What Is OmniFile?

OmniFile is a cross-platform desktop file search application that lets you find any file instantly — whether it lives on your local hard drive, Google Drive, Dropbox, SharePoint, or other cloud services. Unlike macOS Spotlight (which only works on Mac) or Everything (which only works on Windows), OmniFile provides a unified search experience across both operating systems and multiple cloud storage providers.

Trigger OmniFile with a global keyboard shortcut, type your query, and see results from all your connected sources in milliseconds. Built with a Rust-powered search engine, OmniFile indexes your files locally for zero-latency results while keeping your data private and under your control.

Key Features

Instant Local File Search

Pre-indexed search powered by Tantivy delivers results with zero latency. Find documents, images, code, and any file type in milliseconds.

7+ Cloud Integrations

Search Google Drive, Dropbox, Box, SharePoint, Slack, Notion, and GitHub from one search bar. Connect with secure OAuth2 authentication.

Full-Text Search

Search inside file contents, not just filenames. Supports DOCX, XLSX, plain text, and more. Find that one paragraph buried in a 50-page document.

Smart Workspaces

Organize your searches by project, folder, or file type. Create custom workspaces to filter results and stay focused on what matters.

Privacy-First Architecture

All file indexes are stored locally on your device. No file contents are ever uploaded to external servers. Your data stays yours.

Lightweight and Fast

Only 11 MB install size and 30 MB RAM at idle. Built with Rust for native performance — no Electron bloat. Ready to search in 60 seconds.

Supported Cloud Services

OmniFile connects to the cloud platforms you already use. Authenticate once with secure OAuth2, and your files appear alongside local results.
