About ScreenSorts

ScreenSorts is an offline-first screenshot organizer specifically designed for macOS that functions as a 'second brain' for your digital memory. It uses local AI and on-device vision models to make every pixel of your screenshots searchable. The utility features semantic search, OCR (Optical Character Recognition), automatic tagging, and URL detection, all while ensuring total privacy by processing data entirely on the Apple Neural Engine without cloud or API dependencies.

How to Use

Install the app on macOS 13+. Once running, it lives in your menu bar. It automatically indexes your screenshots using local AI. You can then use the search bar to find images using natural language, hit Space for native Quick Look previews, or copy text and links directly from the images.

Key Features

  • Semantic Search using natural language queries and vector embeddings
  • On-device OCR for instant text extraction from images
  • Automatic AI Tagging using local vision models
  • Auto-detect clickable URLs within screenshots
  • Intelligent Space Saver with up to 70% storage reduction
  • Visual similarity analysis for duplicate detection
  • Zero-Upload Promise with 100% offline processing

Use Cases

  • Finding a specific receipt or chart buried in your files using natural language
  • Copying terminal error codes directly from a screenshot into an IDE
  • Turning a library of design inspiration into a clickable web archive
  • Organizing cluttered desktops by automatically categorizing screenshots by app and date
