Most AI media tools want your data in the cloud. Invenio is built for your Mac. It gives your AI local access to your video and photo libraries. Type "man on a bike" – it finds the exact frame, understands the context, and lets you drag it directly into Premiere or Final Cut. No cloud, no tracking, 100% local via Apple Neural Engine. Works with TBs on external drives. Visual search and OCR are completely free.
Hey Product Hunt! 👋
I'm Igor, the maker of Invenio.
I’m the kind of person who has "External_Drive_1", "2", and "3" filled with years of raw footage and photos. Whenever I needed "that one shot of a sunset" or a specific slide from a recorded Zoom call, I’d spend hours scrubbing through timelines.
I loved the search power of Google Photos, but I didn't want to upload terabytes of my private life or professional work to the cloud just to make it searchable.
That’s when it clicked: My Mac already has a powerful Neural Engine. Why can't it just "watch" and index my videos for me, locally?
So I built Invenio. It handles the heavy lifting on-device, meaning your files never leave your machine.
What it does for you:
• Visual Search: Find moments by simply describing them (e.g., "dog playing on a beach").
• Speech Search: Search for any words spoken in the video to find the exact moment instantly.
• Pro Workflow: Once you find the shot, just drag and drop it straight into Premiere, Final Cut, or DaVinci.
Visual search and OCR are completely free and unlimited.
I’m an indie dev and I’d love to hear your honest thoughts! If you’d like to try the Pro features (Voice Search), let me know in the comments and I’ll send you a promo code for full access.
