HindsightRemember everything you've heard.
Hindsight transcribes your computer's microphone and system audio all day, on device. Your AI assistant can look back through all of it: this morning's call, a video from last week, the last time you spoke to a client.
How it works
HindsighttranscribingIt hears what you hear.
Your microphone, and everything your computer plays: calls, videos, podcasts, the conversation across the desk. It notes which app each sound came from, and which browser tab. Echo cancellation keeps a call from being transcribed twice.
It writes it down, on your computer.
Transcripts are made on device and kept in an encrypted database. Name a voice once and Hindsight knows who said what from then on. Your calendar helps it tell one meeting from the next.
Your assistant reads it when you ask.
Hindsight is an MCP connector, so any AI agent that supports MCP can search your day, read transcripts and see who you spoke to. Add it to your agent's config and allow it once.

It stays on your computer.
Transcription runs on device. The database is encrypted, with its key in your system's secure store. Nothing is uploaded.
You choose who reads it.
Each agent has to be allowed once, in Hindsight's window, before it can read anything. Apps you haven't allowed get nothing.
It keeps text, not audio.
Hindsight saves transcripts, not recordings, apart from a short clip of each new voice so you can name it. The window can ask for Touch ID or Windows Hello before showing anything.
