Could you build this?
Partial The UI and the capture features are buildable, but a reliable always-on 30-second rewind buffer and smooth scrolling capture need low-level Windows graphics and performance work.
What it would actually take: The stack would be a native Windows app in C++ or C#, using Desktop Duplication API or Windows Graphics Capture for frames, with a ring buffer that encodes video continuously at low CPU cost. The hard parts are efficient always-on capture without lag or battery drain, and scrolling-screenshot stitching across apps. This requires Windows systems programming and graphics expertise, not just vibe-coded UI.
