Your Screen.
Your Memory.
Your Machine.

Your data, your archive. dArkiv silently captures everything you see and do on your Mac — then lets you search, chat with, and journal your entire digital history. No cloud. No subscription. No compromise.

What was I working on yesterday afternoon?
Based on your screen history, you were editing the Q4 report in Google Docs and referencing data from the analytics dashboard...

Everything captured.
Nothing uploaded.

Powerful AI features that run entirely on your machine. No subscriptions. No data harvesting. No compromises.

Total Screen Recall

Continuously captures and OCRs your screen at adaptive intervals — only recording when things actually change. Every word you see becomes searchable.

Semantic Search

Find anything you've ever seen on screen using natural language. Vector embeddings and full-text search work together so nothing slips through the cracks.

AI That Knows Your Day

Ask questions about your screen history in plain English. Get context-aware answers powered by Ollama, Claude, or OpenAI — your choice.

Auto Daily Journal

AI-generated summaries of your day — apps used, topics explored, and where you left off. Your work diary writes itself.

Meeting Detection

Automatically detects Zoom, Teams, FaceTime, Slack, and Discord calls. Optionally records audio and generates summaries with action items — all locally.

Clipboard Archive

Every snippet you copy is automatically indexed and searchable. Your clipboard becomes an ever-growing knowledge base.

Three steps.
Zero cloud.

Set it up once, then forget about it. dArkiv works silently in the background.

1

Install and Forget

Install dArkiv, grant screen capture permission, and you're done. It lives in your menu bar and stays out of your way.

2

Your Archive Builds Itself

dArkiv captures your screen at smart intervals, extracts text via OCR, and builds a searchable archive with vector embeddings — all stored locally in SQLite.

3

Search, Chat, Remember

Hit ⌘⇧O to open dArkiv and ask anything in natural language. It searches your history, gives AI-powered answers, and even writes your daily journal.

Your data never leaves your Mac.

Other tools capture your screen and ship it to AWS. dArkiv does the opposite. Everything — screen captures, OCR text, vector embeddings, chat history — lives in a local SQLite database on your machine. No accounts. No telemetry. No cloud sync. Your digital memory belongs to you.

We couldn't send your data to the servers if we wanted to. We have no servers.
