What is a Glasp AI clone?

A Glasp AI clone is a model that answers from the passages you highlighted and the notes you wrote, instead of from the open web. There is no training step: it assembles from what you keep and sharpens as your library grows. Every clone has a public page at glasp.co/ask/your-username, so other people can ask it a question without an account — and you can ask theirs. Free monthly quota, no credit card.

How your clone gets built

  1. 01

    Highlight as you read

    Every passage you keep from an article, a PDF, a YouTube video or a Kindle book becomes part of what your clone knows.

  2. 02

    Your clone assembles itself

    No training step and no setup. The clone is built from your highlights and notes, and it gets sharper the more you keep.

  3. 03

    Ask it anything

    Ask it what you thought about a topic, what your sources said, or what to read next — and share it so other people can ask too.

What you get

The difference between a chatbot and a clone is the input

It knows what you actually read

A general model knows the internet. Your clone knows the four hundred passages you personally decided were worth keeping, and the notes you wrote next to them. That is a much smaller and much more useful corpus.

  • Answers point back at the source they came from
  • Gets sharper as your library grows
  • Nothing to configure or fine-tune

Fed by everything you highlight

Web articles, PDFs, YouTube videos with timestamps, and Kindle books you import all feed the same clone, so it does not have a blind spot the shape of whichever app you were using that week.

Publish it, or keep it to yourself

Share your clone and anyone can ask it a question without signing up. Or mark highlights private and keep the whole thing between you and your reading.

Bring highlights over from Kindle, Instapaper, Medium, Hypothesis, Weava and more, so the clone starts from years of reading rather than from today.

What readers say

  • I love Glasp! I use it every time I read online articles. Highlighting with Glasp enforces me to actually read rather than scan through an article. I retain so much more info and can easily revisit my previously read articles to recall details and notes I've made.

  • I've researched every highlighting tool from Liner and Hypothesis to Instapaper and Pocket, and Glasp is the best hands-down. First, it creates a whole category of its own with social highlighting. This is important because it helps learners get recognized for finding amazing highlights, and it helps them connect with others who are learning the same thing at the same time. Also, it has the best highlighting workflow. While reading an article, you can select text in order to highlight and annotate without having to go to a different page. Furthermore, all of your highlights for a specific article appear on a right sidebar as you're reading, and they're easy to copy and paste into another note-taking app.

  • I used Instapaper but ended up hating it and stopped. There just wasn't a tool for me to continue using until Glasp. I was hooked immediately for the ease of use (highlight directly on the article web page), organized feed, and learning from others' highlights and notes. It makes sticking to learning something so easy and you can no longer find any excuses. Highly recommended to anyone who loves reading awesome articles or want to start forming such habit.

Frequently asked questions

What is an AI clone on Glasp?

An AI clone is a model that answers from your own highlights and notes rather than from the open web. It knows what you read, what you chose to keep, and what you wrote next to it, so its answers sound like your reading rather than like a search result.

How does the clone answer questions?

It draws on the passages you highlighted and the notes you attached, and points back at the sources it used. That means you can check an answer against the original article instead of trusting it.

Do I have to train it?

No. There is no training step and nothing to configure. Highlight as you normally would; the clone is built from what accumulates and improves as it grows.

Can I share my AI clone with other people?

Yes. Your clone has a public page at glasp.co/ask/your-username, so someone can ask it a question without an account. It is a far better answer to 'what do you think about X' than a link to a reading list.

Can I chat with other people's clones?

Yes. Glasp readers publish their clones, so you can ask a question of somebody whose reading you admire and see what their sources say. That is the part a private notes app cannot do.

What if I want to keep my reading private?

Any highlight can be marked private, and private highlights stay out of what other people can reach. Glasp Pro removes the limit on how many private highlights you can keep.

Is the AI clone free?

Yes. Every Glasp account includes a free monthly AI quota with no credit card. The pricing page has higher limits for heavy use.

Is my reading used to train public AI models?

No. Glasp does not sell your data and does not use your content to train public AI models. The privacy policy sets out how it is handled.

Can I use my highlights inside Claude or another AI tool?

Yes. The Glasp MCP connector exposes your highlights to Claude and other MCP clients, so they can answer using what you have saved.
