Actually came here to mention rewind, too.

It’s simply put a groundbreaking game changer for me.

Be it finding text in conversations, using it to recall the face of an applicant when their name doesn’t ring a bell, find code, find text in websites you visited, going back to make sure your eyes didn’t trick you, …

I recently started to enable closed captions in all applicant interviews so I can search for specific terms I recall after the fact.

Truly amazing.

How does it work when a simple search returns too much data? Or is that an edge case? I think that if you used Rewind for several years, the amount of hits a specific search would return is insane (for example, searching for "dog", if you remember seeing a specific dog breed some time ago, but not sure when or where)
