  • AI chat — Ask "What did I do today?" or "How long did I spend on project X this month?" — answered from your own records
  • Screen memory search — Find any text that ever appeared on your screen and jump to the screenshot and moment (screenshots and OCR are off by default, enable as needed)
  • Multi-device aggregation — Optionally sync activity data with Google Drive or WebDAV and combine data from multiple devices for analysis
  • Local & privacy-first — Data stays on your machine by default

Quick Start

Download the installer for your platform from Releases and install it.

Windows

Download hindsight_x.y.z_x64-setup.exe and double-click to install.

⚠️ First launch will trigger "Windows protected your PC" — the installer is not yet signed with an EV code-signing certificate, so SmartScreen will block it. Click "More info" → "Run anyway" to continue.

macOS

Download hindsight_x.y.z_universal.dmg, double-click to mount, then drag Hindsight into the Applications folder.
