Engram

A local-first web clipper. Save pages as clean Markdown and generate AI summaries entirely on-device using Chrome's built-in AI.

Engram is a web clipper designed for privacy-conscious users, developers, and researchers who build personal knowledge bases.

Most AI clippers send the articles you read to external servers for processing. Engram is different. It utilizes Chrome's built-in AI model (Gemini Nano) to analyze and summarize content directly on your computer. Your browsing data never leaves your browser.

🚀 What Engram Does
Engram bridges the gap between the chaotic web and your organized notes.
🔹 Cleans & Converts: Instantly strips away ads, sidebars, and popups, converting the main article into clean, standard Markdown.
🔹 Summarizes Locally: Uses on-device AI to generate concise, accurate summaries of long content instantly.
🔹 Synthesizes Reviews: Analyze Amazon product reviews to get AI-powered verdicts, pros/cons, and quality alerts before you buy.
🔹 Organizes: Prepares the content for export to tools like Obsidian, Notion, Logseq, or VS Code.

🛒 NEW: Review Synthesis
Making a purchase decision? Engram now detects Amazon product pages and offers to synthesize customer reviews:
• Analyzes up to 20 reviews using progressive AI batching
• Generates a structured verdict with sentiment score
• Lists pros and cons with frequency indicators
• Alerts you to recurring quality issues or defects
• Export the analysis as Markdown for your research

🛡️ Why You Should Install It

1. True Privacy (No Data Leaks)
Because Engram uses Chrome's experimental on-device AI, your data does not get sent to OpenAI, Anthropic, or any third-party cloud. You can clip sensitive internal documentation or private research without worry.
2. Speed & Reliability
Cloud-based extensions often lag or fail when their servers are overloaded. Engram runs locally on your machine, offering zero-latency performance once the model is loaded.
3. Universal Format
Stop getting locked into proprietary "read later" apps. Engram gives you raw Markdown text that you own forever. It works with any text editor or note-taking application.
