About Pieces
Pieces runs in the background on your computer and records what you work on, forming a timeline of research, chats, emails, notes and meetings. You can search it, filter by time, source or topic, and ask questions about what you did.
It can generate standup updates, morning briefs, meeting prep and day recaps from that context, and exposes the memory to other AI tools through MCP. It captures from the focused application by default, with clipboard and audio capture opt-in. It suits people who lose track of context across many apps.
