Pool App Transforms Screenshots into Organized 'Pools'

AI Summary
The new app Pool helps users organize their screenshots into categories called 'pools' using AI, making it easier to rediscover and act on saved content. Co-founders Maxime Junique and Piet Terheyden aim to tackle digital clutter.

The Birth of Pool

For years, smartphone users have accumulated a disorganized collection of screenshots in their Camera Roll, serving as a makeshift archive for recipes, inspiration, travel ideas, and more. Today, the new app Pool arrives to bring order to this digital clutter.

How Pool Works

To get started with Pool, users grant the app permission to access their photos, which are then categorized into 'pools.' These pools are unique to each user, based on the products, places, or things they've saved over time.

The AI Advantage

Pool focuses on screenshots and leverages AI to help users rediscover and act on saved content. Once imported, Pool can track down the original link associated with a screenshot. For example, if a user saved a product screenshot, Pool would link to the retailer's website.

The Founders' Vision

Co-founders Maxime Junique and Piet Terheyden created Pool to solve their own problem of losing track of screenshots. The app is the first product from their Spinoff Studio, which previously developed other products, including the CRM software Waitless.

The Future of Pool

Pool is available now as a free download on iOS. The founders plan to expand the concept into a second app, operating as a personal assistant, and are heading to San Francisco to meet with investors. Pool previously raised a pre-seed round of just over $2 million from investors like General Catalyst and Kima Ventures.
