Local screen and call memory
Records apps, windows, and words visible on the computer, along with both sides of calls when permissions are granted. Sensitive cards, keys, and passwords are blacked out before data is saved.
LUCI
LUCI is a local memory app for Mac and Windows that captures permitted screen activity and computer-based calls, then makes the resulting records searchable by connected AI agents. It helps individuals and teams recover meeting decisions, daily work context, and earlier screen or conversation details without using a visible meeting bot.
Local memory for desktop work and AI agents
LUCI is a local desktop memory app for Mac and Windows. With permission, it captures what appears on the computer and both sides of calls, then keeps the resulting recordings, transcripts, and memory on that device. It is designed to give AI agents access to personal context from work done on the computer, rather than relying only on the current conversation.
The app can produce searchable meeting notes and action items, daily records, and recalled moments from screen or conversation history. Its Agent Bridge installs skills into supported agents such as Claude Code, Cursor, and Codex, while MCP provides a fallback connection for agents that cannot load skills. LUCI is offered free forever with no subscription or credit card requirement, and its published pricing page states that features are included for individuals and teams.
Key features
Bot-free meeting notes
After a call, LUCI provides meeting notes and action items that can be searched later, without inviting a notetaker address or bot into the meeting.
Agent Bridge
Official skills for Claude Code, Cursor, and Codex let connected agents search screen and conversation memory, filter by app or time range, retrieve a moment in full, and reconstruct activity over a period.
Daily records and agent workflows
The bundled skills include tools to search memory, turn a completed day into a record, and write meeting summaries into a Life folder. If LUCI is not running, agents can fall back to those plain-text records.
Local storage and agent connections
The app runs locally, stores data on the device, and uses local encryption for the on-device library. An MCP connection is available as a fallback for agents that cannot load skills.
Practical use cases
Recover meeting decisions
After a client or team call, review the notes and action items, then search the conversation later for a decision or requirement without reconstructing the discussion manually.
Give coding agents recent context
A coding agent can search what was visible on screen or said earlier, including a particular error, specification, or architectural discussion, and use that context in a current task.
Create a daily work record
Use the daily-record workflow to turn a completed day into a Life folder entry that summarizes work across meetings, applications, and focused work periods.
Reconnect project context
During proposal or project work, ask an agent to recall constraints discussed on a call or information reviewed on screen, reducing the need to maintain separate manual notes.
Take notes from bot-sensitive calls
Capture a conversation from a laptop without adding a meeting bot to the participant list, then keep the resulting transcript and notes available on the same device.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Keeps recordings, transcripts, and memory on the local device rather than uploading them to the cloud.
- Captures meeting audio without adding a visible bot or participant to the call.
- Connects personal memory to supported coding agents through installed skills, with MCP as a fallback.
- Provides searchable screen and conversation history, meeting notes, action items, and daily records.
- Available on Mac and Windows for free, with no subscription or credit card requirement.
Cons
- Capture is limited to the computer running LUCI and stops when the app is quit or permissions are revoked.
- Agents can send retrieved memory into their own conversations, so using a connected agent may move selected context outside the local app.
- LUCI requires screen and microphone permissions, and meeting audio must be playing on the computer to be captured.
FAQ
How do I set up LUCI?
LUCI is a desktop app for Mac and Windows. Grant microphone and screen permissions, leave the app running, and enable the capture types you want. Capture stops when you quit the app or revoke permission.
Does LUCI join meetings as a bot?
No. LUCI records meetings from the computer where you are participating and does not add a bot or visible participant to Zoom, Google Meet, or Microsoft Teams. The call audio must be playing on that computer.
What does LUCI capture?
Screen content, your voice, and the other side of calls can be captured when you grant the relevant permissions. Cards, keys, and passwords are blacked out before saving; LUCI does not capture other computers or calendar contents.
Is LUCI's data private?
LUCI stores recordings, transcripts, and memory on the local computer rather than uploading them to the cloud. A connected agent can still send anything you ask it to retrieve into that agent's conversation, so users should connect only agents they trust.
Which meetings can LUCI record?
LUCI can capture Zoom, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams, and other applications that play audio on the computer, as well as in-person conversations recorded through the laptop. It captures only while the conversation is happening on the computer running LUCI.
