Rewind

Rewind records the contents of your computer screen and audio output, storing them in an indexed archive that can be queried later. It captures screenshots and audio streams continuously, preserving timestamps and contextual metadata so that each moment can be retrieved by searching keywords, phrases, or visual elements. The system runs in the background, writing data to a local database and providing a search interface that lets users locate specific screens or sounds from past sessions.

The tool is aimed at users who need to revisit visual or auditory information without manually bookmarking it, such as developers reviewing UI changes, analysts recalling spoken content, or anyone who wants a searchable log of their on‑screen activity. By keeping a searchable history, Rewind reduces the need for manual note‑taking or external recording utilities.

Rewind distinguishes itself by combining both visual and audio capture into a single searchable repository, rather than treating them as separate recordings. Its indexing allows fast retrieval based on textual queries, and it maintains a stable, production‑ready implementation suitable for continuous use.
