension ID and pairing.
