OpenOwl

Your browser finally remembers your workday. Local-first AI across tabs, with no servers and no tracking. Bring your own key

OpenOwl gives your browser a memory. It watches what you work on — GitHub PRs, Linear tickets, Notion docs, Gmail threads, calendar events — and turns that activity into AI-powered summaries, standups, and answers. All private, all local, all using your own API key. WHO IT'S FOR If you live in a browser and need to know what you worked on — OpenOwl is for you. Developers — stop writing standups from memory. OpenOwl reads yesterday's PRs, tickets, and research sessions and writes it for you in seconds. Engineering Managers — your week spans 1:1s, sprint reviews, vendor renewals, and incident threads. Ask OpenOwl for a week wrap and it pulls the whole story together. Delivery Managers — track what shipped, what slipped, and what's blocked across multiple teams without chasing updates. Product Managers — your day is scattered across Jira, Notion, Slack, and email. OpenOwl connects the dots and surfaces what matters. BAs and PMs — six customer interviews, a design review, a spec that took all week. One click writes the Friday status update your manager is waiting for. If your job involves switching between tools, attending meetings, reading tickets, and trying to remember what happened last week — OpenOwl was built for you. WHAT IT DOES ✍️ Write My Standup One click. OpenOwl reads your yesterday — tickets, PRs, meetings, AI chat sessions — and writes a categorised standup. Delivery, strategy, and governance, all in the right buckets. 📅 Week Wrap Ask for a weekly summary on Friday and get a narrative of everything you shipped, planned, and attended. Patterns and next-week suggestions included. 🔍 Remind Me Of The most powerful feature. Type "remind me of that Node security thing" and OpenOwl surfaces the AWS email, the Linear ticket, and the blog post you read — from different days — in one answer. No other tool can do this because no other tool sees across all your tabs and history simultaneously. 💬 Ask Anything Ask questions about your open tabs and work history. "What was the blocker on the checkout feature?" "What did I copy from that Notion doc?" "What tickets am I waiting on?" HOW IT WORKS OpenOwl is a Chrome sidebar that reads your open tabs and logs your browsing activity locally. When you ask a question or generate a summary, it builds context from your tabs and history and sends it to your chosen LLM provider along with your prompt. The response appears instantly in the sidebar. No OpenOwl servers. No data collection. No analytics.
