May changelog: we got into Y Combinator S26
What's new on screenpipe this week?
We got into Y Combinator S26 🎉
Really appreciate everyone's patience, support, and feedback. This will be a great opportunity to turn screenpipe into an amazing tool for everyone.
The richest context inside isn't in your wiki or CRM — it's already on everyone's screen. AI agents can't automate work they can't observe.
screenpipe is the local-first memory layer that fixes that.
Please update the app, it might be outdated

⭐️ New features
Chat
- Chat history page with full-text search, bulk actions, brand-aligned tabs, and a sidebar entry — find any past conversation in one shot
- Chat source citations — every answer now footers the screen, audio, or memory it used. Verify before you trust
- Smart connection suggestions on the chat dashboard — surfaces relevant integrations for what you're trying to do
- Codex-style follow-up steering — queue messages while the agent is still working, reorder or cancel before they run
- Better message edit UX — editing a previous turn no longer collapses the surrounding context
- Chat picker in the collapsed sidebar — switch chats without expanding
Meetings
- Live transcript for auto-detected meetings (not just calendar-joined)
- Drag one meeting onto another to merge them — preserves titles, attendees, notes from both
- Collapsible transcript search + caret-follow in the note editor
- Toggle to skip auto-appending typed text to the meeting note (Settings → Meetings)
- Toggle to disable the live-note notification if it's noisy
- Speaker search uses diarization turns — lands on the exact moment a person spoke, not the whole chunk
- Stall notifications when the live transcript stops making progress
App
- Resizable left sidebar with a hairline drag handle
- Faster app launch — heavy chat / rewind renderers (code blocks, mermaid, message list) defer until needed
- Snappier chat history — debounced + cached refresh, no more stutter on switch
- Tighter chat composer + suggestions — preset picker, suggestion rows, source cards re-spaced
- Microphone echo cancellation — real AEC for mic capture (room echo + speaker bleed gone) on both Windows and macOS
Connections
- Filter + sort controls in the connections list
- Google OAuth unverified-app walkthrough — clean path through verification
- Browser session reuse on Windows + smarter extension popup (no need to re-login on the agent browser)
CLI
- Per-parameter overrides for event-driven capture intervals (
--capture-interval-vision-event, etc.) screenpipe surveycommand — send structured feedback from the CLI- npm install telemetry on Windows so we can see install-time failures
🐞 Bug fixes
Meetings & audio
- Meeting transcript no longer lost when live STT drops mid-meeting — backfills from buffered audio
- Google Calendar OAuth reconnects work; events deduped across multiple connected accounts
- Speaker delete no longer fails silently when audio chunk files are missing
- Chat no longer goes blank after "Summarize with AI" on meeting notes
- Removed broken direct OpenAI Realtime option from the live-engine dropdown
- Meeting-detected notification collapsed to a single action button (less noisy)
- Workspace-swipe markdown stability in meeting notes
- Audio writes use
INSERT OR IGNOREto fix transcript replace conflicts
Chat
- Chat sources stream-deferred so they don't fight the active response
- Fallback sparkle icon on auto-suggestions when no specific icon is available
- Chat empty-state hidden during pipe streaming
- Running-pipe spinner hidden when sidebar is collapsed
Windows
- CLI postinstall fixed on Windows
System / reliability
- Tray flips to Error when recording is denied on permission-denied early return (was stuck "ok")
- macOS prefers bundled ffmpeg over
PATHto avoid version mismatch - Focus-monitor identity matching no longer mis-attributes windows after a display change
- AI proxy strips refusals, retries on 400 sampling errors, drops orphan tool messages
- Pro-cloud audio migration respects explicit engine choice + resets on logout
- Tinfoil text + image redactors get the cloud token wired through
