A Swipe File Tool That Actually Works.
Stop digital hoarding. Transform your inspiration into a structured database of marketing intelligence you can search, filter, and reuse.
The Swipe File Problem
Every marketer has a swipe file. The problem is where it lives. Screenshots named `IMG_4392.png` or 400 Pinterest pins with no context. When you actually need the inspiration — for a campaign brief or a pitch deck — you can't find it.
"A swipe file without context is just digital hoarding."
What a Useful Swipe File Needs
The Visual
The ad, the landing page, or the product shot worth remembering.
The Context
Brand, channel, technique, and why it caught your eye in the first place.
The Structure
A way to search, filter, and compare entries across your entire collection.
