Overview

remio captures what passes through your work, web pages, files, emails, messages and meeting recordings, stores it locally and organises it without manual filing. Ask remio searches it conversationally, and the surrounding tools cover deep research, presentations, spreadsheets, YouTube summaries and podcast transcription.

Local storage is the decision that distinguishes it. A second brain accumulates everything you read and everyone you spoke to, which is the most sensitive corpus most people will ever assemble, and keeping it on the machine changes the risk profile entirely. The BYOK plan goes further by letting you supply your own model keys.

It runs on Windows, Apple silicon Macs, iOS, Android and Chrome. Free gives 500 AI credits a month with unlimited page capture, then $11.60 a month on the current 30 percent promotion, $199 a year at list, with Plus and Max above it. Credit metering means heavy use climbs tiers quickly, promotional pricing is not the real price, and automatic capture of everything is only useful if retrieval is good enough to find it again.
