AI that records everything on your Mac and lets you search your digital memory.
What is Rewind AI?
AI That Remembers Everything You've Seen and Done
Rewind AI is a macOS application that records and stores everything that happens on your computer — every webpage visited, document read, video watched, and conversation had — and makes it searchable through AI. It acts as a perfect digital memory, allowing users to find anything they encountered on their computer simply by describing it in natural language.
Total Recall for Your Digital Life
Rewind captures screenshots, transcribes audio from calls, and indexes text from every application locally on your device. Nothing is sent to the cloud — all storage and AI processing happens on your Mac, ensuring complete privacy. The AI search interface allows queries like "what was that article I read about solar energy last Tuesday?" or "find the email where John mentioned the contract deadline" and returns the exact moment in your computing history.
