What is Evernote Web Clipper?
Evernote Web Clipper is the official browser extension for Evernote, one of the longest-running note-taking apps (launched in 2008, now owned by Bending Spoons). It saves web content directly into your Evernote account: full pages, simplified article views with ads and sidebars stripped out, selected portions of a page, or screenshots you can annotate with highlights, text, and markup. Each clip can be given a title, assigned to a notebook, and tagged before saving, and the original URL is preserved alongside the content. The Chrome version has around 2 million users, a 4.7-star rating from over 129,000 reviews, and remains actively maintained (updated July 2026). It is compatible with all major browsers but requires an Evernote account.

Pricing
The Web Clipper extension itself is free, but it saves into Evernote, whose free plan is now heavily restricted: 50 notes, 1 notebook, 1 device, and 1GB of storage. Paid plans start with Starter (1,000 notes, 3 devices, 5GB) and go up to Advanced (unlimited notes, devices, and storage) at roughly $14.99/mo, with an Enterprise tier via sales. Paid plans offer a 7-day trial.
Best for
Existing Evernote subscribers who want to funnel web research, articles, and annotated screenshots straight into their notebooks. Less compelling as a standalone tool if you are not already invested in Evernote.
Pros
- Mature, actively maintained extension with 2M+ Chrome users and a 4.7-star rating
- Multiple clip formats: full page, simplified article, selection, and screenshot
- Built-in screenshot annotation with highlights, text, and markup
- Organize at clip time with notebooks, tags, and titles
Cons
- Only saves to Evernote — no export to Markdown, other apps, or your own storage
- Evernote's free plan is severely limited (50 notes, 1 device, 1 notebook), so real use effectively requires a ~$14.99/mo subscription
- Clips are locked into Evernote's proprietary note format, making later migration to other tools harder

FAQ
Is Evernote Web Clipper free?
The extension is free to install and use, but it requires an Evernote account. The free Evernote plan caps you at 50 notes on 1 device, so heavy clipping realistically requires a paid plan (~$14.99/mo for Advanced).
Where does Evernote Web Clipper save content?
Everything is saved into your Evernote account. At clip time you can pick a notebook, add tags, and set a title; the clip keeps the source URL, images, and page content.
Does Evernote Web Clipper work with Firefox?
Evernote says the Web Clipper is compatible with all major browsers, and it is distributed through the Chrome Web Store (where it has about 2 million users) as well as other browsers' extension stores.
Can Evernote Web Clipper take screenshots?
Yes. It can capture screenshots of a page and lets you annotate them before saving, adding highlights, text, and other markup, in addition to full-page and simplified article clips.
