Could you build this?
Partial The interface and summarisation pipeline are buildable, but reliable system audio capture and on-device transcription on macOS plus screen OCR and search need platform-level expertise and performance tuning.
What it would actually take: Use Swift with ScreenCaptureKit or Core Audio taps for system audio and screen capture, with a local Whisper-style model for transcription and a small local LLM or API for summaries and Q&A. Search over screen content needs OCR (Vision framework) and an indexed local store. The hard parts are capturing audio and screen reliably with low battery and CPU cost, and making local models fast enough, which requires macOS and ML-optimisation expertise.
