This is cool. I find myself also often taking screenshots and sharing as a convenient source of info.

I also feel like when I share the screenshot - via slack, the million messaging clients my various friends / colleagues use, etc. - the context and convo is often lost.

I see the value here in unifying that data in one place - instead of the screenshot, I can just share a link and then go and find all the screenshots somewhere. I like that. Actually, now that I think about it, if you set the `og tags`[1], chat apps should also make an image preview when you paste a link (maybe you are already doing this - I didn't check) so it's a similar effect as what we do today but with the added benefits of cataloging / commenting / finding.

Congrats on launching. Who do you envision as the primary users and first niche use cases?
