FlexiNote - Smart Sticky Note

FlexiNote is a Google Chrome extension that allows users to place customizable sticky notes directly onto any webpage. Each note is tied to a specific URL, ensuring information reappears exactly where it is needed. By combining contextual placement, flexible organization, and local data storage, FlexiNote supports users who want to capture and manage thoughts without disrupting their browsing workflow.

Contextual Note-Taking Workflow

This group focuses on capturing information at the exact moment and location it appears online, reducing friction between reading and note-taking.

Customization & Visual Control

These features help users adapt notes visually and behaviorally to different tasks, screen sizes, and attention levels.

Organization & Prioritization

Designed to keep growing notes manageable through structure, hierarchy, and importance signals.

Navigation & Management

Provides centralized visibility and control over all notes created across websites.

Privacy & Local Data Handling

Ensures notes remain private, offline, and fully under user control.

FlexiNote allows users to create notes directly on any webpage, anchoring them to the page URL. When revisiting the site, notes automatically reappear in the same context, making it easier to resume work or recall earlier insights.

Customization options such as background colors, resizing, and opacity control help visually separate different types of notes and reduce distraction during reading. Pin mode keeps important notes visible while scrolling, while minimize mode collapses notes into small floating bubbles to preserve screen space.

Organizational tools allow notes to be grouped into hierarchical categories like Work, Personal, or Ideas. Importance levels — from Low to Critical — add another layer of prioritization, helping users quickly identify what requires attention.

A centralized dashboard acts as a control center where all notes can be viewed, searched, edited, or accessed via deep links. This makes it easier to manage notes created across multiple websites without revisiting each page individually.

All data is stored locally in the browser using local storage. FlexiNote does not transmit information externally, collect usage data, or rely on cloud synchronization, supporting a privacy-first workflow.

FlexiNote is implemented as a Google Chrome browser extension.
Notes, categories, and user preferences are stored using browser local storage.
The extension operates fully offline and does not require account creation or network communication.

FlexiNote fits naturally into research-heavy browsing, online learning, and everyday planning tasks. By keeping notes close to the content that inspired them and maintaining full local control, it supports users who value clarity, continuity, and privacy during web-based work.
