Pool's new app turns your screenshots into something useful
Pool's new app automatically sorts screenshots into personalized collections, tracks down the original links behind saved content, and helps you rediscover products, recipes, travel ideas, and other things you meant to revisit.
TL;DR
- Pool is a new app that helps users organize their phone screenshots.
- It uses AI to automatically categorize screenshots into personalized collections called 'pools'.
- The app can track down the original links associated with screenshots, such as product pages or recipes.
- Founders Maxime Junique and Piet Terheyden developed Pool to solve their own problem of losing track of saved screenshots.
- Pool is positioned as an AI-driven bookmarking tool, competing with similar services like mymind and Fabric.
- The app treats screenshots like memories, with some content potentially disappearing after a certain time (e.g., event tickets).
- Pool is available for free download on iOS.
- The founders are planning a second app that will function as a personal assistant, potentially using Pool's mascot.
