Thanks @mwseibel for the hunt! Hi everyone, I'm Ali! Excited to share Trove with you! š—Ŗš—µš˜† š˜„š—² š—Æš˜‚š—¶š—¹š˜ š˜š—µš—¶š˜€ šŸ‘‹ @akshath_sivaprasad and I built Trove because we wanted a better way of bringing online knowledge into Notion. For me, it was because I use August Bradley's PPV system, and found that I consistently š—¹š—¼š˜€š˜ š—³š—¹š—¼š˜„ when copying and pasting research into Notion, or moving across Instapaper, Pocket, and Readwise just to highlight and add comments. There are two main use cases where we found ourselves using Trove: šŸ­. š——š—¶š—暝—²š—°š˜š—²š—±, š—œš—»š˜š—²š—»š˜š—¶š—¼š—»š—®š—¹ š—„š—²š˜€š—²š—®š—暝—°š—µ šŸ“š Ex. Combing through documentation, learning a new language, understanding why dogecoin went up 80% yesterday. šŸ®. š—¦š—²š—暝—²š—»š—±š—¶š—½š—¶š˜š—¼š˜‚š˜€ š—žš—»š—¼š˜„š—¹š—²š—±š—“š—² šŸ’” Ex. A stray comment on reddit, a meme about the Suez canal, the latest news about Elon Musk, or any of Naval's tweets š—›š—®š˜ƒš—² š—™š—²š—²š—±š—Æš—®š—°š—ø? š—Ŗš—®š—»š˜ š˜š—¼ š—°š—µš—®š˜? šŸ‘‹ Email us! Would love to hear more! feedback@trove.so š—•š˜‚š—“ š˜š—¼ š—„š—²š—½š—¼š—暝˜ šŸž Have 10min?

@mwseibel @akshath_sivaprasad @trove @ali_wetrill nice work! Any plans for having proper quotation added? Would be super useful for academic papers.
Akshath Sivaprasad
@eugenehp that's an interesting feature, we can get it out soon!
Ali Ahmed
@eugenehp echo-ing Akshath - love that idea! Would love to chat to hear more about your use case to nail down specifics (how you'd want the quotation formatted, citations): https://www.calendly.com/ali-wet...
August Bradley
@mwseibel @akshath_sivaprasad @trove @ali_wetrill - Fantastic Ali & Akshath, this is an outstanding tool! Looking forward to using it more.

Akshath Sivaprasad
Thank you Michael for hunting us and hello PH community! Context switching sucks. There's so much interesting information out there that I want to collect & commit to memory, but opening my knowledge store every time and manually writing out relevant content takes time and is annoying. Ali and I built Trove to solve this problem--saving highlights on any page is now just a click away~ Let us know what you think!
Ali Ahmed
@akshath_sivaprasad I think it's šŸ”„ but I'm biased :)

Kyle Morris
Really excited about this! As an avid user of various note-keeping methods + tools (roam/notion/evernote/etc) context switching is such a pain... Excited to see where Trove is going! The progress from a user perspective is hella fast! Hoping some day I can have a tool where I just browse the web, take notes, and naturally I form connections with previous notes I've taken without having to become a librarian.
Ali Ahmed
@morriscode librarian was my childhood dream job so happy to provide that value :) thank you for being an early user and such a great supporter with rock solid feedback <3 excited to test features with you and have you on the journey šŸ™
Ali Ahmed
@morriscode Also featured highlight: "a tool where I just browse the web, take notes, and naturally I form connections with previous notes I've taken without having to become a librarian." šŸ¤“
August Bradley
This addresses a big issue with capture in Notion and takes it to the next level. I have not seen any tool capture reading content real-time from the article's home page as effectively. It's nice to be able to do this in the context of the original article. Great work Ali & Akshath.
Ali Ahmed
