What is Rewisp?
Rewisp gives your Mac a memory. It reads text from your screen on-device, stores it locally, and helps you recall anything later. Instead of recording video or sending data to the cloud, Rewisp captures only the words you see — then lets you search by meaning, track changes, set reminders for promises, and even fill forms from saved details. It's a private, intelligent assistant that lives entirely on your Mac.
Who it's for
- Busy professionals — who juggle multiple tasks and need a reliable way to remember commitments, deadlines, and important details without manual note-taking.
- Privacy-conscious users — who want the power of AI-driven memory without sacrificing control, as Rewisp never saves screenshots and keeps all text on your Mac.
- Knowledge workers and researchers — who frequently revisit web pages, documents, or data and need to track changes over time or search by meaning, not just keywords.
Key features
On-device text capture with zero screenshots
Rewisp uses Apple's Vision framework to turn each screen glimpse into text — the screenshot is discarded immediately. Only the words remain, stored locally on your Mac. This means you get a searchable memory without compromising privacy.
Semantic search and change tracking
Ask "what changed since Tuesday?" and Rewisp shows exactly what was added, removed, or moved on any page. It understands meaning, not just matching words — so "that article about burnout" finds the page that said "exhaustion." Every version of a page is kept as clean text.
Promise catching and smart reminders
When you type "I'll send it Friday," Rewisp catches it automatically. Confirm the promise, and it reminds you on the due day — once, until it's done. It also tracks recurring numbers like weight or grades over time, showing sparklines so you can see trends from your own screen.
Form filling from a personal Vault
Hit ⌘⇧Space on a signup or checkout page, and Rewisp reads every field, then fills them from your saved details in the Vault. It never stores passwords or credit card numbers, and it never submits anything — you review and send manually.
What stands out
Rewisp was built the opposite way — the pixels are gone before anything is saved.
Most "memory" apps record your screen to the cloud. Rewisp flips that model entirely: screenshots are never saved, only the extracted text stays on your Mac. This means you get a powerful, searchable memory that respects your privacy completely. It also integrates with MCP clients like Claude and Cursor, letting AI tools read your memory and promises while you work — read-only, local, and free.
Worth checking out if…
You want a private, on-device memory assistant for your Mac that captures text from your screen, tracks changes, catches promises, and helps you search by meaning — all without sending anything to the cloud. Rewisp is ideal if you value privacy but still want AI-powered recall, reminders, and form filling that adapts to your daily workflow.
