About

Trash helps everyone share their story in video, regardless of their skill, by using AI as a creative tool and collaborator. Hannah Donovan and Dr. Geneviève Patterson created Trash so people can react to a generated draft rather than start from nothing. Users should not need every editing technique to get a vibey music video. Trash is a venture-backed startup and has won two National Science Foundation awards.
