PX7 Markdown Web Clipper

Save the web to disk, not to a service.

Web Clipper is a native Mac menu-bar app. Reading something in Safari worth keeping? One click saves it as clean Markdown — just the article, no nav or ads — with the title, link and date up top, and its images downloaded right alongside.

No cloud. No account. Every clip is a plain .md file in a folder you choose — yours to read, edit, and keep offline.

How it works

The page you're reading, as a file.

✂️

One click, article only

Click the menu-bar icon on any Safari page. Web Clipper pulls out the actual article — nav, ads and sidebars stripped away.

📄

Clean Markdown with front matter

Saved as a .md file with title, url, date and author at the top — ready for any notes app or static site.

🖼️

Images kept locally

Every image is downloaded into a folder next to the clip and re-linked, so it still reads perfectly with no connection.

📂

Your folder, your files

Choose where clips land — Documents, a vault, anywhere. If Markdown Viewer is your default, each clip opens right there.

The promise

A bookmark rots. A file doesn't.

A read-it-later service can shut down, paywall your queue, or quietly re-render the page. Web Clipper takes the opposite bet: the moment something's worth keeping, it becomes plain Markdown on your disk — no login, no sync, no server that has to still exist next year.

Why

Read-it-later, without handing it to anyone.

Clipping the web usually means an account and a company holding your reading. Web Clipper does the extraction locally — the same reader-mode cleanup your browser does, turned into a Markdown file you own. It runs entirely on your Mac and asks for one thing: permission to read the page in Safari.
