Save & research
Study together online, on the page you’re reading
Open the article your group is revising from. Everyone’s highlights show up on the same page as they’re made, and each one is saved in your Spot with a link back to where it came from.
SPOT runs in Chrome on your computer.
On the paper, together
Highlight the lines that matter
Select a sentence and press Highlight. Everyone in your group sees it on the page as you make it.
Discuss it on the source
Pin a comment next to the line or the chart you mean. The question stays where it belongs, for everyone in your Spot.
Keep every source
Each highlight is saved in your Spot’s Activity with a link back to the page it came from.
How it works
1.Add SPOT to Chrome
Free from the Chrome Web Store.
2.Make a Spot for your group
Send your study group the invite link.
3.Open what you’re reading
When your group is on the same page, you see each other there.
Questions?
Can we talk while we study?
Yes. Hit Join to voice chat with your group on the page you’re reading. Voice is never recorded.
Where do our highlights go?
They stay on the page, and your Spot’s Activity lists them all with a link back to each source.
Who can see what I add?
In your Spot, only the people in it. Outside a Spot you’re in the page’s public space, where anyone with SPOT on that page can see it.
Do my friends need SPOT too?
Yes. Everyone adds SPOT to Chrome once, for free. Then any page you all open is a place to meet.
Does it work on every website?
Almost all of them, from YouTube to your favorite shop. Chrome doesn’t let extensions run on its own pages, like the new tab page or the Chrome Web Store.
