Simple Scholar Extension

Simple Scholar allows you to capture the best parts of any website, by highlighting text, and then copying your selections as Markdown in to your favorite note taking software (e.g., Notion, Obsidian).

Are you an Amazon Kindle user? Great! While viewing highlights from books you've read on https://read.amazon.com/notebook, Simple Scholar can automatically collect all your highlights from the selected book, allowing you to store them wherever you choose.

This tool is completely based within the browser and therefore no information is stored on any remote server. Keep track of your notes wherever you like without needing yet another monthly subscription.
