What about the privacy concerns mentioned above?

Are you doing all this work locally on the device, or are you shipping everything to OpenAI servers, or maybe other servers in some cloud?

If you're doing all processing locally on the device, I might be interested. But I don't want all that data being shipped off to some cloud for remote processing there.

In our current web app, users' screenshots are stored on AWS cloud. Only the essential information processed from these screenshots is sent to the OpenAI API. According to OpenAI API's public commitment, this data will not be used for any training purposes.

For our upcoming Mac client and iPhone app, we're considering storing the screenshots on the device. However, we still need to weigh the pros and cons of cross-device syncing versus local storage. Your feedback is invaluable in guiding our final decisions for the Mac client and iPhone app. Thanks for sharing :)

When you've got a local-only solution, or where local-only is at least available as a configuration option, please let me know.

Thanks!

Absolutely! We'll keep you posted once a local-only option is available. Thanks for your interest!

By the way, are you more excited for the iPhone app or the Mac client?

I don't generally take screenshots on my iPhone, only my Mac. But I'm sure a lot of people would like to have this app on iOS, too.

Thanks for your feedback :)
