A Drift board: one spring collection, kept from a single pageHover, keep, and keep reading
Hover any image on any page and a round button appears in its corner. One click, and a copy flies to a small shelf in the corner of the page. Drift saves the largest size the page offers, not the thumbnail it happened to show, and you never leave the page.
Cmd+Shift+K keeps any part of the page
The popup: boards, and where you’re savingA board with no edges
Everything you keep lands on an infinite canvas. Pan, pinch to zoom, drag to arrange, resize from a corner, and double-click for a note. Paste anything: an image becomes a tile, a link becomes a card, and text becomes a note.
Every tile knows where it came from
Click a tile for its colours and the page it was kept from, and tap a swatch to copy the hex. Double-click to see it full screen, at full size.
Send the whole board as one link
Boards stay on your machine until you share one. The link opens in any browser, no sign-up: move around the board, open any image, download them all, or add the board to your own Drift.
