On-device capture
Screens, meeting audio, and notes stay on your laptop.
Overshow records your screens and meetings on-device and makes every word instantly searchable, so you find the answer or decision before you have to go looking.
All features for free. No Credit Card Required. Go Pro for unlimited history. macOS only for v1.0.
Screens, meeting audio, and notes stay on your laptop.
One switch stops screen capture and active meeting audio.
Full-text and semantic search, running locally.
Context
Overshow captures your active windows, meeting audio, and notes locally. When you come back to ask about something, there is a record to read from.
Recall
Type what you half-remember. Overshow searches every OCR'd capture, transcript, and snippet you've indexed - locally.
Searched locally. Nothing left your device.
Try one of the examples below, or type your own.
Meetings
Overshow captures meeting audio only while meetings are active, then uses captions and screen context to surface the answer from your own history before you need to go looking for it.
“Cap retries at 120 seconds on 5xx and open a ticket if we see more drops.”
Pulled from your own transcript, local source
On your next call
Install locally, keep recordings on your device, and use every feature on the Free plan from day one.
Before every meeting
Overshow watches your calendar and, five minutes before the next meeting, assembles a brief from your own history: prior conversations with the same people, the questions still hanging, and the topics you were already working on.

Control
Pause capture the moment something private comes up. Add apps to your ignore list so they never get recorded in the first place.
Changes to the ignore list take effect after you restart Overshow.
Memory
Every capture and every snippet you write adds to a searchable record. Free keeps the last 7 days on hand; Pro keeps everything, so nothing is lost to the end of the sprint, the end of the week, or a tab you closed.

Recap
Trigger a recap of what your day actually contained. It runs on-device and lists the decisions, blockers, and follow-ups it found - nothing more.

Security
Three lanes cover how we treat your data: at rest, in use, and in transit. The first two stay on your laptop. The third is only active when you switch it on.
On your laptop, encrypted
SQLCipher encryption
The local database file is encrypted on disk with a key derived from a platform keychain secret, not just wrapped by the OS.
No cloud replica
We don't mirror your captures to a server. If the laptop is gone, so is the data.
Processed locally
On-device OCR and transcription
FluidAudio Parakeet TDT v3 and the OCR pipeline run on your machine. No frames or audio leave for processing.
Local embeddings and search
Semantic search uses local vectors. Queries never hit an external model.
Only when you opt in
Authentication and billing only
The only traffic by default is sign-in and subscription. Capture data is never in that path.
Explicit integration approval
Each integration is off until you turn it on and authorise it. Revoke any time from settings.
Roles
Pick the role closest to yours to see the specific workflows, controls, and outcomes we design for.
Find the error message, the command, the PR discussion, or the config change you saw last week.
Search last month's interviews, the usability video you half-remember, and the design review comments.
Ask the meeting brief before the call and the daily summary after it.
Pricing
Free and Pro ship the same features; the only difference is how far back you can search. Enterprise adds the controls organisations need.
Every feature with a 7-day history window.
Unlimited searchable history for ongoing work.
SSO, rollout support, and procurement-ready controls.
Billing period
Switch Pro between monthly and annual pricing.
FAQ
17 answers across capture, privacy, and pricing questions.
Screens (every monitor you record), meeting audio when a meeting is active or manually started, and local documents in folders you point it at. OCR reads text off every captured frame. Transcription runs in fixed 20-30 second windows with a short overlap tail.
In a local SQLCipher-encrypted SQLite database on your laptop, with FTS5 for full-text search and EmbeddingGemma 300M vectors for semantic search. No screen images or video files are persisted: only OCR text, audio transcripts, and metadata derived at capture time. Nothing captured is sent to a shared cloud database. The security page has the full control list.
By default, no captured content leaves. What does sit in the cloud: account and billing data, and device registration metadata. That is it. Optional MCP integrations and manual exports only move data when you explicitly enable them. See local vs cloud for the side-by-side.
