I built GoldenRetriever.ai after years of recording client work and realising how little of it I could actually retrieve.
There were hundreds of hours of calls, workshops and demos sitting in folders. The useful parts were always inside the video or on the screen, and transcripts never helped much in finding them again. I wanted a way to ask a question and land on the exact moment that answered it.
GoldenRetriever.ai runs on your machine and turns those archives into something you can search properly. It understands what was shown, what was said and how it connects across files, then returns answers with sources and timestamps so you can go straight to the original context.
It’s available with a free tier for up to 100 files, which is enough to try it on a real project.
I’m here for questions and feedback, especially on how it fits into your existing workflows.
Co-built this with @felixvelarde . Quick context on what makes it different from the obvious comparisons:
Your files stay on your machine. The only thing leaving is the embedding call to Gemini, using your own API key. We don't host, process, or see your content.
Where it's surprised me most, video and audio:
"Find the moment in the customer interview where they pushed back on pricing"
"Which slide showed EBIT in the Q3 board recording"
"Find the bit in the family video where dad and grandma were both laughing"
Plus the obvious wins:
The screenshot graveyard everyone has, suddenly searchable by what's in the image
Cross-language: ask a German PDF a question in English
