Save people from the web to your Notion contacts

Virgile Gouala
After this: a People database in Notion that builds itself as you browse. Name, role, and company captured from any page. Free plan.

You read about someone interesting. You want to remember who they are and where you found them. Most tools give you a link. A link tells you nothing about the person six months later.

Filed captures the person, not just the URL. Name, role, and company land in Notion alongside the source.

How it works

On any profile page or article where a person is the subject: press ⌘⇧Y with the People workflow selected, or right-click and choose "Save as People." Filed extracts the structured contact data and creates an entry in your Notion People database.

Properties created in the People database
  • Name (from the page)
  • Role / Title
  • Company / Organization
  • URL (the source page)
  • Saved date

When this is most useful

Reading industry coverage: save the author. Conference research: save speakers before attending. Sourcing: save candidates as you read their writing. Following founders: save them from press articles instead of losing them in open tabs.

The People database is pre-built by Filed. You don't design the schema.

The issue isn't saving less. It's saving to the right place with enough context to act later.

What the database looks like

Sort by Company to group contacts. Sort by Saved date to see recent additions. The source URL is always attached, so you can return to the original article with one click.

The People workflow is included in the free plan.
