About

BeaconFind is AI file search for Windows that runs entirely on your own machine. Press Ctrl+K and describe a file the way you would to a colleague, and it finds the document even when you cannot recall its name: "the rental contract with the deposit" finds scan0047.pdf. Ordinary search matches literal keywords, so "salary" misses a payslip that says "compensation", and a scanned PDF has no text to match at all. BeaconFind indexes what files are about. It reads 70+ file types including PDF, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, code and email, matches across 50+ languages so an English search finds a German document, and uses OCR to read text inside screenshots and scans. It also answers questions about your documents with citations and finds duplicates. Every AI model runs locally. Files, their contents, your searches and the index stay on the machine, and there is no telemetry. Only a licence check and an update check reach our server, and both can be firewalled.

About

"Everything" is search engine that locates files and folders by filename instantly for Windows. Unlike Windows search "Everything" initially displays every file and folder on your computer (hence the name "Everything"). You type in a search filter to limit what files and folders are displayed. "Everything" only indexes file and folder names and generally takes a few seconds to build its database. A fresh install of Windows 10 (about 120,000 files) will take about 1 second to index. Everything can search file content with the content, search function. File content is not indexed, searching content is slow. A fresh install of Windows 10 (about 120,000 files) will use about 14 MB of ram and less than 9 MB of disk space. 1,000,000 files will use about 75 MB of ram and 45 MB of disk space. Your search windows will reflect changes made to the file system. "Everything" will run on Windows XP, Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8 and Windows 10.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • It is so quick… I can’t believe after dealing with file explorer for 30 yrs that anything like this was possible.
  • Does exactly what it says, it finds any file on any drive instantly. Lightweight. Plugin for PowerToys.
  • In the beginning, it was the greatest search app I had ever seen. But now a few years later, it no longer even searches everywhere at all. Something I know is on one of my drives and the drive is not even searched. I found Wise Jet Search and it is as good as I used to think Everything was.

Cons

  • So far, I’m just using it to find duplicate folders stored on different drives and portable drives, so I have found no problems at all.
  • Doesn't search file contents. No simple "advanced search" (regex is not for beginners). I like the minimalistic UI, but it could do with some graphical updates and options. You can customize the colors in the results window but not the rest of the program.
  • It stopped searching EVERYWHERE. Thing I know are there are not found. Thankfully there are other alternatives to the Windows search.
