Show HN: PixFinder – Free offline AI+OCR Image Search
TL;DR
Hi, HN! I’ve made a free Windows tool that lets you search your local images by what's in them, not the filename. It combines AI (SigLip2) search with OCR. It was made from specific need – quick search my meme collection for reaction meme in a huge collection.
Nauti's Take
If you want to test this, verify three things first: indexing time, search quality for German terms, and OCR language support on your actual files. The offline setup is genuinely useful for internal assets and receipts, but the source base is still just a Hacker News post, and the author already flags scaling limits and language bias.
