Rewisp
A local screen-text memory tool for Mac
About Rewisp
Rewisp is a local text-memory tool for Mac. It uses smart triggers such as switching apps, opening pages, and scrolling stabilization to capture snippets instead of recording continuously. Apple Vision framework turns each snippet into text on the device, and screenshots are not saved. Data is stored in a local SQLite file readable only by you; the last 10 minutes can be deleted with one click, and all content expires after 6 months. It can also connect to Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, or other MCP clients to search screen history and read work commitments.
