Features

Search by vibe,
not filename.

Your camera roll doesn't speak IMG_2034_HDR.jpg. Neither should your search.

Speak human

Describe a scene, a mood, a color, a feeling. Hefty Search understands what you mean. "Golden hour at the beach" just works.

Inside your videos

Hefty Search looks at what's happening in your footage, so the clip you're after surfaces right next to your photos.

Private by design

Everything is indexed and searched entirely on your Mac. No uploads, no account, no servers. Airplane mode approved.

One keystroke away

Summon a translucent search bar over any app with a global shortcut. Find it, hit return, back to work.

Instant

Results appear as you type, even across libraries with hundreds of thousands of files. Built native for Apple Silicon.

Lives with your files

Point Hefty Search at any folders you choose. Nothing is moved, duplicated, or reorganized.

Hit the shortcut and describe the moment you remember. The file finds you.

Privacy

Your memories never leave your Mac. Ever.
