Overview

What it is

screenpipe turns your computer into a personal AI that knows everything you've seen, said, or heard.

Intent

I need it when

Give AI coding assistants context about code errors, documentation, and discussions to improve code suggestions

screenpipe runs as MCP server, allowing Cursor, Claude, and other AI assistants direct access to screen history. AI can see documentation you read, errors that appeared, and meeting discussions—making code suggestions dramatically more relevant.

Automate repetitive work tasks like meeting note generation and CRM updates without manual data entry

screenpipe's Pipes plugin system triggers automated workflows when meetings end—automatically writing summaries to notes, updating Linear tickets, and syncing to CRM tools. Integrates with 48+ apps including Slack, Notion, HubSpot, and Salesforce.

Search and recall past work activities, meetings, and conversations without manual note-taking

screenpipe records screen and audio 24/7 locally, transcribes meetings automatically, and enables natural language search across entire work history. Users can ask 'What did we discuss about pricing?' or find specific moments from past meetings instantly.

Maintain complete privacy while recording work activity without sending sensitive data to cloud services

screenpipe stores 100% of data locally in SQLite database by default. Open-source MIT license allows code auditing. Supports fully local AI models via Ollama so no data leaves the machine. Optional encrypted sync available for cross-device use.

Create searchable archive of everything read and seen for personal knowledge management and ADHD support

screenpipe provides visual timeline of entire workday with DVR-like scrolling. Users can search 'what was I working on before lunch?' or find closed tabs. Obsidian plugin syncs screen activity into knowledge base automatically.

Drop

Not a fit when

  • User requires cloud-based storage and centralized data management across multiple team members without local infrastructure
  • User needs real-time collaboration features with instant screen sharing to remote teams during active work sessions
  • User operates on Linux and requires graphical interface (only open-source CLI available free on Linux)
  • User has minimal disk space available (requires 5-10 GB per month of continuous recording)
  • User needs mobile app access to screen history and recordings
  • User requires integration with proprietary enterprise security systems that do not support local-first architecture
