FloatPad
Your notes. Your prompts.
Always one click away.
FloatPad is a floating notepad for Chrome. Keep the text you use every day in one place, find it in a second, and drop it into any text box on any site.
Opens with Alt+X on any page · Works offline · Your notes stay on your computer
Everything you type twice,
saved once.
FloatPad sits on top of the page you're working in. No new tabs, no copying from a doc somewhere else.
A notepad that floats over any page
Press Alt+X or click the toolbar icon and FloatPad opens on top of whatever you're doing: ChatGPT, Gmail, a support ticket, a form. Press it again and it's gone.
- Works on every website
- Drag it where you like, minimise it when you don't need it
- Light and dark mode

Press minimise and FloatPad shrinks into a small floating button that sits in the corner of your screen. Drag it anywhere it is out of your way, and click it to open the full pad again.
- Stays on top of every page

Hover for your recent prompts
You don't even need to open the pad. Hover over the floating button and your most recent prompts slide out beside it. Click one, or press the insert arrow, and it goes straight into the text box you're typing in.

Privacy policy
Last updated: October 27, 2026
FloatPad is built to keep your text on your device. This policy explains what the extension does and doesn't do with your information.
Your saved notes
Everything you save in FloatPad is stored in your browser's local storage on your own computer. We don't run servers that receive it, and we can't see it.
Text from images
When you read text from an image, FloatPad takes a screenshot of the visible tab, crops it to the area you selected and reads it with a text reader bundled inside the extension. This happens entirely on your computer. The screenshot is kept in memory only for that one request and deleted straight after (within 30 seconds). It is never saved or uploaded.
Website access
FloatPad asks to run on all websites so the pad can open and insert text in any text box you choose. It only reads a page when you use it: to insert text, to check for a number code you typed, or to grab text from an area you selected. It doesn't track your browsing or collect page content.
Payments
If you buy Pro, payment is handled by ExtensionPay and Stripe. They receive your email address and payment details to process the purchase. FloatPad only checks with ExtensionPay whether your account has paid. We never see your card number. See the Stripe privacy policy and ExtensionPay privacy policy.
