Trailback remembers the pages, files and screenshots on your Windows PC, so you can find anything by describing it. 100% offline. Windows 10 and 11, from the Microsoft Store.

Websites you visit, files you open, screenshots you take, text you copy. Trailback remembers it all, on your PC. Describe it, and Trailback finds it: the words inside PDFs, documents and screenshots count too, not only file names.


Pick a time, like "yesterday afternoon" or "last Friday at 3", and Trailback shows the pages, files and apps you had open, in order. One click reopens them all. Your whole computer history, searchable by time.

Recall is a good idea, but it needs a Copilot+ PC and it works by saving snapshots of your screen. Trailback gives you the "find it later" part on any Windows 10 or 11 PC, without recording your screen.
