BatchGrab · Chrome extension

Every file on the page. Three clicks.

BatchGrab finds the PDFs, images, documents and archives on a page, or on many tabs, groups them by type and lets you tick what you want. Then it downloads everything through a reliable queue.

Features

Bulk downloading, done properly.

Finds every file

Links, images (the largest size), lazy-loaded images, audio and video files, on one page or across many tabs.

Filter what you want

By file type, name, domain or same-domain-only. Pro adds file size and regex. Duplicates are removed for you.

Rename with templates

Names like {num:3}-{name}.{ext} or {domain}/{title}/{name}.{ext}, with a live preview before you save.

Into folders

Save into folders inside your Downloads folder, named the way you choose.

A queue you control

Choose how many files download at once. Pause, resume, cancel, retry failed files. It survives a browser restart.

One ZIP (Pro)

Download everything as a single ZIP, with a list of any files that failed.

Works when you’re signed in

Files behind a login you’re already signed into download the way they do in your browser.

Private by design

Everything runs in your browser. No servers, no analytics, no tracking, no remote code.

How it works

From a page of links to a folder of files.

  1. 01

    Open it on a page

    Click the toolbar icon. BatchGrab reads the page only when you do, and lists what it finds grouped by type.

  2. 02

    Filter and tick

    Type chips with counts, a search box and a filters drawer. Select all, none or invert, then shift-click ranges.

  3. 03

    Name and save

    Pick a folder and a rename template, see the result, then download through the queue, or as one ZIP with Pro.

BatchGrab's output panel: a folder name, a rename template with token buttons and a live preview of the final file names.

Rename templates

Name your files before they land.

Type a template and see the final paths. This uses BatchGrab’s own tokens; a / makes a subfolder inside your Downloads folder, and characters Windows doesn’t allow are removed. Full templates and subfolders are part of Pro.

    Your privacy

    Your browsing stays on your device.

    On your device

    Scanning pages, filtering, renaming, queueing and building a ZIP all happen in your browser. Settings, presets and your last 20 batches are kept in Chrome’s extension storage, only on your computer.

    Never

    Analytics, tracking, remote code or third-party scripts. BatchGrab reads a page only when you ask, and requests access to all sites only for multi-tab scanning, size checks or ZIP.

    The one exception

    If you buy Pro, your licence key is sent to Gumroad to check it is valid. Payment is handled entirely by Gumroad; BatchGrab never sees your payment details. Read our privacy policy.

    FAQ

    Questions, answered.

    Something else? support@umbrellaweb.net

    Which sites does it work on?

    Any page that links to files directly: PDFs, images, documents, archives, audio and video files. It downloads direct file links found on the page.

    Can it download YouTube or streaming video?

    No. BatchGrab does not support YouTube, streaming (HLS/DASH) or DRM-protected media. Only download files you have the right to download.

    Why does it ask for access to all sites?

    Only if you choose to scan several tabs, check file sizes or build a ZIP, because those need to read or fetch from the sites you are on. You can decline and keep using the current tab.

    What happens to my browsing data?

    Nothing leaves your device. Settings, presets and your last 20 batches stay in Chrome’s extension storage on your computer.

    How does Pro work?

    You buy a licence key on Gumroad, one-time or monthly, and paste it into BatchGrab. The key is the only thing the extension sends anywhere: to Gumroad, to check it is valid. One key works on up to 5 installs.

    Do I lose anything if I stay on Free?

    No. Free keeps working with the limits above, and nothing is dropped silently: BatchGrab tells you when a limit applies.

    Tired of saving files one by one?

    BatchGrab is on its way to the Chrome Web Store. Ask for early access and we’ll write when it’s live.
