I loved Papier by @lucchaissac and the Muxu.Muxu team. Thank you @christophepas @calyhre and the Slite team for this alternative 👌 I love the clean UI, and as a Slite user, this product is one step forward more focus at work.
this is essentially how I use workflowy. I need to have a "work log" by my side to quickly jot down ideas, tasks, notes, etc.
Great idea.. for those that already has a new tab extension they use (cough.. producthunt..) is a toolbar version possible?
@mikaelvinding The active tab extension should be the last one you activate. Draft is available via it's own icon from the toolbar too, so you could de-active the current tab extension you like, install Draft, re-activate the previous one and voilà!

@caleblenoir We are working on it ;) And on the next Safari also, as they will officially support WebExtensions.
This is my latest secret productivity hack. Thanks a lot guys for pushing this live.
Using it to remind me of my daily todos while browsing or to take quick last minute notes during calls.
Super handy!
Any way to make this a Safari extension? I'd use this in a heartbeat, but I switched to Safari recently.
@rhlsthrm Apple recent announcement to support WebExtensions specs will make it possible in the future
How obvious! I had given up other inferior alternatives to fill the need, so thank you. Very clean and so practical! Kudos to the team!
That's an awesome idea! Anything that removes barriers and friction from taking notes is a plus in my book.
@labudis thanks Tadas! That's indeed the goal of this extension :) Btw I'm making great usage of Prodsight so far ;)
Hi everyone 👋
A few months back during a team retreat, Lead Engineer @calyhre & @arnaudrinquin built a Chrome extension that turns new tabs into a beautiful editor.
When we returned from Lisbon, roadmap and product priorities took over and we never got around to officially releasing it.
Since then, a few of us have been using it every day for our quick notes and ideas. Last week, we decided it was about time everyone got to enjoy it too.
So, we're very excited to introduce Draft, our Chrome extension. Next time you need to capture thoughts or to-dos, just pop open a new tab—no need to be a Slite user.
When you're done, you can share them with your team by saving them your Slite workspace.
@arnaudrinquin @laure_albouy I'm so happy it's finally out! 🥳 I've been using it constantly while working on it as a pet-project for over a year now. It usually contains my todo list for the day, plus some random thoughts, reminders, and other drafts.
Let me know if you have suggestions or comments, I'd love to know how you are using it!
@calyhre @arnaudrinquin @laure_albouy Hey, I think it's a great extension! There was one thing I liked less so though. To save a draft I need a Slite account. Which I think is understandable (it's you main product).
In any case, I made a short breakdown of walking through your product.
Check it out if you're curious about a user test! :) 👇
@calyhre @arnaudrinquin @askjibran wow thanks for this breakdown! super useful :)
just in case it wasn't clear: your draft is auto-saved even if you close your tab!
@calyhre @arnaudrinquin @laure_albouy Been enjoying it. But wish that you could sync the new tab across devices (and that the Trello embed didn't have so much empty space around it).
I got turned off by having to make a whole Slite account, Slite page, AND Slite team/channel for me to save documents.
Thought it was a quick way to take distraction-free notes, which it still kinda is, but I will end up in a distracted mode when I want the notes again.
Don't think I'll use this over Google Docs, unfortuantely.
thanks for your feedback @martinsanton. Once you've created your Slite account you can organize all your notes and also get an access to them on mobile but it's true it's a different usage :)
It would be really cool if there was some sort of integration with a notion page. They look very similar after all.
