Floxtop is a native macOS app that organizes your files automatically using an on-device AI model, with no data leaving your machine. It focuses on privacy, speed, and usability.

Background:

Manual file organization is tedious, and traditional tools rely on filenames or metadata, missing file meaning. Floxtop uses Sentence Transformers and computer vision including OCR and transformer-based embeddings to analyze content across PDFs, images, Office files, EPUBs, CSV, Markdown and more (30+ formats supported).

Key features:

- Entirely offline AI inference, optimized for Apple Silicon, ensuring privacy and near-instant processing.

- Multi-format content understanding via OCR and semantic embeddings to group files by meaning including images, Microsoft Office, PDFs, EPUBs, CSV, Markdown and more (+30 file types supported).

- Customizable classification: define categories to define file destinations.

- Native macOS integration with Finder extensions and Quick Look previews.

Performance:

Floxtop categorizes files in under a second. Built in Swift with ONNX, the app is compact (~120 MB) with a powerful 94 MB model.

I launched an early beta, Fallinorg (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=44932375), reaching 103 customers and gathering valuable feedback. Floxtop is the improved iteration with broader format support, compact binary size, and better integration.

I’d appreciate feedback on accuracy, performance, and feature ideas.

Thanks for checking it out!
