I've been so swamped with sorting materials lately, I almost hit a wall. To tackle this, I've been actively searching for efficient tools and would greatly appreciate any recommendations you might have. In the meantime, I've developed a little tool that uses AI to automatically rename files based on their content. For example, a file named "aaa111.pdf" can be effortlessly transformed into "2023 User Interview Summary.pdf" after the tool analyzes its contents. Below, you'll find some images showcasing this functionality. I'm excited to share this creation with you all! :) For now, my focus has been primarily on PDFs, but I envision extending this tool's capabilities to various file types by incorporating OCR and image recognition technologies. The tool, albeit in its nascent stage and in need of further refinement, is available for anyone interested in contributing or providing feedback. I wrote this small script myself, and I'm sharing it here. If anyone has recommendations for more polished tools, please let me know in the comments. If there aren't more sophisticated tools available, then I will consider enhancing my product further. I'm eager to hear your thoughts and suggestions!

I sure could use some platform based (i.e. Not Google) image categorization. FOSS, preferably. I have so many images that desperately need to be identified simply as “tree”, “sunset” or whatever. I use the ios search for entertainment; it’s so scary awful. No OCR needed yet, though I recall some software that I can’t find that does a very simple renaming of PDF’s. Useful for those numeric arxiv articles, and the infinitely-obfuscated sheet music downloads from imslp.org.

Real magic for me would be a simple breaking up of musical scores into sections 1,2,3,4 and so on. I am currently scrolling through the entire work to bookmark the sections, and print them out separately as pdf’s.

Just throwing that out. I haven’t looked yet at your github. Been terribly busy today. Will give it a look-see. Thanks for posting it here.
