About
Essential is an open-source MacOS app designed to act as a co-pilot for your screen, augmenting your work by providing a 'second set of eyes.' It helps users remember on-screen information, understand tasks, and offer helpful suggestions or fixes, particularly for developers. Its 'Fixit' feature leverages Computer Vision and OpenAI's LLMs to track your screen activity, identifying and troubleshooting error messages from IDEs, terminals, or browsers, providing context-aware solutions without manual copy-pasting. The 'Remember' feature acts as a memory layer, summarizing recent work with screenshots. OCR on screen contents enables powerful recall, and stories are automatically categorized. All data processing occurs entirely on your Mac, ensuring privacy as no data leaves your system.
