Chronicles · for macOS

You made it. You keep it.

Chronicles pulls your images and videos from Replicate, fal, Midjourney, ComfyUI and more onto your Mac. Prompt included. And finds them again, even if all you remember is what they looked like.

Sound familiar?

Made. Saved. Gone.

01

The link is dead.

Replicate deletes after one hour, Runway after two days. Then all that’s left is a 404.

02

The prompt is gone.

Somewhere in a tab, in Discord or in a note. Recreate it? Good luck.

03

Nobody knows the cost.

Three cents here, a subscription there. What that one image cost, nobody can tell.

How it works

Generated. Already saved.

  1. 01

    You generate as usual.

    In Replicate, fal, Runway or ComfyUI. Chronicles watches in the background.

  2. 02

    Chronicles grabs the original.

    Before the link expires, the file is on your Mac.

  3. 03

    Everything stays attached.

    Prompt, model, cost, date. Exactly as you sent it.

Plugins

Your library. Inside your apps.

Chronicles doesn’t just live in its own window. Small extensions bring your images right where you’re working. They only talk to Chronicles on your computer, never through a cloud.

BrReady

Adobe Bridge

Your library as a panel. Search, copy the prompt, open in Photoshop.

PsReady

Photoshop

Open any image from Chronicles in Photoshop with one click.

PrReady

Premiere Pro & After Effects

One panel for both. “Add to project” drops the original into your project.

FiBeta

Figma

Place an image from your library straight onto the canvas.

Chronicleson your Mac
DRReady

DaVinci Resolve

A collection or your latest images into the Media Pool. Needs Resolve Studio.

FCBeta

Final Cut Pro

Export a collection as an event. Double-click, done.

ChReady

Chrome

Describe any image in your browser, locally. The prompt lands in your clipboard.

iPReady

iPhone & iPad

Your library on phone and tablet, on the same Wi-Fi.

Connect once with a code from the settings. Ready = tested. Beta = works, still being refined. In progress = coming.

From the manifesto
Craftsmanship creates quality, but it is the mechanism that makes it repeatable.

01

Knows, doesn’t guess

Chronicles gets prompt and cost straight from the service. Other apps only see a JPG.

02

Stays on your Mac

No account, no cloud, no tracking. Your experiments are nobody’s business.

03

Works in the background

Saving, tagging, describing. Nothing for you to start.

04

Yours for good

Pay once. No subscription that locks you out a year later.

Honestly

This doesn’t work yet.

  • Mac only.

    Chronicles is macOS-only for now.

  • Your own keys needed.

    For Replicate, fal and co. you need your API key. Folders, Midjourney and ComfyUI work without.

  • Not every service gives everything.

    fal and Runware only share part of the history. For Runway and Higgsfield you see what you start from Chronicles.

  • Local AI needs a model service.

    Such as Ollama or LM Studio. Without one there are no automatic tags, everything else still works.

Get started

Three steps. Then it runs.

  1. Download

    Open the DMG, drag Chronicles into Applications.

  2. Connect

    Pick a folder or add a key. One folder is enough to start.

  3. Sit back

    Chronicles fetches everything and builds your search.

Made in Ravensburg, Germany

Built because I needed it myself.

I generate with several services every day. I asked one provider whether it could keep my images and prompts for good. The answer was no. So I built Chronicles.

I use it myself every day. If something’s missing, I’m the first to notice.

FAQ

Quick answers.

Do I need API keys?

No. Folders, Midjourney downloads and ComfyUI work right away. Connect services whenever you want.

Does anything go to the cloud?

No, everything stays on your Mac. Only if you want tags from Gemini does an image go to Google, with your own key. The licence check sends only your purchase key and a random device number.

What happens after 14 days?

Chronicles becomes the free Student version. Nothing gets deleted.

Why not Eagle or a folder?

They only see an image file. Chronicles knows how the image was made.

Does it work offline?

Yes. You only need a connection to fetch from the services. The licence checks itself about every 30 days, and without a connection everything keeps working.

Videos too?

Yes. Videos, PDFs and audio. You find videos through automatic descriptions, which needs a local AI model, for example via Ollama or LM Studio.

Keep making images. Chronicles keeps them.

Coming soon for macOS.
