Hey, PH community! And thank you, Rohan, for the hunt! If you're already aboard the Trickle train or have followed our past launches, you may have noticed that we've made a significant pivot and are heading to a new path. Making this call wasn't easy. Over the past 18 months, a mix of eagerness and anxiety led us astray, causing us to clutter Trickle with too many "productivity" features, making it bulky. Now, we've taken a step back and decided to focus on only one problem. Now Trickle is designed for people who frequently snap screenshots for later use and struggle with managing and finding them from the depths of buried folders. With Trickle, your ever-growing collection of screenshots is effortlessly managed. Leveraging the latest OCR tech and the reasoning capabilities of GPT-4, turn your screenshots into "visual memos" that are both readable and searchable. Here's how Trickle works: - 📷 Snap or drop your screenshots into Trickle. - ✨ Delight in crisp AI-generated digests. - 🔍 Easily browse, search, and ask. But our aspirations go beyond this. Given that humans are naturally inclined to comprehend the world via visuals, continuously grasping fragmented info, we aim to harness visual captures and AI to enhance this fragmented info's collection, extraction, and utility. Screenshots stand as our first step in realizing this vision. Under this vision, our commitment is to: - Simplify and streamline the acquisition, access, and organization of information. - Ensure memory retrieval aligns with human cognition. - Magnify the value derived from the application of this knowledge. A quick sneak peek at our roadmap: We're on the brink of launching both a Mac client and an iPhone app. With features for auto-syncing and on-device storage options, you'll have an even more secure and efficient way to manage and leverage the information in your screenshots. Cheers, Jarod

@ming_xu1 Rohan, congrats on the launch! This looks really cool! If I can suggest one thing: create a desktop app so that there is no need to separately send screenshots anywhere. Just let people take screenshots with your app right away, organize it locally and that's it. Hope this helps :)
Maker
@stoicbasil Great point! A desktop app is already on our roadmap, and I anticipate it will be live within a month. Looking forward to you trying it out. Thank you for your support and feedback!

Great pivot and launch. Many of us make screenshots and it gets lost on your desktop somewhere. For future use, do you consider to make a browser extension?
Maker
@bartvandekooij Hi! Thanks, Bart. Yeah, browser extension has been on the road map.
Maker
@bartvandekooij Absolutely! We're about to launch the browser extension, and we'd love for you to give Trickle a spin and share your thoughts once it's out ❤️.
Maker
@bartvandekooij Hi, Bart! As a long-time friend of Trickle, thank you for your continuous support. Like you, I have tons of screenshots on my Mac and iPhone, and this time we're trying to address that specific issue we face. Of course, browser extensions and client apps are on our roadmap. Once we have a beta version, you'll be among the first to try it out :)
Congrats on launching your new product! Not something I personally need, however it can be very useful for students that take a lot of screenshots of materials and resources
Maker
@andriyuh Thanks for your kind of words!
Maker
@andriyuh You're absolutely right, Andrija. Students are indeed a group of people who need to keep a lot of informative screenshots. As a product marketer, I also take screenshots of good content and store them in my folder. Soon, Trickle will be able to process even more types of images. By then, I hope that Trickle can offer the value you need. ❤️

Congratulations to you Jarod my friend and your team. I love the new website and how you use AI to increase productivity! This gonna stay number 1 today.
Maker
@zeng Thank you for your support!
Maker
@zeng Thanks for your support! Wish you all the best!
Maker
@zeng Thank you, Zeng! We've received your support every time we've launched, and I think we finally got some things right this time around. Your support means a lot to us.

💡 Bright idea
I'm in love with this product already. It's the app I didn't know I needed, but after 20 min, I can't live without it. #PKM nerds are going to lose their minds. Please consider looking at a Readwise connection so we can import directly into our linked PKM tool from there. You'd get a huge bang for your buck, and the PKM community, which is constantly looking at what new Readwise integrations are available, would find you quickly. Usually, I don't get PKM tools until they have Readwise support, but this one's worth it. I'm going for it this time, and I've already synced up the notion connection to zapier so I can get it into my PKM. Thank you so much for this. If you want to pick a PKM nerd brain for use cases, hit me up.

@lisaross I once foolishly tried to make a Notion alternative, but then I realized that I didn't even know my own needs were not being met: a pile of screenshots that took up half of my photo album, but were useless. So today's Trickle was born. I'm glad you mentioned the Readwise, as several users also mentioned similar needs, so I think we should put it at the top of our roadmap. We may have a beta version ready in 1-2 weeks. During development, I'll try to get your feedback and provide a beta version for your reference. 🙌

@ming_xu1 Happy to give feedback any time! 🤗

A great tool to help me summarize and organize screenshots, and extract insights for easy query. Kudos to the team!
Maker
@lidongsjtu Thanks for your support! We appreciate that you could explore Trickle and leave us some feedbacks.
Maker
@lidongsjtu I'm thrilled that Trickle has been useful for you and has helped you tackle challenges. Thank you for your support :)
Cem Özçelik
great idea! Is there an option such as team membership?
Maker
@cem_ozcelik Thanks for your support!! And yes, you can invite members to join your space, and you'll see a "Team Hub Space" on the left nav bar, then all the members can collaborate on this space.
Maker
@cem_ozcelik Yes, you can invite members to the workspace. Currently, we've placed the access a bit deep, under the dropdown menu in the top left corner. We look forward to more of your feedback. Thank you!

# Talk to screenshots
Maker
@sentry_co Sure, you get the idea! Please enjoy Trickle.
Maker
@sentry_co Nice one! 🙌
Daniel Zaitzow
Wow! Congrats on the launch. What an amazing product that solves a need that many of us didn't even realize we had. I love the design components but beyond that I love the simplicity / use case. Curious if you've thought of this as a platform that might integrate into other builds through an API? Either way - Amazing work and what a cool product!
Maker
@dzaitzow Great thanks for the support! Currently, we not yet have the opened API service, but we are considering it internally.
Daniel Zaitzow
@samdy_chen If you start to consider it seriously we might have a use case within our app. Please feel free to reach out to me via LinkedIn (link in profile) or at dan@contentblocks.com if and when that becomes a more serious roadmap decision.
Daniel Zaitzow
@samdy_chen Love it!
Dan Tegzes
I'm just gonna say it: WOW! The ability to browse the screenshots is absolutely amazing! This is my new favorite product! Kudos to the team!
Maker
@dan_tegzes Thanks Dan. We are so happy that you love Trickle. Stay connected, please let us know if you have any suggestion on Trickle.
Maker
@dan_tegzes Your kind words mean a lot to the team.
