SeekFast lets you search through documents in a selected folder and all its subfolders with just a few clicks. It is built for fast everyday work: choose a folder, let SeekFast process the files, and then run repeated searches instantly in the same folder. If you often work with the same folders, SeekFast remembers them so you can reopen them in a second.

SeekFast ranks results by relevance, similar to Google or Bing, so the best matches appear at the top. Results are grouped by file, which makes them easy to scan. If needed, you can also sort results by date or file name.

SeekFast is not limited to simple single-word searches. It can find combinations of words and phrases, including cases where the words are separated or appear across nearby sentences. You can also refine your search with useful options such as case sensitive search, exact word matching, any of words, search in file names, and include subfolders.

SeekFast shows the exact sentence where your search terms appear and highlights the matching words, so you can spot the right result immediately. With one click, you can expand the result and view a larger part of the text without opening the file. In many cases, this is enough to find the information you need right away.

When you find the right result, just click the file name to open the document in its associated application. You can also open the containing folder directly from the search results, which makes it easy to continue working with the file in File Explorer or Finder.

On Windows, you can launch SeekFast directly from File Explorer. Just right-click a folder and choose "Search with SeekFast..." The folder will open in SeekFast immediately, so you can start searching without first opening the program and browsing manually.

SeekFast gives you two ways to search. In SeekFast search engine mode, it processes the selected folder and delivers the best relevance ranking and the most accurate text context. On Windows, you can also use Windows index mode for immediate searching across very large indexed locations. In its own search mode, SeekFast does not run background indexing, so your computer stays responsive when the program is not open.

If you work with the same folders regularly, SeekFast helps you save time. Recently searched folders are available from the folder list, and reopening them is almost instant. When files have changed, you can reload the folder and SeekFast will update only the changed, new, or deleted files instead of processing everything from the beginning.

SeekFast can search across a wide range of file types, including Microsoft Word, PDF, Excel, PowerPoint, OpenOffice, LibreOffice, LaTeX, Rich Text Format, WordPerfect, email files, ebook files, source code files, and many other text-based formats. You can also choose which file types to include, so you can narrow the search and get results faster.

SeekFast can import search terms from a CSV file and export results to text or CSV. This is especially useful when you need to search for many keywords, review results later, or build lists of matching files for research, audit, compliance, or document management work.
