What is Omni Search?
Search every file on your Mac by meaning. Text, code, PDFs, images, audio, and video in one vector space - searched in any language, entirely on-device.
Features:
- One space for every file: Text, code, PDFs, images, audio, and video are embedded into a single vector space. A text query matches them all - including scanned pages.
- Any language: Languages share that same space, so a query in one finds files in another. Search in English, match notes in German, Chinese, or Japanese.
- Local and private: Indexing and search run on your Mac. Files never leave the device. No accounts, no telemetry, no network at query time.
- Native to macOS: List and Gallery views, real QuickLook thumbnails, drag and drop, and filters by kind, folder, and score.
Private by design. Everything stays on your Mac.
Omni runs a native MLX-Swift port of jina-embeddings-v5-omni in-process, on the Apple silicon GPU. The model downloads once; after that, Omni works offline.
Give your local agents search.
Omni exposes its search over your indexed files as a local endpoint - loopback-only and token-guarded. Agents like Hermes and OpenClaw query your files by meaning, on your machine, with no cloud round-trip.
- Search endpoint: The same semantic search the app uses, over the index you already built - how agents actually reach your files.
- Embeddings · add-on: Raw vectors too, via OpenAI-, Jina-, Cohere-, and Gemini-compatible APIs.
Search with any file, find any file.
Every file - image, audio, video, text - lands in one shared vector space, so a query is just another file. Drop in a photo to find related screenshots, a voice memo to surface where it came from, a PDF to pull up everything near it. Right-click any result and choose Find Similar, or drop a file onto the search. One model, one space, any direction.
How fast is Omni on your Mac?
