Draw, annotate, and highlight any webpage — a website annotation tool for markup, client feedback, and design collaboration. Draw & Highlight is a website annotation tool that turns any webpage into a canvas you can draw on, mark up, and highlight — right in Chrome, with nothing to install on the other end. Think of it as a Google Chrome marker for the whole web: a draw on webpage extension for sketching ideas, a paint on website tool for pointing things out, and a website annotation extension for leaving notes exactly where they matter. Annotate the Web the way you'd mark up a printed page, then find every marked-up page again later in a searchable local history. ✏️ DRAW, MARK UP, AND PAINT ON ANY WEBSITE Open the toolbar on any page and start annotating website content with a full freehand toolkit: • Pen and highlighter with adjustable stroke width, a full color picker, and custom colors • Shapes — line, rectangle, ellipse, and arrow — for pointing out exactly what matters • A text tool for labels and notes placed directly on the page • Quick stamps (✓ ✗ ★ ! ♥) for one-click call-outs • A call-style laser pointer that fades out automatically — ideal for screen-sharing • Select/move and eraser tools, plus full undo/redo and a one-click clear A simple web page markup tool for yourself, or a full review pass on someone else's work — every stroke stays crisp and editable until you're done. 🖍️ HIGHLIGHT TEXT WITHOUT A DRAWING MODE Text highlighting works differently from every other tool: select any text on a page and a small color-swatch menu appears immediately — no drawing mode toggle, no extra click. Click an existing highlight again to remove it. It's the fastest way to mark up an article or a long thread, and it pairs with the rest of the annotating website toolkit when a highlight alone isn't enough. 📤 A WEB FEEDBACK TOOL FOR DESIGNER COLLABORATION Draw & Highlight also works as a lightweight web feedback tool: draw on a design, a staging site, or a live page, then export the marked-up result and send it along. That covers a lot of real client feedback and designer collaboration — no whiteboard app, no separate screenshot tool, no account for anyone to create. 1. Open the page you want to review and draw or highlight what needs attention 2. Add a note with the text tool or drop a quick stamp for a one-click call-out 3. Open your local history, then export or revisit the page whenever you need it It's not a live multi-cursor whiteboard — there's no server in the middle — but for visual collaboration built around "here's exactly what I mean," it removes most of the friction. 🕘 A SEARCHABLE LOCAL HISTORY Every page you've annotated shows up in a local history list with a thumbnail, drawing/highlight counts, and full-text search. Open a page to keep working on it, export it, or delete it — anytime. Right-click any page and choose "View annotation history" for one-click access, or reach the same list from the toolbar and the extension popup. Annotations reload automatically the next time you visit an annotated page, so a website annotation extension you used last month is still there today. 1️⃣ Reviewers use it to leave feedback directly on a page instead of a separate document 2️⃣ Writers use it to mark up long articles before rewriting them 3️⃣ Teams use it for quick design reviews and screen-share walkthroughs, thanks to the laser pointer 🔒 PRIVATE BY DESIGN Real-time annotation shouldn't mean real-time tracking. Everything you draw or highlight is written to chrome.storage.local the moment you make it — on your own device, instantly, with nothing sent anywhere else. There's no account, no server, no analytics, and no tracking of any kind. Your annotations are never transmitted anywhere. See the full privacy policy for details. 🔑 WHY THE PERMISSIONS ▸ storage / unlimitedStorage — save your drawings, highlights, and history locally ▸ activeTab / scripting — draw on the page you're viewing and reapply saved highlights on reload ▸ contextMenus — add the right-click history shortcut ▸ Host access — needed so the toolbar and highlighter work on any site you choose to use them on 📌 FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS 📌 Is this a website annotation tool or a drawing app? 💡 Both — use the pen, shapes, and stamps for a full markup pass, or stick to text highlighting when that's all you need. 📌 Is there a cost to use it? 💡 No cost and no account — install it and start annotating the web immediately. 📌 Can I use it for client feedback or design reviews? 💡 Yes. Draw or highlight on the page, add notes, then export the result from your history and share it. 📌 Do highlights and drawings survive a page reload? 💡 Yes. They're saved per page and reapplied automatically, and every annotated page stays searchable in your local history. 📌 Does anything I draw ever leave my device? 💡 No. There's no server and no analytics — everything stays in chrome.storage.local on your own computer. Whether you're marking up an article to read later, leaving client feedback on a design, walking someone through a page on a call, or just doodling, Draw & Highlight keeps annotating website pages simple, fast, and completely private.
