Description
Earlyn keeps an encrypted, searchable memory of what's on your Mac's screen and in your meetings, and answers questions about your day. Scrub back through a timeline, find any word you saw, get meeting transcripts in any language with live translation, and give Claude Code, Codex or Cursor your context over MCP. Capture, search and transcription run on your Mac; nothing is sent unless you pick a cloud model or connect an app. 7 days free, then $19/month.

Could you build this?
No Continuous screen capture, OCR, audio recording, local embedding generation, and vector indexing on macOS require complex low-level system performance optimization and privacy architecture.
What it would actually take: A Rewind-like tool requires a native Swift/Objective-C macOS application utilizing ScreenCaptureKit, CoreGraphics, and Apple Silicon hardware-accelerated OCR (Vision framework) running efficiently in the background without draining battery or CPU. Audio streams require virtual audio drivers (CoreAudio) and on-device Whisper transcription. Data must be vectorized, encrypted at rest, and stored in a high-performance local SQLite/DuckDB/vector database, exposing secure IPC or local MCP servers for developer tools.
