Abstract
Systems and methods are provided for interactively highlighting a region as pixel data on a screen and automatically retrieving context data associated with content of the highlighted region for contextual notetaking. The highlighted region includes at least a part of one or more windows and one or more applications associated with the one or more windows. The disclosed technology determines a context associated with content of the highlighted region and automatically retrieves context data that are contextually relevant to the content. Notes data are generated based on an aggregate of the highlighted content, window-specific context data, application-specific context data, and user-specific context data. A notetaking application retrieves stored the notes data from a notes database and displays the notes data for recall and for use. The contextual notetaking enables the user reducing a burden of performing manual operations for notetaking and utilizing notes that are enriched relevant data by context.
