Features Tooltivity's expert score for the 'Features' aspect of each extension. | 9.0 Save to Notion offers a comprehensive set of features that make it easy to save and organize web content. The ability to highlight, tag, and organize content directly ensures that you can easily find the content you need later. ![]() Another very useful feature is the screenshot function. Either the entire page or just a desired part is screenshotted and then a description is immediately added, which is saved directly in the desired page on Notion. ![]() The support for templates and batch saving may not be intuitive to set up at first, but it saves the user a lot of time when saving similar information. | 9.2 The functional scope of GPT Reader is designed for a wide range of users and demonstrated many useful functions in the test. The voice quality is surprisingly good and offers a natural-sounding output. We particularly liked the comprehensive format support, which seamlessly processes everything from PDFs to web content. The control of the playback is also well implemented, making it easy to adjust the speed directly and individually. However, the function for downloading audio files stood out the most in the test. In theory, entire books can be converted and then downloaded as audio books. However, this was the only area where we had to make deductions, as the free ChatGPT version had limitations when processing longer texts or documents. Winner in this category |
Performance Tooltivity's expert score for the 'Performance' aspect of each extension. | 8.5 The extension works perfectly. In our tests, the information is saved quickly and synchronized across devices. However, some users write in their reviews about occasional performance problems, especially when logging in and synchronizing. Winner in this category | 8.3 The performance tests showed a mixed picture. For shorter texts and paragraphs, GPT Reader processes content quickly and delivers a smooth rendering. The application is fast and reliable for typical use cases such as articles or short documents. Here we tested self-written summaries for learning purposes. However, we encountered significant limitations with larger files, as it is not possible to complete processing due to the limited number of requests. The option of pausing and then resuming would help here. In addition, the process takes a very long time for larger files; the extension needed around 40 minutes for around 75 pages of a PDF. The limitations of the ChatGPT API particularly affect the processing of longer documents such as entire books. This is currently only possible with a premium version of ChatGPT. |
Design Tooltivity's expert score for the 'Design' aspect of each extension. | 8.0 The Save to Notion design is clearly laid out. In our opinion, it could only be a little more intuitive when setting up templates for the first time. | 9.0 The design of GPT Reader is clean and professional, with an intuitive layout that makes navigation effortless. The fact that there is even a dark as well as a light mode shows that the different user preferences have been taken into account. The controls are logically arranged and easily accessible. Even though the extension is designed for functionality, the design is not forgotten. Winner in this category |
Value for Money Tooltivity's expert score for the 'Value for Money' aspect of each extension. | 9.5 The free version of Save to Notion offers excellent value for money, and the premium plan, at $36 a year, offers additional features at a reasonable price for those needing advanced functionality. Especially compared to Notion's official extension “Notion Web Clipper” we tested, you get a lot of features here. Winner in this category | 8.9 Currently, GPT Reader offers a very good price-performance ratio, as all functions are available completely free of charge. We found no hidden costs or unexpected limitations in the free version. ![]() At the moment, however, it is a very good offer in the text-to-speech sector. |
Ease of Use Tooltivity's expert score for the 'Ease of Use' aspect of each extension. | 7.8 The extension is easy to set up and use. Only the creation of templates can be a little confusing for some users at first. If you are already a Notion user, this should not be a problem. Some users also report login problems, but this was not the case in our test. | 8.7 In terms of user-friendliness, GPT Reader scores very well. Users of all technical levels should have little problem simply converting text to audio. The user interface is self-explanatory, and all functions are displayed immediately. Winner in this category |
Security & Privacy Tooltivity's expert score for the 'Security & Privacy' aspect of each extension. | 8.5 Save to Notion uses industry standard security measures to protect user data. As with any online service, you should be aware that all saved data is stored with another third-party provider in addition to Notion via the extension. | 9.7 In our security analysis, GPT Reader showed a strong commitment to protecting user privacy. The extension only collects data from user-reported bugs and feedback. We appreciated the transparent privacy policy, where the user can read specific points. Winner in this category |
Conclusion A summary of our findings and final thoughts for each extension. | Save to Notion is a great tool for anyone wanting to save and organize information and increase productivity. For anyone who works with Notion, we think it's a must-have. This is simply due to the ease of saving highlights and screenshots in one click. Although users report occasional problems with logging in, these did not occur during our tests. In our opinion, the overall performance with the price-performance ratio is currently the best for Notion users.
| GPT Reader is a promising text-to-speech extension based on ChatGPT voices. The easy-to-understand voices, combined with the fact that it is completely free, set it apart from conventional TTS tools. The extension can process various document formats. Both PDFs and copied web articles can be converted, but it has its limitations with longer texts. For example, a 300-page PDF was only partially converted in the text due to ChatGPT's limitations, which still resulted in about 2 hours of audio. The tool is very user-friendly and supports multiple languages. This extension is a must for anyone who wants to listen to texts. |
