Is Littlebird an alternative to Rewind or Limitless?
Yes. Rewind and Limitless were acquired by Meta, and the Mac app shut down on December 19, 2025. If you relied on either, Littlebird is an active alternative: a personal AI assistant that pays attention to your screen and meetings and builds a private, searchable memory of your work, with no bot joining your calls.
More detail
If you searched for a Rewind alternative or a Limitless alternative after the shutdown, here is the honest fit. The core idea you valued carries over: software that remembers your work so you do not have to. Littlebird captures context from your active window, transcribes and summarizes meetings, answers questions in Chat, and delivers proactive updates through Routines.
One difference deserves a plain statement. For individual users, Littlebird is cloud based: the app runs on your computer, and the memory it builds is encrypted and stored in the AWS cloud (AES-256, TLS 1.3, SOC 2 certified, no training on your data, no selling of it). If a local-only system is a hard requirement for you, Littlebird may not be the right fit today; self-hosted deployments exist at the Enterprise tier.
