If you were starting from zero, how would you handle moving from a shoebox of old passes to a digital archive?

I want to preserve the memories while also getting useful stats from them. is exactly the right target. The best systems are the ones you will still use after ten trips, not just one enthusiastic weekend.

I do not want the project to become a huge weekend manual-entry slog. is the part most advice ignores, and it usually ends up being the reason people quit a tool or workflow.

I try to keep it simple: solve the biggest pain point first, then add extra optimization only if I keep up with it naturally.

If I can scan and progressively clean up the data, that sounds much more realistic than building my own archive from scratch. That is where Borderly feels more compelling to me than a bunch of disconnected screenshots and notes.
