Kliplet
Save web pages to Markdown
Sometimes you just want a clean Markdown file, not another app or account. Kliplet's Markdown target saves the readable article — or a selection, or the highlights you marked — straight to your Downloads folder as a .md file, with frontmatter (title, source URL, date) you can template. Nothing leaves your device: Chrome writes the file locally and Kliplet ships no analytics. The same extension also clips to Notion, Obsidian, Logseq, Joplin, Anytype and Bear, so a Markdown file can be a default while you still send some pages to your notes app.
Clip to a .md file
Pick Markdown as the target in Options → Targets. Saving extracts the readable article and writes a Markdown file to your Downloads folder via Chrome's downloads permission — no API token, no account, no server.
What you can capture
- Full article cleaned to Markdown with frontmatter.
- Selection — only the passage you chose.
- Highlights marked on the page.
Frontmatter via templates
Template the frontmatter so every file lands with the title, source and tags your vault or pipeline expects — handy for Obsidian, static-site, or plain-folder workflows.
Local by definition
The file is written by Chrome to your computer; nothing is uploaded. It is the most private of the seven targets, with no third-party API involved at all.
FAQ
Does saving to Markdown need an account or token?
No. The Markdown target writes a .md file to your Downloads folder using Chrome's downloads permission — no API token, no account, nothing uploaded.
Can I control the frontmatter?
Yes. Use a template to set the title, source URL, tags and date so each file fits your vault or pipeline.
Can the same extension also clip to apps?
Yes. Kliplet supports seven targets — Markdown, Notion, Obsidian, Logseq, Joplin, Anytype and Bear — chosen per clip.
Is anything sent to Kliplet?
No. The Markdown file is written locally and Kliplet ships no analytics. The backend handles only payments, licensing and optional sync/AI.
