Hi HN, Floxtop is a native macOS app that organizes files and images by their content — not just their names. It runs fully offline on Apple Silicon, with no servers, no cloud, and no data leaving your machine.

Problem: My Downloads and Desktop folders would fill up with PDFs, screenshots, and random files, making cleanup and finding the right file frustrating and time-consuming. Solution: Floxtop uses Sentence Transformers (SBERT) to embed document text and metadata, plus OCR and object recognition to read images. It groups and classifies files by semantic similarity — all locally, so your sensitive files (finance, medical, personal, etc.) stay private.

Current version: Supports 30+ file types including images, Office documents (Word, Excel, PowerPoint), PDFs, EPUBs, Markdown, CSV, and more. Parsing and classifying 50 files takes around 17 seconds. It integrates with Finder (right-click > Organize with Floxtop), Quick Look + thumbnails, and includes keyboard shortcuts for a fast workflow. Currently, Intel Macs are not supported and it only works with English-language files.

I launched an early beta ~3 months ago, Fallinorg (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=44932375), and have since built out more features based on user feedback. I’d love your feedback on classification workflows, missing features, pricing, usability, and potential bulk operations or integrations. Happy to answer questions and share implementation details!

Hi, this looks really cool and its a smarter way to solve an issue I've had for a long time. Couple of questions:

1. My preferred installation method is through `brew`, would you consider adding it as and install option?

2. Any plans of supporting multiple languages?

3. Can it move files to mounted folders? I use google drive for most of my admin stuff and their client allows to mount the drive.
