ReMyndfour comparisons, in the order most people need them.
these are written to be useful when you are choosing, including where the other tool wins. start with the one that matches your situation rather than reading all four.
Which comparison should you read?
-
Rewind alternative for Mac
Start here if your Rewind Mac app stopped capturing on 19 December 2025 and you have been putting off replacing it.
-
ReMynd vs Screenpipe
Read this if you are weighing a codebase you can read against an app that is finished, and want the licence detail before you commit.
-
ReMynd vs Limitless
Read this if you paid for a Limitless pendant or subscription and want to know what is left of it, and what a replacement has to do.
-
ReMynd vs Microsoft Recall
Read this if you have seen Recall on a Copilot+ PC, or on a work machine, and are asking why the Mac has no equivalent.
-
ReMynd vs Pieces
The closest positional twin. Pieces ships an MCP memory server and ReMynd does not, so read this if agent integration is your deciding factor.
-
ReMynd vs Granola
For anyone choosing a meeting notetaker. Granola is the better product for team-readable summaries; this covers where the calls and the screen belong together instead.
The field as it stands, September 2026
The short version, before you pick a page.

| Rewind | Meta acquisition announced 5 December 2025; Mac screen and audio capture disabled 19 December 2025 | Nothing new is captured |
| Limitless | Desktop and Web apps discontinued; previously recorded meetings accessible throughout 2026 | Nothing new is captured |
| Screenpipe | Active, YC S26, roughly 21,400 GitHub stars, source-available commercial licence | macOS, Windows, Linux |
| Microsoft Recall | Shipped, opt-in and off by default, hardware-gated to Copilot+ PCs | Windows only |
| ReMynd | Active, closed source, free to download | macOS |
Sources for each of those, in order: 9to5Mac and CNBC; limitless.ai; GitHub and Y Combinator; Microsoft Support.
One thing worth saying plainly, because it shapes all four pages. A lot of people chose Rewind on purpose, paid for it, and built a habit around it, and by independent teardown it really was a local app. It was still switched off from the outside. That is the question to carry into every comparison here: not whose promise sounds better, but whose architecture leaves you holding readable files if the company stops answering email.
