Control your AI
On your Mac
Remember everything
A scope is a folder with specific rules. When you work in that folder, those rules apply automatically.
Your AI remembers what happened on your screen.
Your AI was in the meeting. Ask it what you owe.
Your AI knows how your day went.
A new chat picks up where a long one got overwhelmed. All the context, none of the tokens.
Correct your AI and it offers to make a rule. Say yes and every AI you use follows it from now on.
Anything you just did can become a one word shortcut. Long workflow or a quick instruction, type your word and it runs.
Nothing goes to us. Your AI gets only what it asks for.
Everything stays on your Mac, encrypted with your key. When your AI asks Breadcrumb something, the answer goes to that AI just like anything you type. Use a local AI and nothing leaves. Use Claude or ChatGPT and their privacy policy applies.
Runs on local models
Transcription, speaker naming and organising your day all happen with models on your Mac.
Nothing goes to us
One daily update check with nothing posted (no identifying details sent). Watch Little Snitch to verify.
No voiceprints
Breadcrumb names speakers from what's on screen. It doesn't build voice profiles of anyone.
Record what you want
You can exclude apps, sites, words and phrases on screen. Incognito sites are never recorded.
Encrypted with your key
Your history is encrypted at rest. Your key stays in Keychain. We never get a copy.
12-word BIP39 recovery phrase. Yours, not ours.
Stop whenever you want
Instant pause from the menu bar. When paused, Breadcrumb records nothing at all.

This app is yours. No funny business.
Breadcrumb runs entirely on your Mac. We hold and collect nothing.
What free means
No account, no email, no credit card, no subscription, no telemetry. Completely local, completely encrypted.
Whatever happens to us, your copy keeps working. Funded or not, successful or not, the free Breadcrumb will never be removed, disabled, or restricted.
Requires a Mac with at least 16 GB RAM, Apple silicon M1 or later, macOS 15 or later.
How we make money
Personal Breadcrumb is free. We'll make money later from teams.
If you want to help us build it, you can back Breadcrumb once for $299.
We have exactly 1024 spots. Each one gets:
early builds and direct feature access
$2,500 credit toward a future team
A founding seat is refundable. Let us know if you would like a refund.
