Product overview
What is Pieces?
Pieces is an AI memory layer for modern work. It runs in the background on a computer and forms a searchable timeline from activity across research, chats, email, notes, meetings, documents, design work, AI tools, and development environments. The goal is to help users recover earlier context, resume interrupted work, and turn what already happened into useful answers or new material.
The timeline organizes activity chronologically and lets users search or filter by time, source, topic, person, or tool. Pieces can use that context to generate stand-up updates, morning briefs, meeting preparation, day recaps, and other summaries. The website states that memories are saved on the user's device by default and that capture can be paused or disabled for selected apps and websites.
