Re:Show HN: I made a Mac app to search my images and videos ... by stevenicr on Thursday May 16, 2024 @01:23PM (#40380860)
Same - I kicked the tired with "Image Scan OCR" from the windows app store I think.. it can do a whole folder (batch process) of pics and extract the text into the sidebar, which is nice.. but it would be nice if the text was exported into a searchable thing and the text was linked to the pic/filename it came from..

Of course I want to search for data in my photo downloads / screenshots folders and be able to pull / easily grab / copy the pic(s) to another folder or upload to a site and then paste the text..

I guess chaining this into notion / obsidian or similar would be beneficial as well.
