I built Trott out of frustration with my own “Saved” folders on Instagram and YouTube. I’d save reels and shorts—workout tips, recipes, travel spots—thinking I’d find them again later. But, like most people, I ended up with a black hole of unsorted videos: no search, no filters, and if I ever did find the right video again, I’d have to dig through the whole thing just to get that one detail I needed.

When I tried looking for solutions, I found only genre-specific apps or tools that demanded manual uploads or new workflows. None felt like they understood how real users behave or save content. So I decided to build Trott.

What makes Trott different?

You can share any Instagram Reel or YouTube Short (TikTok support launches next week) to Trott, straight from your phone’s native share menu—no manual uploads.

Trott uses AI to extract relevant info automatically (ingredients, places, products, etc.) and sorts everything for you.

It’s fully searchable with natural language. Just type something like “that Kyoto café from Instagram” and Trott finds it.

For travel videos, it can even produce Google Maps routes from extracted locations.

I’d love to hear how you organize your own saved content—or if you’ve just given up and let it pile up like I used to. Open to all questions, feedback, and bug reports. Happy to discuss the tech details behind Trott if you’re interested!
