claude and gpt do record manually a workflow and turn it into a skill
screenpipe is more focused on 1. building a 24/7 living memory layer for your agents and your company 2. building a living list of automation opportunities without having to click a button or having to be technical
we found that in order to find automation opportunities it's better to have agents segment, classify (for example personal vs pro), enrich (which customers/people are related to this workflow) and organize the data first, then it's much easier to find repetitive tasks
Otherwise we usually collaborate with the company to allow screenpipe
You can also configure settings like changing transcription engine or only record meetings or turning off some features to reduce resource usage
We're open to more feedback, things could change in the future

Feel free to configure local LLM like Ollama, btw
We capture everything and gives you and option for a flexible data retention policy, so that you can prune mp4 files for example or verbose accessibility trees, while our agents generate high level memories referencing low level data
It still not perfect, but ideally Screenpipe would record forever so that you have infinite memory of every tiny details, while having high level structured memories for humans and agents, individually or as a company
We also have early support for encryption at rest through our CLI
We're the only local-first, open source option
How much time do you spend explaining the context to your Claude? Or writing detailed prompts? Copy pasting documents into the prompt?
Ultimately, it’s up to you what you run and trust
Screenpipe is open source and local-first
You can inspect it and keep your data on-device, with encryption at rest
I'm curious what does your AI buddies do more specifically and how do you use them?
Screenpipe captures accessibility tree and screenshot when you perform a meaningful action. It doesn't use AI at recording time (except PII removal and OCR infrequently). So it can be every few hundred milliseconds to few minutes or more (if screen idle or sleeping)
We usually benchmark CPU usage on $200 Windows/MacOS laptop
recently i have been working on a dating skill so AI book the right place based on each other personality using computer use
Have you considered using or integrating with ACP? https://zed.dev/acp
We use it in our desktop app IDE (mediar.ai) and it's pretty good
kind of sad it's macos only, i'm mostly windows user now :)
enjoy!
