# LocalSynapse

> Use this tool when you need to quickly locate specific files on your local device without an internet connection. LocalSynapse solves the problem of inefficient file searching by utilizing a hybrid search algorithm that combines BM25 and semantic search, allowing for accurate results across all document types. It accepts file directories as input and returns a list of relevant files as output, making it ideal for use cases where offline access to information is crucial.
