What reMind is
A memory tool for your own machine. It captures what you do on your device and makes it searchable later, running against a local model through Ollama so the record stays on the computer.
The project is open source, so the setup is a build-it-yourself exercise rather than an install.
What you can do with it
- Capture digital activity as it happens
- Search your own activity history
- Run it against a local model you choose
- Customise components from the source code
- Keep data on your own device
- Recall tasks and workflow context
Who it is for
- People comfortable installing Ollama and a model
- Privacy-conscious users avoiding cloud memory tools
- Developers who want to modify the source
- Anyone recording their own activity for retrieval
What to watch out for
- Setup requires installing Ollama and a local model, which is not beginner-friendly
- Recording your own activity still means a detailed log of what you did, so protect the machine
- Local models are slower and less capable than hosted ones, which affects retrieval quality
- As an open-source project, support is community-based rather than contractual
