Magic Gourd: Web Highlight & Note Assistant Extension

Magic Gourd Browser Extension is designed specifically for highlighting text and images and taking notes on any webpage. Its simple design keeps your reading process focused and efficient. While reading, if you come across something that inspires you, a simple click will highlight it.

Inspiration is the spark of thought. Every highlight or note is a reinforcement for your future self. Our mission is to quietly safeguard these sparks for you and be ready whenever you need them.

Inspiration is an emotional connection. Someday, when you reopen a page, the extension will automatically load your past highlights, as if you are resuming a conversation with the original author, connecting the past with the future.

Inspiration is your unique intellectual wealth. We use a local encryption technology solution, and the backend database stores only encrypted data. In the future, we will also support non-custodial keys to ensure that all your data belongs solely to you. This solution comes at a certain cost, but we believe it’s well worth it.

Inspiration is like a magic that everyone possesses. The Magic Gourd Browser Extension will be free forever. We cannot promise permanent operation, but we will reserve a guarantee fund. Even if the company shuts down one day, it will still be able to support the service for over 10 years. We hope this number will be “forever,” so we will explore sustainable business models in the future. However, revenue will always come from new features, not existing ones.

Main Features:

✅ Add underlines, highlights, notes, and tags to any webpage with no limit on the quantity;
✅ Support for multiple types of highlights: text, images, YouTube video frames, Bilibili video frames, etc.;
✅ Support for multiple highlight colors;
✅ Export highlights as cards for easy sharing on social media or saving into your album;

✅ Support marking as unread, allowing you to read later;
✅ Browse history, quickly search, categorize, filter, and sort highlights;
✅ Multi-device sync to ensure your data is never lost;
✅ Offline mode supported, with automatic sync to the cloud after reconnecting;
✅ Local encryption to ensure your data belongs only to you.
