# Saving from the Web

> Capture anything visual from the web — or upload your own — into one searchable library that grows with you.

Saving an inspiration adds an image — along with its source link, title, and metadata — to your Memo library. Every inspiration shows up instantly in your dashboard and stays there, ready to be tagged, organized, [analyzed](/save-organize/analyzing-images), or sent into [Studio](/studio/overview).

The philosophy: **save first, organize later.** Friction at save time means a smaller library. Capture liberally, sort in batches.

## From the web (browser extension)

1. Install the Memo browser extension
2. Sign in once
3. On any webpage, click the **Memo** button in your browser toolbar
4. Memo grabs the image — along with the title, source URL, and creator info when available
5. The inspiration appears immediately in your dashboard

**Right-click an image** to save that specific image instead of the page's default.

The extension auto-detects the source platform — Instagram, X, LinkedIn, TikTok, YouTube — and tags it with a small badge on the card.

## By uploading a file

Drag an image from your desktop onto the dashboard grid, or click **Add inspiration**. Memo uploads, processes, and adds it to the grid. Exported designs, Figma screenshots, photos you've taken — the system treats them all the same.

## What happens after you save

The card appears instantly. In the background, Memo:

* Runs the image through vision analysis and replaces the title and description with a clean, descriptive 5–8 word title and a 1–2 sentence summary
* Detects the social platform if applicable and shows a badge
* Records who saved it and when
* Stores the source URL so you can always get back to the original

You'll see a brief shimmer placeholder for a second or two while enrichment runs, then the real content fills in. If enrichment fails, the original scraped title stays.

## The detail modal

Click any card to open a full-screen view — image on the left, detail panel on the right.

### Title and description

The top of the panel shows the enriched title and description. Both are **click-to-edit** for editors and admins — click, type, press Enter or click outside to save. Press Escape to cancel.

### Details tab

* **Source URL** — clickable link back to the original
* **Added by** — contributor avatar, with a "Claim" button if the inspiration was saved without a creator
* **Tags** — quick add and remove

### Analyze tab

Switch here to run deep analysis (\~1 credit). Full breakdown in [Analyzing Images](/save-organize/analyzing-images).

### Action buttons

Below the panel:

* **Open source link** — new tab to the original
* **Send to Studio** — creates a new Studio project pre-loaded with this inspiration
* **Save as Style Reference** — creates a brand asset from the inspiration, auto-triggers analysis if missing, saves extracted colors to your Brand Kit
* **Delete** — removes the inspiration (editors and admins only)

The top bar has a **Download** button that actually downloads the file — Memo handles the cross-origin blob fetch so you get the file, not a new browser tab.

## Deduplication

Memo deduplicates by source URL. Saving the same page twice updates the existing record instead of creating a duplicate.

## Tips

* **Install the extension on day one.** The value compounds as your library grows.
* **Don't organize as you save.** Tags and Spaces can be added in batch later.
* **Save your own work too.** The system treats uploads and web saves identically.

## Troubleshooting

**The extension button is greyed out.**
You're probably signed out. Click the extension icon and sign back in.

**My inspiration shows a broken image.**
The source page may have removed the image, or it's behind authentication. Try saving again from a fresh page load.

**I don't see what I just saved.**
Refresh the dashboard. If it still doesn't appear, check your filters — a tag or contributor filter may be hiding it, or the search box may be narrowing the view.
