I suspect it's Apple Silicon only because there are simple APIs that Apple has provided to take screenshots of the desktop and OCR text from images. I don't think OP necessarily built any low-level code from scratch here (not that their provided code isn't useful).
Someone else has previously looked into how Rewind.ai may be doing its thing under the hood and there are more details about it here: https://kevinchen.co/blog/rewind-ai-app-teardown/ https://kevinchen.co/blog/rewind-ai-app-teardown/ OP may have used some of the info there.
- Sakos 3y agoI think it's Apple only because OP made this on an Apple M1 and that's all he intended to support. As for OCR on Windows, there seems to be that functionality available on an OS level: https://medium.com/dataseries/using-windows-10-built-in-ocr-with-c-b5ca8665a14e https://medium.com/dataseries/using-windows-10-built-in-ocr-... There's a Power Toy that uses it, which is where I found out about it. I have no idea how it compares to Live Text or how good it is.
