I'm building Vextore, and the idea came from a problem I kept running into: I could remember exactly what was inside a file, but not what I named it.
For example, I'd remember a clip of a car drifting through the desert, but have no idea it was called ManyClips.mov
So I'd either scroll through folders until I recognized it, or just give up and download it again.
I'm curious how other people deal with this:
Hi Product Hunt! I’m Axel, a 22-year-old Computer Engineering student from Sweden, and I’m starting my master’s in Data Science and AI. I also develop Blender add-ons and create VFX tutorials.
Vextore started with a problem on my own hard drive. I had thousands of clips, renders, sound effects, music tracks, images, and documents. Everything was organized into folders, but finding one particular file or moment was still painful.
I could remember “the clip where the car drifts past” or “that deep cinematic whoosh,” but not the filename or folder. Traditional search could not help because the information I remembered existed inside the file.
That is why I built Vextore. It lets you:
• Search photos, videos, audio, and documents by describing what you remember
• Find exact moments inside video and audio files
• Search using text or a reference image, video, audio file, or document
• MCP for agents to search for files and find moments inside files.
• Find non-spoken sounds such as footsteps, ambience, impacts, or whooshes
• Choose fully local processing so your files remain on your device
• Use cloud processing when your computer cannot comfortably run the local models
• Select a result and drag it directly into compatible editing software

Many existing tools focus on one or two media formats, rely on transcripts for audio, require a particular processing model, or provide search infrastructure rather than an accessible creative application. Vextore brings the complete workflow into one consistent search experience.
I spent the past year building Vextore independently alongside my studies. It is available for Windows, macOS, and Linux, with a free trial and a browser demo if you want to test the search before installing anything.
I would especially value feedback on the search quality, the local and cloud options, and how well Vextore fits your own media workflow. I’ll be here throughout the launch to answer questions. Thanks for checking it out!
