About

Commonplace is a tool that helps you capture your thoughts across the web. Store for yourself and others, while connecting the dots seamlessly with anything you’ve previously captured.

🖌️ Whether you are on an article, research paper, YouTube video or other content, highlight any text to be able to comment any thoughts or notes to store for later. These notes will be stored into your account, under the article you just read.

❓Need help understanding certain concepts or terms in the article you are reading? Simply press the explain tool to get an understanding of the term in the context of the article - without opening more tabs.

👀 Want to see what the article is about before diving too deep? Press the Commonplace extension, and then TLDR to get a brief summary of the key points in the article!
