What it does
ScribeShot turns YouTube videos into a local, AI-powered learning workspace on your Mac. Generate structured notes and timestamped chapters, capture screenshots that are filed with the right moment, explore ideas through mind maps, chat with the video, or play a narrated highlights reel. Run a local model privately or bring your own OpenAI key. Your notes, transcripts, and screenshots stay as ordinary files on your computer.
Turn YouTube lectures and tutorials into visual Markdown notes, then search, ask questions, and test yourself across your saved video library. Local AI on Mac.
ScribeShot requires JavaScript for the interactive demo and navigation. Please enable JavaScript to get the full experience. Create visual Markdown notes with timestamps and screenshots, then use your saved ScribeShot library as a knowledge base: search across videos, ask questions with source evidence, and test what you remember. Build the note once. Return later through the source, the library search, a question, or a quiz. ScribeShot creates a local workspace from the video and its available transcript. Generate notes, chapters and learning concepts, and capture the visual frames worth keeping. Search the whole saved library, Ask Library with citations, or use Test Me for active recall.…from scribeshot.com

Open-source macOS AI copilot using vision and voice2023 · github.com · ▲430Heeey! I built a macOS copilot that has been useful to me, so I open sourced it in case others would find it useful too. It's pretty simple: - Use a keyboard shortcut to take a screenshot of your active macOS window and start recording the microphone. - Speak your question, then press the keyboard shortcut again to send your question + screenshot off to OpenAI Vision - The Vision response is presented in-context/overlayed over the active window, and spoken to you as audio. - The app keeps running in the background, only taking a screenshot/listening when activated by keyboard…
AI Playground2025 · veed.io · ▲159Finding notes fast is still hard. You can organize with tags, PARA, or backlinks, but searching always feels slow and frustrating. That’s why I built ConniePad - native app on macOS & iOS. It works offline and lets you capture notes quickly anywhere. It has a comprehensive editor and local speech-to-text on iOS, so you can jot down ideas even without internet. But capturing notes is only half the story. What about finding what you need? ConniePad uses AI search. You can type queries like you would in Google or ChatGPT. It understands similar words, wrong typos, and abbreviations, so you get…

Clipto MCP▲655Hey HN, We recently built Clipto. It’s a tool that lets you search over terabytes of video, audio, and images on your computer, without relying on the cloud. Motivation: we probably all had this similar experience, we know a moment exists in a video or audio, but finding it takes hours scrubbing the timeline. You can send all the media to process in the cloud, but it’s slow, expensive and raises privacy concerns. So we decided to build our own on-device media search engine. How it works (high level): 1. We ingest video, audio, image; normalize formats via ffmpeg; run content analysis to…

Hello HN! I found that picking out plausible but diverse skin tones for my digital art and game development projects was kind of difficult, and I got curious about if there was a way to define a color space that made it easy. I've built a color picker and procedural generation algorithm based on the space as well as a bunch of other fun js features and demos throughout the page that use the equations. If you find it interesting, I have lots of explanations of how I built it and what properties the space has. The methodology might be a bit shaky, but hopefully the result is as helpful for…
