Who needs the metaverse? The real world is looking up today too with a Rewind button for your life and TAGS that let you buy from anywhere.
First… ⚡️ CAT NIPS ⚡️

Rewind puts a master search on your Mac so you can find anything you’ve seen, said, or heard — even an action item you discussed on a Zoom meeting with your boss.
Recording is stored locally on your Mac. Yes, the maker (Dan Siroker, co-founder of Optimizely) has thought about compression. He told TechCrunch that Rewind wouldn’t even be possible with System on a Chip technology (i.e. Apple's M1 and M2).
“Seeing this in action is unreal” shares one commenter.
“What if instead of trying to get the world to your store, the world became the store?... No landing pages. No downloads. No hardware.”
That’s what founder Daniel Abas wrote when he launched TAGS out of stealth mode today, in step with announcing a $3.5 million pre-seed round.
TAGS let customers purchase “instantly” from any sort of media format — from social streaming to billboards — by skipping past long-winded websites and brand experiences where 75.7% of purchases are lost. Scanning a tag brings up a pre-loaded shopping cart and one-click functionality.
Another feature piquing the community’s interest is the “Save for later” integration, which sends customers a text message with a Link Tag so they can buy in one click when they’re ready. Abas also told Axios that TAGS has a “speak to buy” function in its roadmap too.
TAGS has already bagged customers like the LA Lakers and Foot Locker but further hopes its vision to be the “WiFi of eCommerce” will democratize the space and empower entrepreneurial generations.
