Built this for my own research workflow and thought others might find it useful.

What it does:

• One-click capture of any page (text, images, metadata)
• Auto-generates citations in APA/MLA/Harvard/Chicago from page metadata
• Research projects — group clips, tag quotes, add notes
• Prompt builder — select multiple clips, pick a mode (compare, summarize, outline), downloads a structured markdown
• Upload that markdown to any AI and it knows exactly what to do with your sources

What it doesn't do:

• No cloud, no accounts, no tracking
• Doesn't phone home — everything local
• Doesn't write essays for you — just organizes your research so AI can work with it properly

Free tier: 5 clips/day, 1 prompt export/day. Pro (coming soon) removes limits.

Available on Edge.
Chrome and Opera coming soon.

Note: Some Pro features (auto-capture, session capture, AI summarization) aren't available yet — the paid tier is coming soon. All free features work fully right now.

Would love feedback — what would make this more useful for you?

Every essay I'd have 15 tabs open, manually copying quotes, losing track of which source said what, and scrambling to format citations at the end.

So I built Inst-AI-nt Snap — a browser extension that:

• Captures any page in one click (text + images)
• Auto-generates citations (APA, MLA, Harvard, Chicago)
• Organizes sources into research projects
• Exports everything as a single markdown file you can upload to ChatGPT/Gemini/Copilot and get an instant outline, summary, or paraphrased notes — with citations already included
• The AI doesn't write your essay. It just works with properly structured sources instead of you pasting random paragraphs into ChatGPT and hoping for the best.

Free to use (5 clips/day). No accounts, no cloud — everything stays in your browser.

Available on Edge.
Chrome and Opera coming soon.
