@_vojto In a comment above I think @emilypavlini gave some answers for this question. The biggest difference we see is that Meta provides a richer search based on file content, and also has the capability to search files on your local computer, not just in the cloud. If there's further you're wondering about, just let us know!

@hwk73 You're right, regex's are very powerful for expressing things like this! And you're also right that it's tricky to convey this sort of thing within a consumer product. As we look to expand the use cases for Meta, we'll definitely be looking into these sorts of additional features. Thanks so much for the input!

@hwk73 Yes! For files on your Desktop computer, we have a really flexible system where you can include or exclude any set of folders you want. This can be configured in the initial setup when you download the app, and modified in the preferences later. For cloud integrations, we're in the process of building this functionality. We currently have Google Drive and Dropbox in early testing and will be rolling them out fully soon, with support for other integrations soon to come!.
