  1. kindle-notes-parser

    GUI and command line to separate automatically the kindle clippings

    The app looks beautiful, though I don't have apple systems.

    On a related note, I built a kindle notes parser, which splits the highlights and transforms them into markdown.

    My workflow is to dump my highlights into obsidian and build flashcards on top of that.

    The app is open source:

  3. Klib

    Klib, a new way to manage Kindle highlights and notes on macOS. Export Kindle highlights to Evernote. (by toolinbox)

    You can; the author just hasn't implemented it. Import directly from your [Amazon account](https://klib.me) is supported in Klib.

  4. obsidian-kindle-plugin

    Sync your Kindle notes and highlights directly into your Obsidian vault

    Have you looked at https://github.com/hadynz/obsidian-kindle-plugin

    Works pretty well for me.
