Comment Anywhere: Browser Extension for Annotating

A browser extension allowing users to comment, highlight, and annotate on any website, enabling websites with public or private discussion layers.

What is Comment Anywhere?

Comment Anywhere is a browser extension available for Chrome, Firefox, and Safari that enables users to comment, highlight text, and annotate on top of existing websites without needing access to the backend code. It essentially adds a discussion layer on top of any site.

Once installed, users can select text on a webpage and add public or private comments. They can also highlight portions of text in different colors. All annotations are saved and synced across devices. The extension includes options for threading discussions, liking, disliking or flagging comments, filtering by user, and more.

Comment Anywhere aims to facilitate discussions and shared understanding on informational sites. It fosters community engagement and lets users curate an interactive experience on sites they frequent. Website owners can also embed the extension to officially support discussions through Comment Anywhere.

Use cases include students or colleagues annotating online articles or documents to discuss them, website owners enabling public comments on their published content, or readers publicly leaving feedback on pages. The service is free for individuals and personal use. Paid plans with more controls and analytics are available for publishers and enterprises.
