CueMe is a personal second brain for macOS. Write, journal and record into user-owned Markdown — then retrieve your real experience while life is still happening.

CueMe live: the interlocutor's question with translation, then the coach card streaming in

How it works

Capture an experience. Keep the memory. Use it later.

01 · RECORD

Write or capture life

Start a Note, journal entry, voice thought or two-sided conversation from the same home.

02 · OWN

Markdown stays yours

Projects and Notes are normal folders. Audio and attachments live beside canonical note.md files.

03 · CONNECT

Local semantic memory

FTS5, local embeddings and sqlite-vec index the files without replacing them as truth.

04 · REMEMBER

Help in the moment

Opt in to giving the live Coach a small, relevant snapshot of your actual past experience.

Features

More than notes. More than a meeting recorder.

🎯

Friend-style coach

"He asked X → answer like this." Guidance in your language, a ready phrase in theirs, plus the vocabulary you need.

✍️

Writing worth returning to

A spacious Markdown editor, typographic reading mode and adaptive light/dark appearance make memory pleasant to consume.

📁

Sovereign by design

Every Project and Note is a portable filesystem folder with frontmatter, attachments and recordings you control.

🧠

Longitudinal memory

Labels, Projects and hybrid semantic search connect written thoughts, voice notes, meetings and decisions over time.

🌐

Live translation

Every line the other person says, translated instantly with the key words bolded for fast scanning.

📄

CV-grounded

Paste or import your résumé; the coach points at your real stories instead of making things up.

🎓

Voice training mode

A built-in interviewer reads your CV and grills you out loud, adapting to your answers — end-to-end practice.

🔒

Local-first & explicit

Files, search, speech, translation and embeddings stay local by default. Personal memory reaches a Coach provider only when enabled.

⌨️

Out of the way

⌥Space to show/hide, a menu-bar control, pin-on-top. It sits beside the call, not in front of it.

Training mode

Practice against a voice that reads your CV.

Turn on training mode and CueMe becomes its own interviewer: it speaks questions aloud from your brief and résumé, listens to your spoken answers, and asks natural follow-ups. It's a full end-to-end exercise of the real pipeline — no external app, no API key.
