Project Overview

A Chrome extension built on Manifest V3 and React that lets researchers highlight, save, and organize snippets from any web page into synced collections, with fast search across everything they have captured.

The Problem

Serious web research means dozens of tabs and copied text scattered across notes apps. There is no fast way to grab a highlight in context, keep its source, and find it again later without losing where it came from.

Our Solution

Snippa adds a lightweight capture layer to the browser. Highlight text on any page and save it to a collection with the source domain, tags, and date attached. A full dashboard organizes everything into collections with instant search and cross-device sync.
