What is Localsynapse?

Localsynapse is a Windows desktop application that provides AI-powered local search for files and email. It indexes documents and email using hybrid full-text (BM25) and semantic (local AI embeddings) search, and exposes a built-in MCP server so AI assistants like Claude can query the index and read structured file contents—all on your own machine, without sending data to the cloud.

How to use Localsynapse?

Download the latest installer from the GitHub Releases page and run it. Indexing and search happen automatically; the built-in MCP server is ready for your AI assistant to connect.
