Connect Glasp to Claude and ChatGPT as an MCP server. Search your highlights and memories in natural language, right inside your AI assistant. Read-only and private to you.
📌 Hi Product Hunt 👋
Glasp cofounder here!
🚀 Today, we're launching the MCP Connector for Glasp 🙌
🔌 What is the MCP Connector?
It connects your Glasp account to Claude, ChatGPT, Claude Code, and any MCP-compatible AI tool. Ask "what did I save about deep work?" and get your own highlighted passages back, with their sources, right inside the chat you already use. It's read-only and private to you. It can read your own highlights and memories, and nothing else.
🕰️ Story behind Glasp
10 years ago, Kazuki, the co-founder of Glasp, was diagnosed with a subdural hematoma that suddenly paralyzed the left side of his body, and his doctor told him that he could go into cardiopulmonary arrest at any moment. He managed to survive through emergency surgery, but when he was confronted with the reality that he might disappear from this world, he remembers feeling an inexpressible sense of fear and frustration welling up from the bottom of his body.
At the same time, he was struck by the desire to prove that he existed in this world and that his life had meaning, and the urge to leave something useful behind for the world while he was still alive to feel a sense of contribution to humanity.
📚What is Glasp?
Glasp is a social web highlighter that people can use to highlight and organize quotes and thoughts from the web without switching back and forth between screens and accessing other like-minded people's learning simultaneously.
Our mission is to democratize access to other people's learning and experiences that they have collected throughout their lives as a utilitarian legacy. As Glasp stands for "Greatest Legacy Accumulated as Shared Proof", we want to visualize your contribution to human knowledge history.
Besides the MCP Connector:
✅ Talk with your AI Clone built from your highlights and notes 🧠
✅ Sync all your highlights and notes from Kindle eBooks: 📚
✅ Get daily highlight reviews for free!
✅ Highlight text & image on the web: 🔴 🟡 🟢 🔵
✅ Highlight and summarize YouTube videos, web pages, and PDF files!
✅ Highlight & annotate PDF files ✍️
✅ Discover more useful content from other curators: 🤝
... and many more!
We're excited for the Product Hunt community to check it out and would love to get any feedback to improve Glasp!
🧭 What's Coming Up Next:
- More MCP tools (filters by source, date, and tags)
- Support for more MCP-compatible clients
- Improved AI Clone & Learning Memory
- Improved UX = UI updates + bug fix
Let's highlight the world's information and make it universally accessible and useful together!
Happy learning,
Kei
Thanks so much for checking out Glasp MCP Connector!
We built this to make your own highlights and notes instantly searchable inside Claude and ChatGPT, so you don’t have to leave the conversation or dig through tools to find what you’ve already saved. It’s read‑only and private to you, so your knowledge stays safe while still being super accessible.
We’d love to hear how you use it and what kind of workflows you’d like to build on top of it. Your feedback will really help us shape the next iterations. 🙌
using this to pull highlights I've saved on articles straight into claude when I'm researching something, instead of copy-pasting quotes back and forth. it's read-only which actually makes me trust it more for something touching my notes, and setup was just connecting the account and it worked on the first try.
What needs improvement
would like a way to scope which highlights get pulled in per conversation, right now it feels like it's all or nothing and not every chat needs my whole highlight history in context.
vs Alternatives
before this I was just manually exporting glasp highlights to a markdown file and dropping that into the chat, which worked but meant my notes were always a version behind whatever I'd actually highlighted that day.
