nfx.com 39 Moves to Survive (& Thrive) in a Downturn: 2022 Edition

Savepad is the personal swipe file for marketers, devs, designers, and product people to get all your sh*t together. Finally.
Thousands of references spread across hundreds of tools that you'll never bother looking for. But somehow you need to get them ready for that kickoff call. Ugh.
That ad from Instagram, that email from Airbnb, that colour from Dribbble and that video from Loom. All in one place.
All in one place.
Most tools show you a favicon and a title. That's bloody useful 😒 Savepad shows you the thing, and everything you cared about in it.
Pages change. That landing page you liked in 2024 was redesigned 10 times already. Savepad keeps the copies for you.
Send it to your Savepad and open it the way you intended to: web or mobile, sender details included, trackers removed.
Search for something and the PDF opens at the right page, scanned PDFs too, because OCR can be magic.
Paste code snippets and mark their language to get the right syntax highlights.
Images open biiiiig, with the colours pulled out and the words in them made searchable. EXIF gets stripped when you save.
Send a maps link or a photo with a location and it lands as a place, with the city and the coordinates.
Paste a link anywhere in Savepad and it's saved, with a full-page screenshot, the text, and the metadata. Drag in a file, or a whole folder of screenshots from your desktop. On an ad library, the browser extension puts a Save button on every ad: the creative, the copy, the link, all of it.
On your phone? Share something you liked to your Savepad email address and it'll show up in your Savepad, ready to sort.
Triage mode lets you start sorting things one at a time, with full keyboard support to get you to inbox zero.
Remember three words from an example you saw two years ago? That's enough. Savepad searches page text, PDF pages, email bodies, code, your notes, and the text in your screenshots.

Savepad doesn't summarise your saves, guess your tags, or send your library to a model. It reads metadata, page text, and the words in your screenshots the old-fashioned way, and keeps your stuff in the EU.
You got inspired by stuff for a reason. You get to sort them as you like.
Read the philosophySavepad supports easy imports and exports, in open formats, so you're never locked in. Bring everything in from anywhere, and leave whenever you like.
Free for your first 150 saves. Light for when you want to stop counting. Ultra Pro Max Plus when you need to bring in the big guns. Monthly, so you can leave whenever without feeling trapped.

For when saving things feels like your full-time job.
A collection of examples you've seen and liked, kept so you can steal from them later. Copywriters have kept them in shoeboxes for a hundred years. Marketers keep them in 14 different apps. Savepad is the one app.
No. Savepad is your swipe file. When the team needs to see a folder, make it public, or send them a link. Is that leaving money on the table? Probably.
Everything smart in Savepad is plain old parsing: page metadata, PDF text, colours, and the words in your images. No-AI is a philosophy behind Savepad.
In the EU. Some of the tools we use are American, but we use their EU hosting. Savepad is built in Germany.
You'll get a looooong (6 months) heads up. You can export everything, files included, in formats other apps can read (like CSV and JSON) from the dashboard in a couple of clicks.
Not yet. From your phone, share anything to your Savepad email address and it shows up in Unsorted. The web app installs to your home screen for when you need to look something up on the train.
Savepad is being rebuilt from scratch. Leave your email and I'll ping you the day it opens.
