Expresso · five pulls · safelight on

One gesture,
every decision

A pull is a short, curated stream where seeing and deciding are the same act: swipe through, keep what's yours, and what you chose travels back to whoever asked. Photographers use it to put full-fidelity work in people's hands. Everyone else uses it for whatever needs an answer. Same machine, five costumes:
01 · the roll — for photographers

Coney Island, ten frames

An authored photo pull: staged crops, slow pans, reveals, a dedication. Swipe right to keep a frame; your keeps land in the photographer's inbox and your camera roll — at the size the sender allows.

02 · the markup — say it on the picture

Six frames, one grease pencil

Tap ✎ and draw on the frame itself — circle a face, cross out a crop, scrawl a heart. Your strokes ride home with your circles, rendered exactly where you drew them.

03 · the docket — decisions with a receipt

Eight calls, one elevator ride

Keep, pass, choose, or pick-2 — with a note (typed or spoken) stapled to any verdict. What returns is a record: every answer, every caveat, in order.

04 · the calendar — the week, triaged

Five invites, ninety seconds

Accepts, a conflict with your dentist, and a scheduling card where picking two slots declines the rest. The morning-queue future, playable today.

05 · the ballot — pick n of these

Choices with pictures attached

This-or-that with the options as images, a required call you can't swipe past, and a pick-2 that reads back exactly what you chose — not "yes."

and any pull can be passed on — circle your cut, hand the link up the chain,
