About Screenpipe

Screenpipe continuously records computer screen and audio work and stores it locally to provide context to AI agents. It maps workflows to identify work worth automating and can generate agents, skills, and automations based on observed activity.

It includes natural-language search across captured history, accessibility-tree capture with OCR fallback, audio transcription with speakers, and tracking of keyboard inputs and app switches. Local capture and search work offline after setup. Cloud AI, sync, integrations, and managed team storage use separate data paths and require network access. Available features depend on plan, and the desktop app is offered for macOS, Windows, and Linux.
