Five files. No clear final.
Automatic version history for creative work
Know what changed. Find any version.
Chronicle keeps a history of your creative images as you work. It explains each change in plain English, so you can find and restore the version you need in seconds.
Available for Windows and macOS
Why Chronicle
Five files. One campaign. No clear final.
Every revision becomes another filename until nobody knows which file to open. Chronicle lets each asset remain one clean working file.

How it works
Choose a folder. Keep creating.
Chronicle works in the background. Each save becomes a version you can understand, find, and restore.
Your tools stay exactly where they are.
Choose the folder once, then keep saving from Photoshop, Blender, or the creative tool you already use.
The save becomes a version.
Chronicle records it locally in the background. Nothing waits for AI, and earlier versions remain untouched.
Remember the idea, not the filename.
Chronicle explains the visual change, then search finds the version from ordinary words like “the version with the tagline.”
Go back without losing what came after.
Restoring version 6 creates a new version 9. The full creative history remains intact.

Made for real work
Your creative history stays yours.
Chronicle saves every version on your computer, even while you are offline. AI is optional and uses your own provider key, stored securely on your device. If you save while offline, Chronicle adds the explanation when you reconnect. No account is required. If you choose to sign in, settings sync and encrypted key backup can be enabled separately.
Built with IBM Bob
From first plan to working product.
We used IBM Bob to plan Chronicle, build its core features, test real creative workflows, solve integration problems, and prepare the app for release.
