Description

OpenHistory is an open-source macOS app that builds a private, searchable timeline of a user's work by observing only the foreground activity they explicitly permit — window names, document context, browser domains, clicks, and visible interface text via macOS Accessibility APIs. It generates hourly and daily summaries and gives approved local AI agents a controlled way to answer questions about what the user did, using Apple's local Foundation Model by default or, optionally, OpenAI, Anthropic, or Kimi. By design, it does not capture screenshots, audio, camera or microphone input, passwords, private browser windows, or low-level keystrokes, and sends no analytics or telemetry of its own. All activity, timelines, summaries, settings, and agent connections are stored in a permission-restricted directory on the user's own Mac. It requires macOS 14 or later and is available on GitHub and via a direct download from its own site.

Sista AI (operated by Amsterdam-based consultancy Zalt) is a done-for-you AI agent firm that finds where AI pays off, builds self-learning agents into your existing stack (CRM, ERP, helpdesk), and operates them in production across sales, support, marketing, and back-office ops. It's aimed at businesses wanting real deployment rather than stalled pilots, offering fixed-scope engagements from a €7k proof-of-concept pilot to fully-managed monthly operation. Its flagship product, Sistava.com, is an AI Workforce platform that lets non-technical teams 'hire' AI employees for functions like marketing, sales, HR, and support.
