A SaaS file indexing and search tool that can index a user's NAS, perform OCR and metadata extraction on files, and provide a searchable interface to the content
Built for Users with a NAS or large local file storage who need to easily search and access the contents of their files.
The receipts — real demand
“I am looking for something that can index my NAS and provide a interface to search contents of files. Processing images and doing OCR/Metadata extraction for files, listing contents of archives, etc. I know SOLR can do this separately but it is more a library then a tool. Is there an open source tool that does this? I was thinking about making my own but I figure someone has to have something like this already. ”
