Earlyn keeps an encrypted, searchable memory of what's on your Mac's screen and in your meetings, and answers questions about your day. Scrub back through a timeline, find any word you saw, get meeting transcripts in any language with live translation, and give Claude Code, Codex or Cursor your context over MCP. Capture, search and transcription run on your Mac; nothing is sent unless you pick a cloud model or connect an app. 7 days free, then $19/month.
I kept losing things I had already seen: a number in a document, a link someone posted, what was said in a call. I wanted my Mac to remember them for me, without my screen going to anyone's server.
What Earlyn does: - Keeps the text and a picture of what's on your screen, encrypted on your Mac (SQLCipher, AES-GCM) - Finds any word you saw, or answers questions like "what was that pricing page yesterday?" - Transcribes meetings in any language with Whisper on your Mac, with live translation in a side panel - Gives Claude Code, Codex and Cursor your context over MCP
Apps you exclude, private browser windows and password fields are never captured, and recording only starts when you turn it on.
It's free for 7 days, then $19/month. I'd love to hear what you'd want your Mac to remember.
I’d be curious to see how accurate the search is when you only remember part of a word or a rough idea of what was on screen.
