Curing "Digital Amnesia": Why I built a quiet AI observer for macOS
Hi Makers!
Have you ever finished a 10-hour day at your Mac and realized you can t quite remember where the time went? I call this "Digital Amnesia." > Most tools focus on "productivity tracking" and micromanagement. I wanted something different a witness. So I built Orb.
Orb sits silently in your screen corner. It doesn't poke or prodd; it just watches and understands. It transforms your raw screen time into a meaningful narrative of your day.
I d love to hear your thoughts on a few things before our official launch:

Orb - The quiet observer of your digital life
Orb is the quiet observer of your digital life. It’s a native macOS app that transforms your raw screen time into meaningful insights using local-first, privacy-centric AI analysis.
Stop falling into "digital amnesia." Whether you are deep in a coding session or exploring new research, Orb silently witnesses your journey. It periodically captures screen snapshots and provides automated daily summaries, helping you reflect on where your time actually went—without ever interrupting your flow.
