On December 19, 2025, Rewind disabled screen and audio capture after Meta acquired its parent company. The rewind.ai domain is now parked. LUCI is the actively shipping Mac AI memory that replaces it — meeting transcription, persistent memory, and searchable recall, with no rug-pull risk.
Life memory for every AI agent. Meetings, screen, and the rest of your day, readable by the agents you already use. Actively shipping in 2026.
Mac screen-history search. Sunset Dec 19, 2025 after Meta acquisition. rewind.ai domain parked.
Rewind pioneered local screen-history search on Mac, then drifted toward a cloud Pendant under its Limitless rebrand, then got bought by Meta. On December 5, 2025 the team announced the shutdown; on December 19, the Mac app stopped capturing. If you came here searching 'rewind ai alternative,' 'rewind shut down,' or 'what happened to rewind,' you're the reason this page exists. LUCI is the living successor — Mac-native, meeting-focused, with persistent memory you can search in plain language and your AI agents can query over MCP. No always-on screen recording draining your battery 10% an hour, no $19/month subscription into a sunsetting platform, no arbitrary 10-queries-a-month cap on data sitting on your own disk.

Service disabled Dec 19, 2025. rewind.ai domain parked.
If you exported transcripts before the Dec 19, 2025 shutdown, LUCI imports them as searchable memory. Raw screen-recording archives are not supported.
Download the Mac or Windows app. Unlike Rewind, LUCI is meeting-focused — no always-on screen firehose draining ~10%/hr of battery.
LUCI starts capturing meetings and chosen screen activity immediately, building persistent cross-session memory you query in plain language.
Rewind was passive search. LUCI answers from memory — surfacing action items, citing exact moments, prepping your next call — and exposes it to your AI agents over MCP.
用一个记得住一切的 AI 录制你的屏幕——可搜索、私密、完全本地。
rewind.ai serves a parked-domain page. Screen and audio capture stopped on December 19, 2025. If your Rewind workflow disappeared overnight, LUCI is the Mac-native replacement — built around meetings and memory, actively developed, with a real roadmap.
Rewind let you scroll back to find what happened. LUCI answers from meeting memory: surfacing action items, pulling exact quotes, prepping you for the next call. The same recall — plus MCP access so your AI agents can query it too.
Rewind screenshotted everything every 2 seconds — the cost was 10%+/hour battery drain, MacBook Airs throttling under thermal load, and recordings of banking apps and passwords you never wanted captured. LUCI focuses on meetings you opt into, not a continuous spy-cam of your screen.
Rewind throttled local search to ~10 queries per month on the free tier — on data stored on your own machine. LUCI doesn't gate access to memory that already lives on your disk.
Yes. Rewind's parent company (renamed Limitless AI) was acquired by Meta in December 2025. Per 9to5Mac (Dec 5, 2025), screen and audio capture was disabled in the Mac app on December 19, 2025. The rewind.ai domain currently serves a parked-domain placeholder. Existing Pendant customers kept the Unlimited Plan at no charge for at least a year, but the original Rewind Mac product is no longer being actively developed or sold.
LUCI replaces the most-used Rewind workflows: meeting transcription, searchable memory across conversations, and quick recall of what was said. It does not replicate Rewind's always-on screen-history firehose, which was also responsible for most of Rewind's battery and privacy complaints.
No. LUCI focuses on meetings you opt into — Zoom, Meet, Teams, and in-room audio via the mic — rather than continuously screenshotting everything you do. This avoids the battery drain, thermal throttling, and accidental capture of banking apps and password managers that drove a lot of Rewind frustration.
Yes. LUCI's recordings, transcripts, and memory all stay on your computer — nothing is uploaded to the cloud. Everything stays on your device, encrypted at rest.
Limitless was the rebranded name of Rewind's parent company, and the Pendant is its hardware product. After the Meta acquisition, new Pendant sales stopped and the non-Pendant (Mac) functionality is being retired. See LUCI vs Limitless for the wearable comparison.
