What to know▼
How it works
Uses one local Gemma model on-device for screen vision, audio transcription, chat, and reasoning; captures only when content changes and lets you search or chat with your screen history in plain English.
What's different
Compared against Microsoft Recall (needs $1000+ hardware) and Screenpipe (needs separate OCR + Whisper + external LLM) — this runs one local model for everything.

A self-hosted, open-source widget you embed in your app with one script tag, letting users request changes by text, voice or photo, which a Claude Code session then edits and commits. Built for developers who want an in-app AI coding agent they control.
Open sourceSelf-hosted
What to know▼
How it works
A single script tag embeds a prompt bar in your app; a user's typed, dictated, or photographed request triggers a Claude Code session on your own server that edits your codebase and commits the change.
What's different
Open source, self-hosted, and uses your own API keys.
Best for
Developers who want an in-app AI coding agent they fully control.
