OmniFile is a lightning-fast desktop file search application designed for professionals who need to find files across local drives and cloud storage instantly. With a single keyboard shortcut (Ctrl+Space or Cmd+Space), users can search all their files in one unified interface — no more switching between Finder, File Explorer, Google Drive, Dropbox, and other apps.
Built with Rust and Tauri for native performance, OmniFile uses only ~30MB of RAM and installs in under 8MB, making it one of the most lightweight desktop search tools available. Despite its small footprint, OmniFile delivers powerful features including fuzzy search, content search inside documents (DOCX, XLSX, TXT), and real-time file indexing.
Key features include:
- Instant Search: Find any file in milliseconds with intelligent fuzzy matching
- Cloud Integration: Connect and search across 7 major cloud providers simultaneously — Google Drive, Dropbox, Box, SharePoint, Slack, Notion, and GitHub
- Smart Workspaces: Create custom workspaces to organize searches by project, folder, or file type
- Privacy-First Design: All file indexes are stored locally on your device — your data never leaves your computer
- Cross-Platform: Works consistently on both macOS and Windows
- Quick Actions: Open files, reveal in folder, copy paths — all from the keyboard
- Offline Support: Local file search works without internet; previously indexed cloud data remains accessible offline
OmniFile is ideal for developers searching source code across project folders, designers locating assets across cloud storage, content creators managing media files, and business professionals finding contracts and reports across SharePoint and Box.
OmniFile offers a generous free tier with unlimited local file search, file preview, and quick actions — no account or credit card required. The Pro tier ($129 one-time lifetime license) unlocks cloud storage integrations across all 7 providers with unlimited files and a 60-day money-back guarantee.
