Your history belongs on your Mac.

AfterRay is a local-first computer-history app. This page separates what the app records from ordinary website and update requests.

What the app can record

After you grant macOS permissions, AfterRay can capture your screen, foreground-app Accessibility context, and optional system and microphone audio. Raw input events expire after 48 hours. You can exclude apps and websites, pause capture, and delete history.

Where app data is processed

Captures, OCR text, transcripts, search indexes, embeddings, and summaries are stored and processed on your Mac. AfterRay has no account system, product telemetry, or cloud-sync service.

The remote-model exception

Local models keep prompts and retrieved evidence on your Mac. If you configure Ollama or an OpenAI-compatible endpoint on another machine, the prompt and evidence required for that request are sent to that endpoint and follow its operator’s policies.

Website and download requests

afterray.com is served through Cloudflare. Page visits, downloads, and update checks create ordinary edge request logs such as path, time, IP address, and user agent. AfterRay uses aggregate request data without sending a device ID or install ID.
