Översikt

Screenpipe is an open-source platform that continuously captures screen activity and audio on your device, storing everything locally so developers can build AI applications grounded in real user context. By indexing what you see, hear, and do, it provides a rich personal data layer that apps and agents can query without sending information to the cloud. The project targets developers creating productivity tools, memory assistants, meeting summarizers, and personalized agents. It exposes APIs and a plugin system so custom pipelines can transform raw recordings into searchable text, transcripts, and structured events that feed downstream LLM workflows. Because all processing happens on the user's machine, Screenpipe emphasizes privacy and ownership of data while remaining extensible through community-built integrations.

Compared a few options

Evaluated this against two competitors. Where it wins: cross-platform desktop support and fully local processing keeps data private. Where it lags: performance depends on local hardware. On balance the feature set — especially cross-platform desktop support — justifies the 4 stars for our use case.

Skeptical, then convinced

I went in skeptical — most tools in this space overpromise. It actually delivers on oCR and speech-to-text indexing, and developer-friendly APIs for AI workflows caught me off guard. still, I'd recommend giving it a real trial.

Does the job

Pretty happy overall. APIs for querying captured context just works and developer-friendly APIs for AI workflows. but no dealbreakers — I'd recommend it to a friend without hesitating.
