Capture what you read. Actually remember it.
palim is a browser extension that saves the knowledge you find while reading the web, turns it into flashcards with AI, and closes the loop with spaced-repetition review - without breaking your reading flow.
No credit card. Free tier includes highlight, storage, and unlimited reviews.
The receiver blocks forever waiting on a send that never comes, so the goroutine is never reclaimed.
Why palim
Capture is easy. Remembering is the hard part.
Other clippers help you save. palim is built around the review loop - the part that turns saved snippets into knowledge you keep.
Highlight text on any page and save it in one click - source URL, page title and surrounding context come along for free.
Turn any clip into Q&A flashcards automatically. Less time formatting cards, more time learning.
Review due cards right inside the app with Again / Hard / Good / Easy. The schedule adapts to how well you remember.
Organize clips with tags, find anything fast, and export to Anki when you want to take cards elsewhere.
How it works
From highlight to long-term memory in three steps
One continuous loop, no app-switching to Notion, Obsidian or Anki mid-read.
Capture
Select text while reading and hit the floating button. The clip is saved with its source and context.
Generate
AI drafts flashcard-style questions and answers from the clip, so you don't write cards by hand.
Review
Due cards resurface on schedule. Rate how well you recalled and the algorithm plans the next review.
FAQ
Questions, answered
Everything you might wonder before trying palim.
Clippers stop at saving. palim's core is the review loop: it resurfaces what you saved on a spaced-repetition schedule so you actually retain it - Glasp has no built-in review.
Highlighting, storage, spaced-repetition review and AI flashcard generation (with a generous monthly quota) are free. Paid covers the expensive AI features like long-article and PDF summaries.
Yes. You can export selected clips to Anki from your own machine. palim's review still works on its own, so Anki is optional, not required.
Your clips are scoped to your account. Generating flashcards or summaries sends that clip's text to an AI provider to process - we're upfront about that and keeping it controllable is part of the design.
Chrome first, with Firefox, Edge, Brave and Arc planned. The web app works in any modern browser.
