The web is your canvas.

This page is a webpage too. Pick up the pencil at the bottom of the screen and draw on it — the same way inkwell works everywhere else.

Features

Six things it does well.

  • A Wikipedia article with a heading circled in ink, the annotation staying in place as the page scrolls.

    Scroll away.

    Your drawing stays where you put it, however far the page goes.

  • A drawing being copied from one webpage and pasted onto another browser tab.

    Copy pasta.

    Copy a drawing and paste it onto another tab, or another site.

  • A scribble on a webpage being dragged to a new position with inkwell's select tool.

    Move things around.

    Drag one line, or grab a few and move the whole doodle at once.

  • A rainbow drawn across an illustration on a Wikipedia article using inkwell's colour picker.

    Every colour.

    The whole rainbow, not a fixed set of six.

  • inkwell's brush panel open on a webpage, showing brush size and transparency controls.

    One brush to rule them all.

    Change the size and the transparency as you go.

  • A long freehand line drawn across a webpage, smoothed out by inkwell as it is drawn.

    Smoothest lines.

    Drawing with a mouse is hard. We even out the wobble.

inkwell is for drawing.

How can inkwell help?

  • It lets me add mustaches to photos, which is instant amusement. My go-to tool for injecting fun into everyday life.
  • It keeps sensitive data hidden when I take screenshots. I can conceal personal or financial information quickly.
  • I can't get enough of it during video calls. I draw and scribble on the screen — like a mini art studio right there while we're talking.
  • I use it to highlight important information and make notes on web pages.
