Chrome saves the link.
We save the page.
Click Save this page and ContextBolt keeps the text, not just the address. Each page is tagged by topic, sits in one library with your X, Reddit and LinkedIn saves, and opens in ContextBolt Reader even after the original is gone.
Unlimited and synced on Pro, $6/mo

What a bookmark keeps
An illustration comparing two saves of the same article. Chrome's bookmark dialog takes a name and a folder, and stores only that name and the web address. The ContextBolt save holds the title, the site, the author, the article text, topic tags, and 9,412 characters of the page, all searchable.
- 2Fields, and that is the lot
- A browser bookmark stores a title and a URL. Nothing of what the page said. Six months on you remember the argument, not the headline, and there is nothing to search.
- 0Words of the page indexed
- Chrome's bookmark search matches the title and the address, nothing else. If the title does not contain the word you typed, the bookmark may as well not exist.
- 404And the reason you saved it
- A bookmark points at a page somebody else controls. Rewritten, paywalled or taken down, and the link still opens while the thing you wanted is gone.
What you can save
How to save a page with its text
- Step 1 Add ContextBolt to Chrome Free from the Chrome Web Store, with no account and no credit card. Pin it to your toolbar. Works in Chrome, Brave, Arc and Edge.
- Step 2 Click Save this page Click the ContextBolt icon, then Save this page. It keeps the title, site, author and text, and tags the page by topic. Highlight a paragraph first to keep just that.
- Step 3 Find it from a few words Search what the page said, in any order, typos and all. Click the result to read it in ContextBolt Reader, or open the original.
Pro adds a personal MCP endpoint, so Claude, Cursor or Codex can search these saves in a conversation. How the connection works
Reading a saved page
Click a saved page in your library and it opens as a clean article, with one button back to the original. The text was kept when you saved it, so the page still reads after it is rewritten or taken down.
- TextUp to 100,000 characters, with its headings, lists, quotes and links. Images are not saved.
- SearchCovers the first 10,000 characters of every page, plus the title, site and tags.
- PDFA PDF opened from a link keeps its text, up to 25 MB. A scanned one saves as its title and link.
- AI agentOn Pro, Claude, Cursor or Codex reads the first 2,000 characters and gets the link for the rest.
ContextBolt Reader is on every plan, including free. Turn it off in Settings and a click opens the original page instead.

Why keep web pages in ContextBolt
Help for lost browser bookmarks
We cannot bring back what the browser lost, but these guides often can. Missing bookmarks are more likely a switched profile or a paused sync than deleted data. Once they are back, save the next page somewhere that keeps its text.

What our users say
Chrome Web Store 5.0 from 7 ratings 300+ users. Free, and yours to keep even if you never pay a cent. See the listing As an X/Twitter user, I’ve bookmarked close to 2,000 tweets, posts, videos and articles over the years. The problem is there isn’t an easy or straightforward way for me to extract, summarise, or synthesise the content I find insightful… ContextBolt solves this challenge for me.
Frequently asked questions
Something else on your mind? Get in touch.
What exactly gets saved?
The page title, the author, the site and the page text. ContextBolt Reader keeps up to 100,000 characters of it, which covers almost any article, and search covers the first 10,000. Navigation, adverts, comment sections and cookie banners are stripped out first, and images are not saved. The original URL is kept too, so the link still works.
How do I save a page?
Click the ContextBolt icon in your toolbar, then Save this page. Pin the icon from Chrome's extensions menu so it is always in reach. There is no keyboard shortcut or right-click menu yet.
Does it work in Brave, Edge and other Chromium browsers?
Yes. ContextBolt is a Chrome extension, so it installs in Chrome, Brave, Arc, Edge and any Chromium browser. In Brave the Chrome Web Store button reads "Add to Brave" rather than "Add to Chrome". Saving, capture from X, Reddit and LinkedIn, and search all work the same afterward. Firefox and Safari are not supported; the extension is only published on the Chrome Web Store.
Does it work on pages behind a login or a paywall?
Yes, as long as you can see the page. ContextBolt reads the tab already open in front of you rather than fetching the URL from a server, so anything you are signed in to reads the same as a public page. That includes company intranets and subscriptions you pay for.
Can I save one paragraph instead of the whole page?
Yes. Select at least 40 characters before you press save and only that selection is stored. It is the fastest way to keep the one useful line out of a very long report.
Does it replace my Chrome bookmarks?
It works alongside them. Keep the bookmarks bar for the sites you open every day, and save to ContextBolt the pages you want to find again by what they said. The extension has no access to your Chrome bookmarks and never changes them.
Is this a Pocket alternative?
Yes, if you used Pocket to save things and find them later. Save this page keeps a page with its text, so you search what the article said, and your X, Reddit and LinkedIn saves land in the same library. Click any save and it opens in ContextBolt Reader, a clean reading view with a button to the original. It runs in desktop browsers like Chrome, Brave and Edge, so there is no phone app. The full comparison goes through both.
Can I import my existing Chrome bookmarks?
Not yet. ContextBolt indexes what you save from the day you install it. A browser bookmark is only a title and a URL, so importing one gives you a link with nothing to search, which is the problem you had in the first place. If you want your old bookmarks pulled in anyway, tell us and it moves up the list.
What about YouTube videos and PDFs?
A video page saves its title, its link and the text the page shows. ContextBolt does not fetch the video or its transcript. A PDF you open from a web link saves with its text, so you can search it and read it in ContextBolt Reader. A scanned PDF has no text to keep, so it saves as a link with its title, and so does one over 25 MB.
If I open the same article from a newsletter and from X, do I get two bookmarks?
No. Tracking tags like utm_source and fbclid, and page anchors, are stripped before the save is matched. The same address is one bookmark whichever link you followed to it.
Are my saved pages stored online?
On the free plan your library lives in your browser, on your computer. Pro adds cloud sync to our server, so your library is backed up to your account. The synced copy carries each page's first 2,000 characters. The full copy ContextBolt Reader opens stays in your browser.
Does it save my X, Reddit and LinkedIn bookmarks too?
Yes, and that is the point of using one tool. X saves are picked up when you open your bookmarks page and the moment you tap the bookmark icon, Reddit saves sync while you browse Reddit, and LinkedIn posts save with the ContextBolt button on each feed post. They sit in the same library as your saved web pages, on their own tab. The main bookmarks page covers the social side.
How much of a saved page can Claude actually read?
The opening, about 2,000 characters. That is enough for your AI to tell you what a page argues and whether it is the one you meant. When a page is longer than that, the result says so and offers you the URL instead of guessing at the rest. Your own copy in the extension keeps far more, up to 100,000 characters, and opens in ContextBolt Reader.
Does it cost anything?
Free up to 150 bookmarks. Pro is $6/mo for unlimited saves, cloud sync, and the endpoint that connects your library to Claude, Cursor and Codex. See pricing.
