Rewind

2020 - 2025, 6 years old

A Mac app that recorded and indexed everything on a user's screen and microphone so they could search their past with natural language.

Rewind pivoted in April 2024 away from the local-first Mac app to a $99 wearable pendant called Limitless, moving the architecture cloud-side and rebranding the company. Meta acquired Limitless in December 2025, after which the team announced the original Rewind app would disable all screen and audio capture on December 19, 2025. The Mac product that defined the brand was effectively killed in favor of the wearable, then folded into Meta.
