How to use LinkGaze
Learn the full workflow: save links from web, desktop browsers, and Android; understand Smart Context Cards, Cross-Save Insight, topic filters, collections, and sharing.
Quick start checklist
Paste a URL from the dashboard, use the browser extension, or share from Android.
LinkGaze fetches the page, extracts readable content, and prepares summaries and context.
Read the gist words, main takeaway, key points, source signals, topics, and notes.
Use Cross-Save Insight to see related saves, why they overlap, and what each source adds.
Ways to save
Capture links from the workflow you already use.
Use the dashboard for manual saves, the extension for desktop browsing, Android sharing on mobile, and copy-paste as a reliable fallback.
Save from the dashboard
Open your dashboard, click Save URL, paste a link, optionally add a note, then submit.
Open dashboardSave from the browser extension
Install the Chrome or Firefox package, sign in to LinkGaze in the same browser profile, then save the current tab from the toolbar.
Download extensionSave from Android mobile
Install LinkGaze to your Android home screen, then use the Android share sheet to send pages to LinkGaze.

If a share flow is unavailable, copy the URL, open LinkGaze, and use Save URL manually.
Open saved itemsReading saved links
Use each context card as your memory layer.
After enrichment finishes, every saved item becomes easier to understand, trust, connect, and find again.
Smart Context Card
Use gist words, the main takeaway, key points, and “why this matters” to remember the value of a page quickly.
Source signals
Check the domain, publisher, source type, canonical URL, author hints, and quality indicators before trusting a page.
Topics, entities, and filters
Use detected topics and named entities to jump into focused library views instead of broad keyword search.
Cross-Save Insight
Look for related saved items, relatedness reasons, overlap, unique value, and authoritative links.
Organize your library
Turn saved links into a useful system.
LinkGaze works best when your saved links are grouped, annotated, and easy to revisit.
- 1Use notes to record why you saved a page, not just what the page says.
- 2Archive links you no longer need in your active library, instead of deleting them immediately.
- 3Create collections for projects, topics, research threads, competitors, tools, or reading lists.
- 4Publish a collection only when it is ready to explain a topic to someone else.

Troubleshooting
Common issues and quick fixes.
Most problems are caused by auth state, unsupported browser pages, or mobile share-sheet limitations.
A saved link is still processing
Wait a little longer and refresh. Some pages take more time to fetch, extract, summarize, or enrich.
The extension says you are not signed in
Open LinkGaze in the same browser profile as the extension and sign in again.
Android share does not show LinkGaze
Make sure LinkGaze is installed to the Android home screen. If it still does not appear, use copy and paste.
A page cannot be saved
Browser-internal pages, local files, private pages, and some blocked URLs cannot be captured by the extension.
