Stop Copy-Pasting, Start Automating Directly From Your Browser

Stop copy-pasting web content; Webhook Sidebar sends analysis prompts and page data directly to your automations, right from your browser. No Chats.

Ever felt stuck trying to get information off a webpage and into your tools? Maybe it's client data locked in a system with no API, like a medical team I worked with who needed info from PHI charts to trigger follow-ups without exposing sensitive data. Manually copying and pasting was slow, risky, and painful.

That's why Webhook Sidebar exists. It cuts out the copy-paste shuffle entirely.

Webhook Sidebar: Your Universal Web Clipper for Workflows

Think of it as a direct line from any webpage to your favorite automation platform (Make, Zapier, n8n, etc.) or even your own custom tools. It bridges the gap when there's no easy way to export or connect.

It's refreshingly simple:

  1. Select What You Need: Highlight specific text on the page. If you want the main content of the whole page, just don't select anything.
  2. Tell It What to Do: Type a quick instruction (your "prompt") into the sidebar, like "Summarize this," "Create Asana task," or "Add to CRM notes." It even remembers recent prompts so you can quickly reuse them.
  3. Pick Your Destination: Choose the right webhook from your saved list using the dropdown. You can set up multiple webhooks, maybe one for summarizing, one for saving links, one for triggering complex AI workflows.
  4. Hit Send: That's it!

What Happens Next? (Your Magic)

The extension instantly sends three key things as a neat JSON package to the webhook URL you selected:

  • Your prompt: So your workflow knows the specific task.
  • The page_markdown: The text you selected (or the whole page), automatically cleaned up into simple Markdown bullet points – much easier for tools to handle than raw HTML.
  • The page url: So your workflow always knows the source context.

From there, your backend workflow takes over. Because it receives clean data and your specific instruction, you can build powerful automations:

  • Get AI Insights: Send text to OpenAI/Gemini via Make/Zapier to get summaries, extract keywords, draft replies, or ask follow-up questions, with the result appearing back in the sidebar.
  • Populate Your Tools: Automatically create tasks in Todoist/Asana, add notes to Notion/Airtable/your CRM, or save research links to Google Sheets, complete with the source URL.
  • Translate on the Fly: Highlight text, prompt "Translate to Spanish," and get the translation back instantly.
  • Trigger Multi-Step Processes: Kick off complex workflows involving data lookups, conditional logic, or multiple AI agent steps, all triggered from a simple action in your browser.

Why This Beats Copy-Pasting:

  • Stay Focused: No more switching tabs and losing your train of thought. Analyze and act right where you are.
  • Clean & Consistent Data: Your workflows get predictable Markdown text + URL every time.
  • Super Flexible: Connects to basically anything that can receive a webhook. You build the logic you need.
  • Privacy-Minded: The extension itself doesn't track you. It only sends the data you choose to the endpoints you configure.

Stop letting valuable web data stay locked behind manual copy-paste routines. Connect your browser directly to the power of your automations with Webhook Sidebar.
