I’ve released File Brain, an open-source tool for searching your local files with the power of a modern search engine.

Unlike typical file explorers, it uses Typesense for typo-tolerant and semantic search, and Apache Tika to extract text from over 1000 formats (including OCR for images/PDFs). It operates entirely locally and is read-only, so it won't mess with your file structure.
