Waylight is an AI assistant that remembers everything you see on your computer including meetings, documents, websites, and messages. It builds a private memory of your activity so you can ask questions and get instant answers with 100% on-device processing.
Waylight is an AI memory assistant that runs entirely on-device, passively capturing everything you see on your computer—meetings, documents, websites, and messages. By processing screen changes locally, it builds a private, searchable memory of your digital activity. Users can ask natural language questions like 'What did I agree to in that meeting?' and receive instant answers based on the captured context. This eliminates the need to take notes or search through multiple tabs. The core value is perfect memory without cloud dependency, making it suitable for professionals who handle confidential information and need fast information retrieval. Waylight is designed for anyone who works extensively on a computer and wants to stay organized without manual effort.
The concrete problem Waylight solves is the constant forgetting of details from meetings, documents, and online research—a pain point that leads to lost productivity, missed commitments, and frustration. Traditional note-taking is disruptive and often incomplete. Waylight automatically and passively records everything you view, creating a comprehensive memory that is searchable via natural language. Users no longer need to copy-paste into other tools or dig through browser history. This matters because it saves time and ensures nothing falls through the cracks, particularly for tasks like following up on action items or recalling specific numbers from a spreadsheet. The passive capture means users can focus on their work without interruption, confident that everything is recorded and available on demand.
The first major feature group is 'Perfect Memory' combined with 'Ask about anything you've viewed.' According to the site, Waylight 'sits quietly in the background, processing screen changes. It builds an understanding of your workflow and life.' This feature allows users to ask questions about anything they've seen, such as 'Draft a reply to this email agreeing to the terms' and Waylight will respond based on the PDF open on the left. This is useful because it provides instant context without requiring the user to manually locate the information. The AI understands what is currently visible and can reference past screens as well. This capability turns your computer into a searchable external brain, drastically reducing the time spent searching for information across different applications and tabs.
The second major feature group is the 'Daily journal' and 'Live to-do list.' The site explains that Waylight 'summarizes each day, so you can quickly see what you worked on and when.' It shows which apps and documents were used, along with an activity timeline with summaries. Separately, the live to-do list 'builds a focused to-do list from your recent activity so you can act on what matters without digging through tabs.' The to-do list can be refreshed automatically to pull in the latest context, and users can edit, add, and delete tasks. These features help users stay organized and accountable by providing a clear overview of their daily accomplishments and next actions. The daily journal offers a retrospective view, while the to-do list is proactive, turning recent actions into actionable items.
