We’ve been building the infrastructure for this for the past few months as a sort of “MemoryKit” for iOS. It’s a LOT of hybrid on-device ML cloud VLM work. We’ve implemented most of the core Apple photos app functionality from scratch and have better performance across a lot of domains.
If you’re interested in building a personal memory engine, the most interesting life organization tool in consumer, and squeezing the absolute last bit of performance out of iPhone hardware, email me at tyler@patinasystems.com . I’m hiring ML backend engineers, full stack iOS engineers, and growth marketers, all of which have had experience launching 0-1 products.
