Chrome Extension for Reading Notes, Questions, and AI Prompts

AskLater Box is a local-first Chrome extension for readers who want to save quotes, questions, doubts, and follow-up thoughts while reading webpages — then export them as clean AI-ready Markdown prompts. No account, no cloud upload, no AI API inside the extension.

What to look for in a reading notes Chrome extension

Low friction — saving a note should not pull you out of the page.
Context attached — each note should keep the quote it came from.
Local-first — your reading content should not be uploaded by default.
A useful export — notes should lead somewhere, not just pile up.

Why question capture is different from generic note-taking

Generic note-taking treats everything as content to store. Question capture treats a note as something you intend to act on — a follow-up, a challenge, an extension. That intent is why AskLater Box lets you tag each card as Question, Counterpoint, or Extend.

Local-first notes

Saved notes stay in your browser's local extension storage. AskLater Box does not upload them, and no account is required for local features. This keeps your reading content private by default.

AI-ready Markdown export

When you are ready to follow up, export your saved cards as a Markdown prompt and paste it into ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, or any AI tool. The extension itself does not call any AI API — you stay in control of when and where your context is used.

Free vs Lifetime plan

The free plan includes up to 5 cards per page, local storage, and Markdown prompt export. The Early Bird Lifetime plan is a $9.90 one-time payment that unlocks unlimited local cards for core local features. Lifetime access does not include future cloud sync, AI credits, third-party model usage, or team features.
