The web clipper

Send to Grain is a small extension for Chrome and Firefox. Right-click anything worth keeping and it lands in the store you last had open, as ordinary files in your own folders.

What a clip looks like once it lands: the page kept as a webpage grain, on the canvas beside everything else.

What it sends

Images: Right-click an image and it downloads into your store, with the page it came from remembered as its source.
Posts: Send an Instagram, TikTok, Reddit, Pinterest, Cara, ArtStation, Bluesky, Are.na or Cosmos post and its media download at full resolution, with the author and caption remembered.
Pages and links: Send a page and it is kept as a webpage grain, carrying the page title and its preview image.
Audio: Audio files can be sent straight from the browser too.
Articles: Clip an article and the readable part of the page is converted to markdown in your browser and saved as a note, with the source attached.

No accounts, no servers

The extension has no host permissions, reads a page only when you clip it, and never talks to any server. It hands what you picked to the Grain app on your computer through a grain:// link, and article conversion happens inside your browser. Nothing is collected, and nothing leaves your machine.

Get the extension

Free, for Chrome (and Chromium browsers) and Firefox.

Add to Chrome Add to Firefox

It needs the free Grain desktop app running on your Mac or Windows machine.

Try it on your own folders

The download is free for three stores with every feature included, and nothing is imported anywhere: point it at a folder and it is a store.
