Search for stuff that's not in the transcripts! Your videos, recordings and documents are full of moments you can't find. GoldenRetriever.ai runs on your Mac and searches folders by what's shown as well as transcribed. Ask a question, land on the exact moment – with sources and timestamps. Find a scene from a recording. Pull up photos by theme. Check whether your insurance policy covers something, even when it's in German and you're searching in English. Free for your first 100 files.














"Find every wedding kiss shot from the last three years."
"Find the photo of the red car at golden hour."
"Find that screenshot of vertical tab navigation I saved in spring."
"Which interview mentioned pricing pushback?"
"Find me that French Airbnb screenshot, travel docs, foreign tax forms, expat paperwork, German rental contracts."
"I know I wrote this somewhere"
Journalists. Interview audio, source docs, photos. The kind of thing where a reporter has 40 hours of recordings from one investigation.
Researchers / academics. PDFs of papers, lecture recordings, slide decks. "Which image said the sample size was 283?"
Co-built this with @felixvelarde . Quick context on what makes it different from the obvious comparisons:
Your files stay on your machine. The only thing leaving is the embedding call to Gemini, using your own API key. We don't host, process, or see your content.
Where it's surprised me most, video and audio:
"Find the moment in the customer interview where they pushed back on pricing"
"Which slide showed EBIT in the Q3 board recording"
"Find the bit in the family video where dad and grandma were both laughing"
Plus the obvious wins:
The screenshot graveyard everyone has, suddenly searchable by what's in the image
Cross-language: ask a German PDF a question in English
Happy to answer anything technical: RAG pipeline, why Gemini, local-first tradeoffs. 🦮
