Seerware
Seerware develops software, tools, and technical R&D in search, retrieval, local LLM workflows, and AI-assisted systems.
The focus is practical intelligence augmentation: building tools that help people find, organise, and work with information more effectively.
Current work is centered on Recollector, a document search and reporting tool for local files, alongside broader work in generative AI, RAG, agent-oriented systems, and programmable systems.
What Seerware Does
Seerware works across:
- search and retrieval
- local and remote LLM workflows
- agent-oriented systems
- knowledge tools
- programmable systems
- applied AI product design
Recollector
Recollector is a local-first document search and reporting tool.
It indexes documents from folders you choose, keeps them searchable, and helps turn retrieved source material into structured reports without forcing you into a cloud workflow.
Key features include:
- Fast local document indexing and search
- Automatic monitoring of local document collections
- Evidence-based reporting grounded in source material
- Native desktop workflow for search, review, and reporting
- Local AI support for offline use
- AMD and NVIDIA GPU support on Windows
Recollector is under active development, with Windows as the first release target and macOS and Linux planned.
