MeMex

A private, searchable memory for your Mac

MeMex records your Mac screen activity locally and turns it into a searchable timeline you can query in plain English to jump back to the exact moment you saw something. It generates daily and weekly reports of what you worked on and can surface repeated workflows. AI analysis is optional and runs through your own OpenAI-compatible model endpoint, so there are no bundled AI credits and recordings stay in a location you choose.
