    SwiftSearch

    SwiftSearch

    Searches NTFS volumes almost instantly

    SwiftSearch is a lightweight program whose purpose is to help you quickly find the files you need on your Windows machine without ever requiring you to index your drives. Most search utilities that achieve similar speeds do so by indexing drives while the computer is idle, but because idleness detection is so difficult to get right, in practice they end up slowing down the whole system just to speed up search. SwiftSearch works differently: given administrator privileges, it completely bypasses the file system (only NTFS supported) and reads the file table directly every time, which speeds up search by many orders of magnitude. Typically searches yield full results in ~10 seconds or less, a significant speedup for many users. As a bonus, this program also supports path-based search (for example, you can search for "*Program*\Windows*"), regular expressions (just start the search name with '>' character), and full directory sizes. Its goal is to be simple, swift, and intuitive to use.

    AI File Sorter

    AI File Sorter

    Local AI file organization with categorization and rename suggestions

    AI File Sorter is a cross-platform desktop application that uses AI to organize files and suggest meaningful file names based on real content, not just filenames or extensions. The app can analyze image files locally and propose human-readable rename suggestions (for example, IMG_2048.jpg → clouds_over_lake.jpg). It can also analyze the text content of documents to improve categorization and renaming. Supported formats include PDF, DOCX, XLSX, PPTX, ODT, ODS, ODP, and common text files. All suggestions are optional and must be reviewed before being applied. AI File Sorter helps clean up cluttered folders such as Downloads, external drives, or NAS storage. It can run fully offline using local AI models like Mistral 7B or LLaMA 3B. No files, images, document contents, or metadata are uploaded, and no telemetry is sent unless a remote AI endpoint is explicitly configured.

    Random File Picker

    Random File Picker

    Choose (and open) random files from random directories.

    Random File Picker can quickly choose and open random files from a set of directories. Files can be filtered so you can for example look only for images. The directories that you supply to RFP will be scanned for sub-directories (first a directory is chosen, then a file from it). In short it is a tool that makes decisions in your place.
