The fastest way to lose time? Re-finding work you already did.

Recall Assist is betting on a blunt idea: your PC should remember what you saw, because your brain won’t.

So it records your on-screen context and clipboard history, then lets you search it later - fully offline, on your machine.

Here’s the deal: most “memory” tools quietly ship your data to servers, logs, and dashboards you’ll never see. Recall Assist does the opposite. No cloud. No tracking. Just local storage.

What it is (and why people want it)

Recall Assist works like a private rewind button for your day.

You looked at a doc. A ticket. A chart. A pricing page. A Slack snippet. Later, you need one detail. You don’t remember the tab, the app, or the exact words.

Recall Assist captures the moment and makes it searchable.

Windows is supported now. macOS is listed as “coming soon”.

The privacy stance isn’t a bullet point. It’s the product.

Screen capture tools make people nervous for a reason.

Recall Assist leans into that fear and answers it with constraints:

Offline-first storage

Everything stays local. That means your recalls don’t depend on an internet connection, and your sensitive work doesn’t become “training data” by accident.

Data masking for sensitive info

You can hide the stuff that should never land in a history log - passwords, personal data, client info.

Custom retention

Not all memory needs to live forever. Set how long data stays, and keep the rest of your drive clean.

The mechanics (what actually gets captured)

Recall Assist isn’t trying to be a fancy note app. It captures reality:

Automatic screen capture, indexed for later search
Clipboard history (the thing you paste 30 times a day and forget)
Application name capture, so you can trace where you saw it
Duplicate image prevention to cut noise and bloat

It gets worse: most people don’t realize how much “work” happens outside docs - inside tabs, popups, one-off windows, and copied snippets. This tool targets that messy middle.

Who it’s for

If you live in tickets, docs, and browser tabs, you’ll feel this fast.

Founders, devs, marketers, analysts, support leads - anyone who context-switches for a living. You don’t need more discipline. You need better recall.

Why does this matter? Because the cost isn’t the five minutes you lose. It’s the broken flow, the second-guessing, and the slow drip of stress.

Recall Assist wants to be your private digital memory. Not your next data leak.
