Filescape turns any folder into a semantic terrain — documents, images, and notes settling into a landscape you can read at a glance. Entirely on your Mac.
Reads locally. Point filescape at a folder. Files stay where they are; it reads text and images in place and keeps a small index on your Mac.
Embeds. Each document becomes a vector — by default with a local model running on your Mac, or with a provider you choose.
Contours by density. A 2D projection lays the vectors out as terrain, with contour lines where documents cluster and a label on each cluster.
Your files never leave your Mac. Filescape indexes them in place, and with the default local models nothing is sent anywhere. If you choose a cloud provider for embeddings, the content being embedded is sent to that provider — and nothing else is.
Filescape is built on the Latent Lab engine from the Viral Communications Group at the MIT Media Lab.
