Clip web pages to clean Markdown with math support, then edit with live preview. Rubycite Web Clipper is a powerful browser extension designed to revolutionize how you capture and convert web content into clean, well-structured Markdown. Ideal for academic note-taking, research annotation, documentation, and retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) pipelines, this tool streamlines the extraction of readable text and complex mathematical expressions from any webpage. Whether you are a student, researcher, educator, or professional working with technical documents, Rubycite offers a seamless workflow to transform cluttered web pages—including scientific articles, math-heavy content, and tutorials—into clean Markdown files ready for editing, storage, or citation. At its core, Rubycite intelligently analyzes the current webpage to strip away distracting elements such as navigation bars, cookie consent banners, overlays, ads, and sidebars, leaving only the essential readable content. It excels at recognizing and extracting mathematical notation in formats like LaTeX, MathJax, and KaTeX, then beautifully renders these formulas within the integrated Markdown editor using live KaTeX preview. The split-pane editor allows users to view raw Markdown and rendered output simultaneously, supporting efficient editing, annotation, and refinement of captured content. Rubycite supports a full suite of file management operations within the extension interface, including creating new Markdown files, opening existing documents, saving modifications, and downloading files directly—all designed to fit flexible workflows. The interface is thoughtfully localized, offering users a choice of eight languages with intuitive controls and keyboard shortcuts to accelerate common actions such as saving (Ctrl+S) or creating new files (Ctrl+N). Users can choose between a straightforward one-click “Convert & Download” option for quick capture or a more detailed “Convert & Edit” mode that opens the advanced editor for adding notes and enhancing mathematical expressions. With its combination of high-quality content cleansing, precise math extraction, and robust Markdown editing, Rubycite empowers users to create clean, citation-ready documents effortlessly. This extension seamlessly bridges the gap between casual web browsing and professional knowledge management, making it an essential tool for anyone managing complex text and math content across multiple disciplines.
