Web Content Saving

Saving various web content is the most prominent feature of remio, especially in the automatic mode. remio is the first tool that can save almost everything you ever accessed on the web, automatically, without any manual clicks through Auto-Save (Automatically save pages you visit).

This guide explains how remio identifies, filters, records, and structures web content—and how users can interact with the information that's been saved.

Why Auto-Capture is Important

Today, we obtain a vast amount of information from the web, including news, collaborative documents, emails, various SaaS software, and so on.

But this information slips away after we've seen it. Often, when we need it, we find that we have to spend a lot of time retrieving it again. Even today, many of our information sources only offer the most basic keyword search function, and they don't intelligently rank the content you've viewed at the top automatically. If you found the information on the fifth page of the search results at that time, you still have to flip to the fifth page to find it again. Many SaaS software takes a long time to reopen a page, even if you closed it less than five seconds ago.

If you've ever written a weekly report, you surely know what I'm talking about.

But we can think differently. What if there was a tool that could automatically save almost all the information you've accessed with high quality? When you need it, you can quickly retrieve it with keywords and ask. The content you've viewed would always be ranked at the very top instead of on the fifth page, and you'd never have to worry about the snail-like speed of many software applications again.

That is Auto-Save (Automatically save pages you visit) of remio, the feature that will relieve you of all the burden of saving materials and time-consuming, boring and frustrating process to just find something you have seen before.

Using Auto-Capture

To use the Auto-Save feature (Automatically save pages you visit), you need to turn on the Auto-Save option in the Settings of the browser extension.

After that, whenever you open a article-like web page, remio will automatically parse and save the main content of the current web page. If you've just installed the plugin, you should see a prompt from remio indicating that the web page content has been successfully saved.

• Where can I find the saved pages? You can see the saved pages in the remio desktop application by click Webpage from the left panel. You can also find the saved pages using Search or Ask.

• How can I confirm that the current page has been saved successfully?

  You can confirm that when you see a green check mark ✅ on the right floating bar of remio's Chrome extension.

• remio is smart to automatically save only the appropriate pages.

  remio has many built-in intelligent rules to save only the appropriate pages. Meaningless pages such as login, logout, signup, account, setting, auth, search box, index, dashboard, permissions, order, pay won't be saved. Pages with harmful or sensitive material are also excluded.

• How can I remove a saved page?

  If you think the content of the current web page is not suitable for saving (for example, you know the information on the current web page is incorrect), you can click the green check mark ✅ on right floating bar to remove the current page from remio.

• Enhanced Auto-Save Controls:

  You can quickly add sites to your Blacklist or Whitelist, or pause auto-saving for an hour when browsing certain sites. You can set these controls on the Setting page of the extension. When setting the blacklist, you can use the * character at the beginning or end to do a prefix or suffix matching. When you click the green check mark to delete the saved data of the current web page, the current web page will be automatically added to the Blacklist. In this way, the web page will not be saved automatically when you visit it again later.

Other Supported Content Types

• Online Documents: remio directly captures online documents opened in your browser (e.g., Google Docs), transforming them into searchable resources while retaining their original structure. We are continuously optimizing support for other popular platforms.

• AI Conversations (LLM Chats): remio can capture content from web-based AI conversations (e.g., ChatGPT), transforming these ephemeral dialogues into permanent, searchable notes within your local knowledge base. This ensures that valuable insights generated by AI interactions are preserved and utilized.

• YouTube Videos: remio automatically saves the subtitle files of YouTube videos. You can also quickly save the current video frame by clicking the remio icon below the video.

Using Highlighter and Web Page Comments

• Highlighting and Comments:

  Select text on any webpage; remio will automatically capture it and create a new note. All highlights and comments from the same page will be consolidated into a single note associated with that page's URL, keeping information organized. Your written comments will appear directly below the highlighted text.

• Saving Images:

  To save an image, move your mouse over the image on the webpage. A small "save" button will appear at the top right corner of the image. Click this button to add the image to the note. The image is saved into the same note for that page.

• Where can I find my highlight notes?

  You can find the notes in Later or the Knowledge Base page in the remio desktop application.
