Features

LumiFind is designed for maximum flexibility and customization, just like other MIDILLI products. We build tools that we use ourselves every day, ensuring they meet real-world needs and deliver a seamless experience.

Here are the features we have so far. The list may be incomplete:
  • AI-powered semantic search: Finds files by meaning, not just filename.
  • No expertise needed: Welcome Wizard helps you start optimal, with a few clicks.
  • 100% offline and private: All processing happens on your device. No cloud, no tracking.
  • Multi-language support: Search and results in 100+ languages.
  • Built-in OCR: Scanned documents are not a dead end — LumiFind falls back to OCR when a PDF has no selectable text, and can even read text directly out of images.
Bring your own model: Not locked into ours — use any compatible Hugging Face model for documents, images or voice. Supported file types:
  • Documents: PDF, DOC, DOCX, PPT, PPTX, XLS, XLSX, TXT, MD, RTF, ODT, EPUB, HTML
  • Images: JPG, PNG, JPEG
  • Audio: MP3, WAV, FLAC, OGG, M4A, AAC, OPUS, WMA, AIFF
  • Video: MP4, MKV, AVI, MOV, WEBM, FLV, WMV, MPEG, MPG, M4V, 3GP
  • Email messagesmessages: EML and MSG emails, including attachments
  • Source code
  • Compressed files: Extract and analyze documents inside
     ZIP and TAR archives (.zip, .tar, .tar.gz, .tgz, .tar.bz2)
Lightning fast: Searches millions of files in seconds. No cloud uploads: Your files are never sent to the cloud. Cross-platform: Works on Windows, macOS, and Linux. GPU acceleration: Have a capable graphics card? LumiFind can use it for noticeably faster indexing and searching. Console support: Works as a console application for remote servers without displays. Network & cloud drive support: Can analyze mapped drives (Dropbox, Google Drive, OneDrive, etc.). Excluding folders: Exclude one or more sub-folders to prevent LumiFind from analyzing these. Adding individual files for tracking: If you also have files scattered around your computer, you can also analyze them one-by-one and include during search. Incremental analysis: Only new or changed files are analyzed.
Pause/Resume analysis: If it will take too long, you can temporarily pause and continue later. Checkpoints and backups: In case of unexpected interruptions or computer restarts, resume where you left off. Moved/renamed file detection: Automatically detects moved or renamed files. File watching: If changes detected on the folders or individual files, analysis can be automatically started. Metadata search: Want to search for a file and you know its name or (partially) its path? LumiFind can also act as operating system's own search, but much faster. Search photos by location: Thanks to EXIF geocoding, find photos by where they were taken — type a country or city name, even in your own language. Object detection in videos: LumiFind analyzes video frames and recognizes objects in them, so you can search for scenes, not just filenames. Spelling mistake tolerance: Finds files even with typos. Context understanding: Understands context, not just keywords. One-time license: No subscription. Pay once, use forever. Transferable device license: Move your license to a new device. Optional common analysis data: If you have multiple users of same files, you can just analyze once and use together. Family & team licenses: Special packages for multiple devices. Secure payment: Pay via secure methods: Stripe (Credit Cards, Bank Transfer), PayPal, Google Pay, Amazon Pay. Automatic updates: Built-in updater checks for new versions and installs them for you. User-friendly interface: Fast, modern, and easy to use. Demo & documentation: Video demo and comprehensive user manual available.
