Find it by what it said.

Savepad searches inside every page, PDF, email and note you save, reads the words in your screenshots, and opens the result on the bit that matched.

Full-text search01 / 06

Type the three words you remember.

Savepad keeps the text of everything you save: every page, PDF, email, note and code snippet. That pricing page with "pay as you grow" somewhere near the bottom? Search pay as you grow and there it is. Typos are fine.

  • Titles, notes, page text, PDFs, email bodies, code and video captions
  • Results show the words that matched
  • Press / or ⌘K from anywhere

Text in your images02 / 06

Search the words inside your screenshots.

Every image you save gets read with OCR on our own servers (Tesseract, no model, nothing leaves Savepad). The dashboard screenshot from Slack, the photo of a menu in Madrid, the ad with the headline you liked: search for any word in them and they turn up.

  • has:ocr shows only images with text found in them
  • The text it found is in the save’s panel, ready to copy

Filters03 / 06

Pages, in Work, tagged #saas, from the last 90 days.

Click the filter bar and add as many as you need: type, space, folder, tag, where it came from, colour and date. Four filters and you're down from 1,204 saves to the four you were after. Take one off with the x.

  • Filter by your own custom properties too
  • Save the lot as a view and you never build it again

Search by colour04 / 06

Pictures of shawarma with red in them.

That's a real search. Pick a swatch in the colour row and you get every save with that colour in it. The colours come from each save's own pixels, so nobody had to tag anything red. Add a word or two to narrow it down.

  • Images, screenshots, page snapshots and video thumbnails

Opens where it matched05 / 06

Found it on page 12? It opens on page 12.

Click a result and you land on the bit that matched: the right page of the PDF, the right line of the email. No more scrolling through a 48-page brand book for one sentence.

  • PDFs open on the page, emails scroll to the line

⌘K06 / 06

Press ⌘K and start typing.

Saves, spaces, folders, tags and saved views come up as you type, and so do the things you'd normally click for, like saving, importing, exporting or opening your public page. Enter goes there, Esc closes it. On Windows it's Ctrl K.

  • “Search everything” at the bottom runs a full search
  • Actions show their shortcut next to them

Or just type it.

Every filter has a word you can type straight into the search box. Mix as many as you want: type:image tag:ugc saved:30d.

FAQs

Does search use AI?

No, on purpose. It's full-text search that copes with typos, the kind databases have been good at for years. Savepad never sends your saves to a model, for search or anything else.

Does it search inside PDFs and emails?

Yes. Every page of a PDF and the whole body of an email, and results open on the page or the line that matched.

How long does OCR take on a new screenshot?

Usually a few seconds after you save it. The image shows up straight away and becomes searchable by its text as soon as the reading is done.

Is full-text search on the free plan?

Yes. Search, filters, OCR and colour search are on every plan.

Can I search in languages other than English?

Yes, search works on any language you save.
