AI tools will come and go. Your thinking shouldn't disappear with them.
You ask ChatGPT for quick answers.
You use Claude for deeper thinking.
Then neither of them remembers what happened in the other.
Even inside one app, long conversations get compressed. The exact wording, decisions, and reasoning disappear. ThreadRecall sits outside the apps and keeps the original context locally, before it gets lost.
ChatGPT does not know what you discussed in Claude. Claude does not know what happened in ChatGPT. A new chat window starts from zero.
That may be good for infrastructure costs, but it means details, decisions, and original wording can disappear from the chat you came to rely on.
ThreadRecall quietly keeps the conversations that matter, then brings the right context back into the tool you're using — through search, single-thread recall, or Session Briefs.
Install the menu-bar app. No account needed. ThreadRecall helps you keep the AI conversations that matter, so your context stays searchable over time.
Your AI chat content stays local on your Mac.
Search across supported AI tools with one shortcut. Full-text and semantic indexing run side by side, so you can find a chat by a keyword, a feeling, a half-remembered metaphor, or the date you had it.
Filter by person, by tool, by month. Pin a thread to keep it close.
ThreadRecall helps bring relevant context from your past AI conversations into the tool you're using now — whether you're writing in Claude, thinking in ChatGPT, or building in Codex.
ThreadRecall's Session Brief gives your current conversation the background it needs, pulling together relevant context from past conversations so you don't have to re-explain the work.
ThreadRecall is local-first by construction. Your saved AI conversations stay on your Mac — no cloud sync, no account required for the local app, and no chat history uploaded to our servers.
Your saved AI conversations live locally on your Mac. ThreadRecall does not upload your chat history to our servers.
We do not collect or upload the content of your AI conversations. During beta, you can optionally send feedback from the app.
No login or profile is required to use your local library. Just install and start keeping the context that matters.
Your conversations are stored locally on your Mac in an open, portable format — readable outside ThreadRecall, exportable any time, and never locked to us.
ThreadRecall is in private beta on macOS. Join the early access list to try it early, share feedback, or follow along as we open more seats.
