Maple for your desktop
A lightweight, local-first AI memory layer that lives in your menu bar. Captures meetings, indexes your screen, and gives you instant recall — without leaving your flow.
macOS
Windows
Mobile
Everything in one install
No plugins, no browser extensions, no manual setup. Maple ships as a single native app that does it all.
Meeting transcription
Auto-joins Google Meet, Zoom, Teams, and Slack calls. Transcribes locally with Whisper and generates summaries, action items, and follow-ups.
Screen context capture
Silently indexes what's on your screen using on-device OCR. Builds a searchable memory of everything you've seen — documents, tabs, Slack threads.
Instant recall
Press ⌥ Space to summon Maple from any app. Ask natural-language questions about your meetings, screen history, or connected tools.
Integration hub
Connects with Gmail, Google Calendar, Slack, Notion, and more. Pulls in context automatically — no copy-paste, no tab switching.
Proactive routines
AI-powered automations that surface relevant context before meetings, draft follow-up emails, and flag tasks you might have missed.
Private by design
AES-256 encrypted on-device storage. Indexing happens locally — only the snippets needed for a query are sent encrypted, and never used for training.
Up and running in minutes
No configuration wizards, no API keys. Install, grant permissions, and Maple starts learning.
Install
Download the native app for your OS. Drag to Applications on macOS or run the MSIX installer on Windows.
Grant permissions
Allow screen recording and microphone access. Maple requests only what it needs — nothing more.
Connect your tools
One-click OAuth for Gmail, Calendar, Slack, and Notion. Maple begins pulling context automatically.
Start asking
Press ⌥ Space from any app. Within hours, Maple has enough context to feel like a second brain.

Built different
Maple isn't another Electron app wrapping a web page. It's engineered for performance, privacy, and peace of mind.
Tauri + Rust core
Native system tray app built with Tauri. Sub-50 MB binary with near-zero idle CPU usage. No bundled Chromium.
SQLite + local vectors
Your memory index lives in a local SQLite database with embedded vector search. Sub-100ms retrieval at any scale.
AES-256 at rest
All local data is encrypted with AES-256. Your workspace key never leaves your machine — zero-knowledge by default.
Whisper transcription
On-device Whisper model for real-time meeting transcription. No audio ever uploaded — transcripts stay local.
On-device OCR
Screen content captured via native OCR APIs. Continuous indexing that doesn't slow down your machine.
Auto-update
Silent background updates that apply on next launch. Always on the latest version — no manual downloads after setup.
Common questions
Maple is currently in closed beta. We're onboarding waitlist members in weekly batches. Join the waitlist and we'll email you when your batch opens — typically within 1–2 weeks.
Yes — the Free plan includes meeting and screen context capture, 3 active projects, and 5 hours of transcription per month. Pro unlocks unlimited projects, advanced AI, and integrations for $16/month.
Indexing happens entirely on your device. When you ask a question, only the minimal context snippets needed are sent — encrypted — to generate a response. Your data is never used for model training.
The index is highly compressed — typically 1–3 GB for a month of active use. You can configure retention windows and exclude specific apps from indexing in Settings.
Maple is built on Tauri with a Rust backend — it's designed for near-zero idle CPU and low memory usage. Screen capture and OCR run on a throttled background thread that pauses automatically during heavy workloads.
On macOS, drag Maple to Trash. On Windows, uninstall from Settings → Apps. All local data including your encrypted index is removed — nothing persists after uninstall.
