Your Agent Misses Hours of Your Workday Context. LUCI Fills in the Gaps.

Your agent can reach a handful of your apps. LUCI gives it all of them.

Memories.ai today launched LUCI Desktop, a free application that turns a person's screen into context an AI agent can use — entirely on-device. LUCI is live now at luci.memories.ai.

Most of a working day happens outside the handful of apps an agent can already reach through a connector. GitHub, Notion, and Slack have APIs to build against. A WhatsApp thread, a browser tab, a PDF a client sent over, or a piece of desktop software with no API do not — and for most of them, never will. LUCI closes that gap by recording the screen and handing an agent the context automatically, mid-task, without the person ever opening an app, typing a query, or scrolling a timeline.

Built for agents, not for people

Rewind and Microsoft Recall pioneered searchable screen recording, but both are built for a person to open, search, and read. LUCI is built for the agent.

"Rewind and Recall are tools you have to open and hand feed your agent. LUCI plugs everything you do directly into your agent. It goes and gets the context itself, and none of it leaves your machine," said Shawn Shen, Founder & CEO of Memories.ai.

Once installed, LUCI wires directly into Claude Code, Codex, and Cursor through a local MCP connection. The agent decides what it needs and retrieves it — a conversation from yesterday, a spec buried in a PDF, a decision made on a call — without the person having to remember, describe, or hand anything over.

"We don't build the agent, we give the agent a local MCP into your own computer history, and it can use that however it wants," Shen said. "I personally have Claude Code distill my day from my screen recordings into markdown every night... Other users have wired up their own to-do dashboards with Codex. That's the whole idea: LUCI hands the agent the context, and what you build with that is up to you — a dashboard, a daily journal, whatever your agent's good for."

Free, after OpenAI shipped a paid version

The launch comes after OpenAI introduced Computer History, a similar screen-recording feature limited to paying subscribers on macOS. LUCI does the same underlying job for free, entirely on the user's own machine, on both Mac and Windows.

According to Shen, the hard part was never recording the screen — it's turning what's recorded into usable context without any of it leaving the device. "A lot of people are building similar things, but running everything 100% locally is actually the hard part," Shen said. "Processing in the cloud and just storing the result locally isn't the same as local. The real difficulty is turning screen captures into text and embeddings on-device, which takes a model strong enough to do that job without a data center behind it."

Memories.ai built LUCI in collaboration with Microsoft, Intel, AMD, and Qualcomm to get that model performance running on-device — a partnership referenced by Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella on stage at Microsoft Build.

100% local and light enough to leave running all day

LUCI runs on a machine's on-device AI accelerator rather than its CPU, so all-day recording is designed to cost almost nothing in fans, battery, or slowdown. It's already transcribing meetings locally and making them searchable — you can turn your notetaker off.

Privacy, by design

Because everything runs on-device, LUCI ships with built-in protections:

• 100% local indexing and storage. Nothing is ever uploaded.
• Encrypted local storage that only the user's own agents can access.
• Per-app opt-out, so people can exclude anything they don't want recorded. Sensitive tools like password managers and banking apps are excluded by default.
• Automatic redaction of sensitive information, such as passwords, as it's captured.

Get LUCI Desktop

LUCI Desktop is live today for Mac and Windows at luci.memories.ai, free to download. Install it, point it at Claude Code, Codex, or Cursor, and let your agent go get the context it's been missing.
