In additions to being a knowledge and information database, DEVONthink has built-in web browsing capabilities. This allows you to browse and capture online information directly in a database.

Whenever you select a bookmark, DEVONthink loads the online content in the view/edit. You can navigate between pages and sites, just as you do in your browser. However, unlike your browser, you can immediately clip and capture to your database. From the Tools > Capture menu or the button, choose the format of your choice and the document will appear in the current group. You can also use DEVONthink's Clip to DEVONthink just as if you were in an external browser. You can also select, then drag and drop content from the loaded page directly into your groups, the Sorter, etc.

In the Scripts > Tabs menu, you will find the Open Google script. This opens a new window or tab with Google loaded and ready to search. Where you go from there is up to you.

Since this is an actual browser view, another powerful option is accessing online cloud accounts. For example, you could log into your Dropbox account and manage things without leaving the application. That includes adding files to it. Grab a file in the Finder, then drag and drop it into the loaded page in DEVONthink. And to extend that idea even further, leave the browser open, switch to another DEVONthink window, then grab a document and drag and drop it between DEVONthink windows to upload it!

With its integrated, document-based web browser, DEVONthink can also be used as a bookmark manager. Organize your bookmarks wherever they're needed, from a collection of them to grouping them with other documents. You can even import bookmarks from some of the popular browsers.
