Tray

The camera roll is the new inbox. Tray turns it into action.

One screenshot. One tap. Done. Tray reads what you captured and sends it where it belongs: your calendar, your contacts, your CRM or Notion. Privately, on your phone.

Private beta: late 2026.


Important work now starts where your workflows can't see it.

For the operators we studied, the screenshot is how work gets captured.

Flights. Invoices. Contacts. Instructions. Approvals. Delivery confirmations. All of it sent to a camera roll built for holiday photos.

  • Intent forgotten
  • Tasks missed
  • Costly mistakes
  • Time spent copying things from one app to another

What it costs, in numbers.

What operators in our study report.

10–30work screenshots a week, per operator in the study
1 houra week, at least, spent processing them by hand
6.5 daysof working time lost every year
€2–3Ka year per operator, in time alone

Confirmed by 74 respondents to our Seed-30 study, closed 15 October 2026. Days and cost are calculated from the hours reported.

Others store or organise. Tray acts.

You keep capturing what matters. Tray handles what happens next.

  1. Capture

    You hand a screenshot to Tray. Tray only sees the screenshots you give it.

  2. Understand

    On-device text recognition and AI read what it is and what you'll need to do. Nothing leaves your phone until you choose where it goes.

  3. Route

    You confirm with one tap, and only that detail is sent to the app you choose.

  4. Resurface

    The right information comes back at the right moment. Automatically, quietly.

Tray in action.

Two workflows from V1: a boarding pass and a business card. Choose a step to look at it, or let it play.

Routes to

  • Google Calendar
  • Notion
  • Google Contacts
  • HubSpot

Read on your phone. Nothing leaves it until you choose where it goes.

Built first for the people who hold everyone else's details.

Executive and virtual assistants take work screenshots all day, and each one belongs to someone else's day: a flight, a signature, a meeting moved at the last minute. That's where Tray starts. Not because they're the only ones with the problem, but because they feel it first.

Now

Executive and virtual assistants

Every capture lands where it belongs: the flight in the calendar, the new contact in the CRM. Nothing waits to be filed at the end of the day.

Shaped by the operators in our Seed-30 study, and by a founder who did the job.

And then, anyone whose work passes through a camera roll.

Where today's tools stop.

A screenshot only helps if something happens next. Most tools cover one step and leave the rest to you.

Notes, reminders and foldersOnly works if you do the filing
Capture yes. Understand no. Route across your tools no.
Screenshot organisersSorted, but nothing happens next
Capture yes. Understand partly, sorting only. Route across your tools no.
Automation toolsPowerful, but they don't start from your camera roll
Capture no. Understand partly, only with steps you build. Route across your tools yes, with rules you build.
Your phoneReads the text. Connected to nothing.
Capture yes. Understand yes, reads text. Route across your tools partly, one app.
From screenshot to done, privately
Capture, understand and route across your tools: all yes.

The person building the tool is the exact user it was built for.

Melissa spent 18 years as an executive assistant, then COO. Tickets, bookings, confirmations, approvals: captured every day, then processed by hand, one by one. No tool solved it simply, so we're building the one she needed.
