Clip it. Say it. Share it.

Quote anything on the web and add your own take.

Kirinoto turns a piece of any web page into a card: the part you clipped, what you think about it, and where it came from. You share the card in one tap.

It runs as a Chrome extension with a web app behind it, where your cards live in a feed that others can follow. Coming soon to Chrome.

What a card keeps together

The clip
The exact part of the page or video you picked, shown as it looked.
Your take
One line in your own words, set next to the clip, not lost under it.
The source
The page title, the site and the date, so anyone can go and read the rest.

Example card for illustration.

01

Clip it

Select a paragraph, an image or a moment of video on the page you are reading.

02

Say it

Write what you think. A reaction, a correction, a reason it matters.

03

Share it

Send the card anywhere. The link back to the original goes with it.

Let us do the chasing for you

Purchase order follow-up for purchasing and operations teams.

Okairo follows up with suppliers on open purchase orders, through the buyer's own email. It tracks supplier updates, delivery dates, and the jobs that depend on them.

No ERP integration is needed. A team uploads its open PO report as Excel or CSV and reviews the changes before applying them.

Waiting for an answer

Another email, another call, and still no clear update from the supplier.

Working from different dates

The supplier's promise and the job's need date do not always line up.

Finding out too late

One missing part can hold up a job and push a customer order further out.

Notes

From building Kirinoto and Okairo
Why Kirinoto

A screenshot loses the link.

I kept sending people screenshots of things I read, with my comment typed underneath. The screenshot lost the link and the date, and my comment got separated from it the first time someone forwarded it.

Kirinoto started as a fix for that: one card that holds the clip, the comment and the source, so the context travels with it.

Why Okairo

“Your PO is 45 days late.”

By the time that news reaches your desk, the production schedule may already be in trouble.

Supplier follow-up should not depend on chasing emails and hoping for an answer. Okairo asks early, keeps asking, and shows the reply next to the job that is waiting on it.

How Okairo is built

A new system should not be a project.

Adopting new software is not easy. People are busy, and most tools ask for months of setup before they give anything back.

I built Okairo to keep things simple. No integration with your ERP is needed. You upload the report you already have and start from there.

Where Okairo is now

In beta, with real teams.

Okairo is being tested by invitation before the portal opens. Feedback from buyers decides what gets built next.

If chasing suppliers for updates on open POs sounds familiar, I would like to hear from you.

I like software that does one job and gets out of the way.

I am Pablo Rosique, a developer based in Texas. Rosiquel is where I keep the things I build.

I take a product from the first sketch to the live version: the design, the code and the launch. Kirinoto and Okairo are the two I am working on now.

Do you have an idea that needs to be developed?
