Web clipper for Bear on macOS

Bear is a macOS Markdown notes app, but getting web content into it usually means copy-paste and reformatting. On macOS, Kliplet adds Bear as a save target alongside Notion, Obsidian, Logseq, Joplin, Anytype and Markdown, so a simplified article, full page, selection, or URL-only record can become a note from one shortcut. The Bear destination handoff stays on-device, the Kliplet extension ships no usage analytics, and Bear handoffs are never durably replayed because Bear cannot confirm note creation. Separately, Alt+H stores page highlights locally and reapplies them on revisit.

Bear as a macOS clip destination

On macOS, choose Bear as the target in Options → Targets, then save with the Kliplet shortcut or the right-click menu. Kliplet hands the clip to the installed Bear app through its local bear:// URL scheme. On Windows and Linux the target is shown disabled with a macOS-only explanation.

What you can clip

Persistent local highlights

Alt+H stores passages locally and Kliplet reapplies them when you revisit the source page. They are not written to Bear by default. A paid user can include them only by explicitly creating a custom template with {{highlights}}; optional paid sync uploads disclosed highlight records only after separate consent.

One clipper, many tools

The same shortcut and templates send a page to Bear today and Notion, Obsidian or Logseq tomorrow — no separate clipper per app.

Private by default

The Bear destination write and clip history stay on your device, and Kliplet ships zero analytics. The backend handles one-time Notion authorization, payments, licensing, and separately enabled sync or AI.
