Notion Web Clipper for Atlas Browser

What is Notion Web Clipper?

Notion Web Clipper is the official browser extension from Notion that lets you save web content directly to your Notion workspace with a single click. With over 500,000 active users and a 4.7/5 rating, it's the essential tool for anyone using Notion as their second brain, research repository, or knowledge management system. The clipper transforms your browser into a seamless input channel for your Notion databases, letting you capture articles, tutorials, product pages, and inspiration without context-switching or copy-pasting.

The extension works on any webpage - articles, documentation, blog posts, research papers, product listings, social media threads, even PDFs opened in your browser. Click the Notion icon in your toolbar, and a clean popup appears showing the page title, URL, and preview. Choose your destination database from a dropdown (Reading List, Research, Articles, etc.), add custom properties like tags, categories, or reading status, and click "Save Page". In 2-3 seconds, the complete page is saved to Notion with formatting, images, and links preserved - no manual cleanup required.

What makes Notion Web Clipper particularly powerful is its flexibility. Save full pages for comprehensive archival, or highlight specific text and save only your selection as a focused quote or insight. Add custom tags or fill in database properties (like "Author", "Date", "Topic") directly in the clipper before saving. Configure default databases for different content types - research articles to a "Research" database, recipes to "Cooking", tutorials to "Learning" - so each clip goes exactly where it belongs automatically.

The clipper integrates seamlessly with Notion's existing features. Clipped pages become searchable alongside your other Notion content, appear in database views (table, gallery, calendar), and support all Notion properties like checkboxes, dates, multi-select tags, and relations. For users building personal knowledge bases, content libraries, or research archives, Notion Web Clipper is the fastest way to move information from the open web into your organized Notion workspace - no more forgetting to save articles, losing important links, or manually transferring content.

Key Features

⚡

One-Click Full Page Saving

Save complete web pages to Notion in 2-3 seconds with full formatting preserved - headings, paragraphs, lists, images, links, and code blocks. No manual copy-pasting or reformatting needed. The clipper extracts clean article content, removing ads and navigation clutter automatically. Works on news sites, blogs, documentation, Wikipedia, and most web content.

🎯

Select Target Database

Choose from all your Notion databases when saving - Reading List, Research, Articles, Projects, or any custom database. The clipper remembers your last-used database as default. Configure per-content-type defaults in settings: research goes to "Research DB", recipes to "Cooking DB". Supports inline databases, full-page databases, and linked databases equally.

🏷️

Add Tags & Properties

Fill in Notion database properties directly from the clipper before saving - tags, categories, status, dates, or custom fields. Add reading status ("To Read", "Reading", "Completed"), priority levels, topics, or author names. All property types supported: select, multi-select, text, number, date, checkbox, URL. Saves time vs. adding properties after clipping.

✂️

Save Selected Text Only

Highlight any text on a webpage before clicking the clipper icon - only your selection is saved to Notion. Perfect for capturing quotes, key insights, specific data points, or important paragraphs without full page clutter. Preserves text formatting (bold, italic, links). Ideal for research note-taking and focused knowledge capture.

📸

Save Screenshots

Capture visual screenshots of web pages alongside (or instead of) text content. Click "Save with Screenshot" to include a full-page image in your Notion page. Perfect for saving design inspiration, UI examples, infographics, social media posts, or content that doesn't clip well as text. Screenshots uploaded directly to Notion's storage.

🔗

Preserve Links & Formatting

Clipped content maintains all hyperlinks (clickable in Notion), text formatting (bold/italic/code), heading hierarchy, bullet/numbered lists, and images. Source URL automatically added to each clipped page as a bookmark or link property. Rich content like tweets, YouTube embeds, and code snippets preserved when possible using Notion's embed blocks.

Notion Web Clipper excels at integration with Notion's powerful database features - custom properties, views, filters, and relations.
