aigclink · x · 2026-10-14
DigUp (MIT-licensed, 2.6k GitHub stars) lets you search files on your Mac by describing what's inside them — photos, PDFs, recordings, videos and code — fully on-device using Google DeepMind's multimodal EmbeddingGemma 2 with llama.cpp for local inference.
- Requires Apple Silicon and macOS 14+, free and open source
- Menu bar app with a local-first semantic search design
- Windows and Linux versions on the way
