ICYMI, Mexico, casually unboxed Aliens this week. The alleged bodies of two “non-human beings” were unboxed during a congressional hearing in Mexico, fueling the fire of Alien weirdness in 2023. One thing was missing, though, the satisfaction of taking off the shrink wrap.

If you’re anything like us, you probably have stacks of screenshots filling up your phone and computer’s storage. Go check, we can wait. 

In our daily lives, we are exposed to so much information overload, and sometimes the only seemingly sensible route to organize it all is to screenshot and refer back to later. But that can get out of hand, and what was supposed to be a handy way to collect valuable information turns into clutter. 

Enter Trickle. 

Trickle exists to make screenshots better and reclaim their value. The tool helps you summarize and organize screenshots so you can clear your photo storage and, at the same time, it uses AI to extract insights. Take your stack of screenshots, upload them to Trickle, and it will generate a digest for each one packed with learnings from the image. It then stores your newly evolved screenshots for easy searching.

You might think, “huh, I’ve heard of Trickle before”, and you probably did. It initially launched as an all-in-one team collaboration software but according to the Co-Founder and CEO Jarod Xu, the team decided to change tack after “A mix of eagerness and anxiety led us astray, causing us to clutter Trickle with too many "productivity" features, making it bulky.”

From there, the team focused on solving one problem at a time. So if you’re constantly screenshotting and forgetting, it might be time to…
