About Screenshot Search Engine

Have hundreds of screenshots of receipts, memes, or notes, and can't find the one you need? The Screenshot Search Engine uses advanced WebAssembly OCR (Optical Character Recognition) to read the text inside your images directly in your browser. Just drop your image folder in, let it index, and search for any word or phrase. 100% offline, private, and lightning fast.

Features

• Bulk Processing: Drop dozens or hundreds of screenshots at once.
• 100% Privacy: Images are NEVER uploaded to any server. AI runs locally.
• Instant Search: Find specific text with real-time highlighting.
• Visual Results: See the exact screenshot containing your search query.
• No Software Needed: Works completely inside your modern web browser.

How to Use

1. Click the upload zone and select multiple screenshots (or a whole folder).
2. Wait for the local OCR engine to index the text inside the images.
3. Type a keyword in the search bar (e.g., 'invoice total', 'funny meme').
4. Hover over the matching screenshots to see the exact text found.
5. Click on the 'View Full Image' button to open the original screenshot.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this upload my private photos to the cloud?

No! The OCR AI (Tesseract.js) is downloaded to your browser and runs locally on your machine. Your images never leave your device.

How many images can I search at once?

You can load hundreds of images, but processing time depends entirely on your computer's CPU speed. We recommend doing batches of 50-100 for older laptops.

Why is it missing some text?

OCR technology isn't perfect. It works best on clear, high-contrast text. Blurry images or heavily stylized fonts might not be read perfectly.
