Sticky notes that float over any webpage without blocking it — plus the memory of where you were, what you were reading, and why you kept it.

Not a screenshot — the real thing, right here. Drag the note, fade it over the text, highlight a line, set a reminder.
ESSAY
A bookmark saves a location and nothing else — not why you stopped, not what you were thinking, not what you meant to do next.
The best tools disappear. They stay out of the way until the moment you reach for them, and then they are exactly where your hand expected them to be.
Select any sentence above to highlight it. What if the page could remember you back?
Remind me…
Tinted like glass, never frosted — the page behind stays sharp at every setting.
You have saved thousands of pages already. The problem was never saving them.
Before
After
Different work, same problem: the page was easy to find again, the reason wasn't.
Every source keeps the note that explains why it belongs in your essay — so writing it up is reading your own notes, not re-reading the internet.
Keep documentation exactly where you left it. Not the homepage of the docs — the paragraph that actually answered the question.
A month-long rabbit hole stays one collection with your thinking attached, instead of eighty tabs you're afraid to close.
Swipe files that remember the reason you swiped it — the headline, the offer, the exact thing worth stealing.
The line that sparked the idea stays highlighted on the page, waiting, however many weeks later you come back for it.
Close the laptop mid-task on Friday. Open it on Monday and the task, the page and the reason are all still there.
Keep notes visible without ever blocking the page you're working on — and get every page handed back exactly as you left it, weeks later.
Click-through notes
Every other sticky-note tool drops a box on your page, and that box eats your clicks. PageMarks notes stay visible while every click, scroll and keystroke passes through to the page beneath.
Browser memory
Return weeks later and instantly remember why you saved a page. PageMarks keeps more than a link: your notes on it, how far you had read, the workspace you were in — so you land where you left off instead of starting the page again.
Workspaces & collections
Keep Work and Personal completely apart, and gather pages from across the web around a single idea — a renovation, a trip, a research rabbit hole.
Sessions & timeline
Capture a whole window of tabs — reading positions and all — and bring the moment back later. Browse everything you've kept by when you kept it.
Search everything
One search across your notes, highlights, saved pages and collections. If you kept it, you can find it — by a word, a phrase, or the page it lived on. Typos are fine; the search is fuzzy.
Nothing here needs remembering, filing or tidying up afterwards. That's the whole idea.
9:04 — Morning
Eleven tabs into a question you'll still be answering after lunch.
9:37
It stays on the page itself — not copied into some other app you'll forget you own.
9:38
"This contradicts the other source." Two seconds now, an hour saved later — and the page underneath never stops working.
17:50
No tidying up, no "save these for later", no forty tabs left open out of fear.
21:15 — Evening
The reminder you set surfaces the page at the moment you asked for it.
Three weeks later
The page, your highlight, your note, the paragraph you stopped at, and the reason you cared. Your browser remembered where you were — PageMarks remembered why you were there.
Because a bookmark saves a location, and a location was never the part you forgot.

PageMarks reads the pages you use it on. We don't. There is no analytics SDK, no telemetry and no advertising code anywhere in the extension — not switched off, not present.
The whole policy is short, because we collect very little — read it in two minutes.
Real reviews, from real installs.
"Transparent notes are something Chrome should have built years ago."
"Browser Memory alone makes this worth paying for."
"I finally stopped losing research."
Everything in PageMarks — Cloud Sync, unlimited notes, workspaces and collections, highlights, todos, reminders and screenshots — is free while we build the product with our community. No card, no trial clock, nothing to cancel.
This is early access, not a permanent giveaway — pricing will return, and we'll give plenty of notice before it does.
Install it, create your account, and the next page you save keeps its reason attached.
Your browser remembers where you were.
PageMarks remembers why you were there.

Nothing right now — every feature is free while we're in early access and building the product with our community. Paid plans will return later, with plenty of notice before anything changes, and creating an account today never requires a card.
If you subscribed before PageMarks went free, you keep full access until the end of the period you've already paid for — that's the same way Netflix or Spotify handle it; cancelling never cuts a paid period short. Nothing you've written is ever deleted either way.
Nothing is deleted. Every note, memory, collection and workspace stays on your device exactly as you left it. The extension locks until you subscribe again, and the moment you do, everything is back. We never delete your data.
No. Your notes live in your browser's own storage, and we don't track the pages you visit. Our servers hold your email address and your subscription status. The one exception is deliberate and yours to make: if you switch on Cloud Sync, a copy of your own data is stored under your account so your other devices can pull it down — we don't read it, analyse it or sell it, and deleting it removes it from our servers. Leave sync off and none of it ever reaches us.
Yes. Everything works without a connection; we re-check your subscription in the background when you're back online.
Settings → Account → Manage subscription, which opens Paddle's billing portal. One click, no email required, no retention maze.
